One Dough at a Time

Since the acquisition of my much loved Kitchenaid mixer, I've decided that I need to learn how to properly bake bread. Unfortunately, bread is not my speciality. This should not come as a surprise to anyone who has watched me cook. I don't do well with measuring and I'm not known for my patience. To help me on my bread baking journey I bought The Laurel's Kitchen Bread Book: A Guide to Whole-Grain Breadmaking . I hoped that the book would instantly make me a master baker, but unfortunately that did not happen. In fact, my first attempt at bread ended with a sticky ball of goop that ended up in the garbage. Attempt number two resulted in a tasty, but hideous looking loaf of rye bread. It will probably take me all winter to learn how to make a decent loaf, but I'm determined to make it happen. In the mean time, stop by on Sunday for a fresh piece of buttered deliciousness. I may post recipes at some point, but at this point it would be like the unleavened leading the unleavened
