More Bread

We have baked bread several more times now. It is still AWESOME. Here are some pictures of the process. This time we made enough dough for eight 1 pound loaves.

These pictures show two loaves resting and rising before being baked.

Then right before they go in the oven I make cuts in the top of the bread.

Homemade Bread

We baked bread this weekend. IT WAS AWESOME!!!!

I will post more pictures of the whole process when we make more. If you have never baked bread you should definitely give it a shot. Also pick up this book: Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day: The Discovery That Revolutionizes Home Baking by Jeff Hertzberg and Zoe Francois I don't have the book yet, but I read an excerpt of it in the current issue of Mother Earth News. The artcle was short, but it provided quick and easy to follow instructions. I highly recommend checking it out.
