Hello from central Massachusetts

Profile picture for user Tina Marie

I came across this site as I am looking to expand my bread making skills.  I've only been making bread for a few months now, but am hooked on the taste and better nutrition of homemade bread -- as is my husband, family, and friends.

So I'm hoping to find more recipes and get tips to become a better bread maker.  :)

Thank you.

Does the site have a dictionary for the all different terms and abbreviations I keep seeing?  For a newbe like myself, it looks like Greek  to me.  :)

Thanks for the warm welcomes!

Sandydog, thank you for the link and for directing me to the Handbook.

After skimming through the handbook, I now know why a couple batches of bread have ended up with flat tops.  Now I just need to figure out why some of my bread tends to be soft, while others tend to be as dry as the Sahara.

It's a learning process and I'm glad to see I'm in the right spot for corrective direction.  :)
