My super wet dough looked SO nice and bubbly going into the oven! But somewheres along the line, all the bubbles got up and left...
Can't find my camera, but the house is in an uproar as we re-arrange for the holidays and try to pare down. Too many decades of accumulation...
I realized that baking bread only once or twice a month was doing a disservice to my beautiful, bright teal Kitchenaid. Sure, it makes a mean cake and yeah, it is awesome for pulled pork or shredded rotisserie chicken, but the main reason the hubby bought it for me was because I would pine for a mixer to make bread. So, I am reading recipes, watching YouTube videos, and trying to conquer my fear of kneading. I know that "the bestest" bread is made by hand, but the few times I attempted it, all I got for my efforts were aching wrists, and bread so tough and chewy it was basically inedible.
