I have been making my own bread for the last couple of years. Finally I have got it just right. It is easy to make bread that is OK but now I feel that I have perfected it. My last batch was chillie bread, this I can recommend if you like chillies. Todays batch was even better, not chillies but sunflower seeds. The texture is the best I have achieved. I know this is nothing to do with engineering but as I live alone I wanted to share my happiness. |

Well Norman my wife says it is sort of engineering ! I'm happy for you - enjoy your bread |

I think that's great! My wife works as a copy editor for Cook's Illustrated and they make quite a big deal about the science of cooking, and particularly baking. |

Norman Sounds good and now your making me hungry. I used to make my own bread but haven't for a while. Maybe it's time to start again. Care to share your recipe? :D :D Cheers :beer: Don |

I agree the sunflower mix is really good. The loaf I baked yesterday was a 50/50 mix of the sundried tomato and chili flour mixed equally with a white crusty bread mix. I've had bacon butties with it this morning :drool: and a couple of doorstep corned beef and seed mustard sarnies this evening. I intend to start a sourdough culture and give that a try soon....OZ. |
