The U-B (in the person of Sheila) wants to know if I’ll write an article about learning to bake ‘artisan’ breads! Whee!

That was one of my goals last winter too!

“Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day” is now my bread cookin’side kick

I’m ashamed to admit what “Dutch oven” first made me think of. It wasn’t bread.

I am a cheater – I have a bread machine.

water, honey, oatmeal, olive oil, bread flour, yeast…and I have bread in 3.5 hours.

I use mine once a week, sometimes two.

and the machine doesn’t heat up the house like an oven – great for the times when it is over 90 degrees outside (like right now).

I liked my bread machine for making pizza dough. -m

Good point! *lol* -m

No knead bread is AWESOME and EASY–totally the way to go. It takes time, but only in the sense that a garden takes time–you do a little something, it grows. Then you you do a little something more. Easy! Check out this site for some good videos (which really help): http://www.breadtopia.com/

Yum! Breads! -m

Bread is not hard to make. All you need is time. I’m taking the cheater’s way out and making rolls for a thing tonight from frozen dough. Hard to believe, but I think I am screwing them up. Should have started from scratch.

I had a bread machine; it made mediocre bread. I don’t like mediocre bread. -m
