Have you tried baking bread and it was just always a brick? That’s been my past experience. Like everyone else stuck at home since March I tried my hand at baking bread. I started with something easy. A recipe from PBS of all places. On a sidetrack I’m OBSESSED with PBS. I use this app the most on my Apple TV. How did I NOT know there were recipes too?
It’s called no Knead Bread and it’s the easiest thing ever. You can make this as long as your yeast isn’t expired or you even have yeast. Apparent yeast was another COVID phenomenom of items hoarded or a result of a low supply chain, it was right up there with toilet paper and flour missing from the shelves.
I did try my hand many times at making sourdough bread. It’s the starter, it’s just to much for my mind to remember to feed everyday and then every week. Perhaps if I got a pet maybe i’d be more scheduled and remember this. The one time I did make great starter my bread turned out flat and dense. So I at the moment I’ve once again given up on that. One day I’ll get it right, just not today.
Fresh from the oven, cooled slightly so when you slice it crunches and slathered with butter, it really doesn’t get any better than that. You can do it, it’s about to turn colder, we hope for you in Cali really soon. Temperatures on the East Coast are still a bit warm, but it’s changing, and I can’t wait to bake through my second Winter in New York
