You all seem to be such proficient chefs. Well here is a place to share some of that cooking knowledge. Or do you have a cooking problem? Ask away. Jams and chutneys go here too.

Artisan bread

Post: # 83355Post romany123 »

One of the things we've always done in our house is make everything from scratch from pastry, Pasta, to sauces, and also including bread, (In the good!! Old days I used to hand make bread, now I use a dough hook and the national grid)


I did have a copy of this somewhere else on my computer, but I'm dammed if I can find it. So if I miss any stages out, or you don't understand them please let me know
I'm quite happy to discuss different types of bread, or exactly what the dough should look like when it's mixing. There are so many variations to bread making, including the types of flour used, whether you like a crusty crust or soft sandwich loaf. Anyway, here it is.

Just one other point you do not need oil or preservatives in bread, the bread recipe below keeps well in the bread bin for a couple of days fresh and is good toasted after that
