      How much do you reckon you pay per loaf, G?.. I only eat organic sourdesem bread, but shit's epensive… If I  buy dinkel bread with nuts or fruit, it's not exceptional to pay 5-6/ bread... Usually pay around 3 though... But wondering how hard it is (for an eejit) to make your own bread...

        It is seriously easy, but a little time consuming.

        My organic white flour costs me the equivalent of €1.30 to make 2 large loaves.  I do not buy yeast as I made the starter, which is effectively a culture of naturally occurring yeasts.  You will need to feed the starter from time to time, so need to add a little wholemeal (in my case) flour, so a few cents there.

        Other than that a little salt, some oil (optional), some rye flour for dusting and power…..

                Organic, rennet free cheese with Gosport sourdough bread. You were right, G: it's even better lightly toasted!..

                      Oh Fuck, this is my thread. A collection of tasties from the last year or so. If you girls like this maybe I'll post some real pics later.

                        Now that is what this thread is about.  Beautifully cooked food, well presented.  Thanks @Zentner

                        I'd love to know where you get the human head from….

                            @Giles The human head is an inside joke that I just assumed everyone would get. Has Game of Thrones not made its way to the UK yet?

                            Also… this is the size of that steak before cooking. I don't have real big hands but still...

                              GOT has made it here, but watching TV is so low down my list of "great things to do" that I did not see it when it was on TV.  We have a few series of GOT on DVD and I have watched some with Paula (when Dylan was here), but it's in one ear and out the other…...
