What sort of bread do you eat?

[norrahe]

I'd always want to knead it by hand, at any stage. I use a kenwood chef to mix/initially knead the dough, then have five minutes by hand making sure it's all glossy and smooth, also use a bit of olive oil to knead.

Sorry for jumping in CH

Same here, let the mixer get it to a certain stage and then knead by hand

Cliphead, once you have let the breadmaker knead the dough, do you have to leave it to rise (if so for how long) or is it ready to go into a tin straight from the breadmaker?

I let it rise in the breadmaker then transfer to a loaf tin for the second rise.

That's because you read this article BBC News - Breakfast, lunch and dinner: Have we always eaten them? didn't you?

I'd watched a program on how stuff's made and they were talking about how bread making had changed and the BBC article brought it to mind. I make more bread than I could possibly eat so friends get the benefit, the soda bread (which I do by hand), is the current favourite. There'a almost a Plan B here.

Soda and corn breads are a doddle as there is no kneading and proving. Mix together, slap it in a tin and whack it in the oven.

My mother made brown bread and white bread aka brown or white soda bread with little or no measuring of ingredients. At least I can get proper butter milk here in cloggers to make it with, as the stuff in the UK is like yoghurt.

Does anyone know what that cracking crusty bread/pitta is you get in German (ie Turkish) kebabs and indeed as I just found out, those in Belgium.

I like a good kebab, don't even mind the limp testicle meat we get but the ASDA pitta breads we get are well limp and rank.

I make my own buttermilk. Very easy and you get your own butter out of it!

That's nothing to do with your ejaculate is it?

Sigh, another one....

Is that a happy sigh or a sad sigh?
