Bread - What are you baking today…..

[Giles]

I have the oval one of these. Love it

[worn2fade]

Not sure if using a bread maker is blasphemy on this thread lol, but I was gifted one in my and my fiancee’s apartment warming and this thing is killer. Got my own recipe and all.

Making bread tonight for my wedding tomorrow, we’re doing communion with home made bread.

@worn2fade nothing to worry, if it works and creates a testy bread why not. Happy wedding day!

[Lynne]

@worn2fade Congratulations - have a beautiful day! Do share your recipe (I have a bread maker too )

@Giles I have a Steve who makes a mean pair of STF stretchy lounge trousers to eat bread in. Your bread, his loungewear - a perfect combo️

@Chap How long will you work with your starter before using?

It's a wholemeal rye starter. Grounded the flour and started it yesterday morning. Will feed it now until the weekend and want to use it then for a hybrid leavening dough

@Chap best of luck although it’s science and should be straight forward. I’ve contemplated doing a proper starter myself, but worry about finding the time to do it correctly. I believe @neph93 dabbled in sourdough for a bit and had success.

Might be the kick in the pants to start one myself

Thank you.

I did not do sourdoughs since the plague so it is a new start for me. I hope for more predictability with the Sourhouse.

Today’s bake is a wholemeal rye poolish with french T80 and italian Manitoba 80/20 in the final dough

My first ever baked item, toasted almond and chocolate biscotti. I prefer the more simple anise flavored cookies but I wanted to make something Darci & Millie would eat. A little rough but not bad

@Giles did another run of his famous Japanese Milk Bread. Can’t wait to taste it.
