CMMC May: Pick a Topic From My Photo
Well wasn’t this fortuitous. Cee’s photo of magnetic words, I have the same ones on my fridge, included was the word loaf.
Two nights ago, or last night for most of you, I baked bread. It turned out so well I had to take some photos to share with friends.
The reason it turned out well was I was having failures. I tried a few remedies but nothing seemed to work. I worked out I was not using enough flour and yeast plus water was a bit out. Out with the scales and measured instead of my that’ll do measuring. Adding an extra half a teaspoon of yeast as well. I can’t remember when was the last time I looked at baking instructions.
The bread board was made by my eldest daughter, the bread knife I remember since forever. It might have even been my parents wedding present, loaf of bread by me.

My favourite is a warm slice of bread with butter and honey.

It is only fitting – Make It With You by Bread 🤗
Your bread looks delicious – I can smell it from here. It’s even more special slicing it on that bread board with a knife that has memories. I remember that song … I did like Bread back in the day.

Well done with the bread. It’s ages since I baked bread here. A combination of time, it being hot, and an excellent bakery not far away!

I can smell that bread. I looks so yummy! I love fresh baked, warm bread. It’s been awhile since I’ve made any. I think it might be time, before the weather gets way too hot.

Well done. The bread looks so good. The special board and knife add to the picture. I like Bread, they gave us some good tunes.

Yum. I too have started making bread again. But my bread has got better as I have learnt to add more water than I used to, and have a quite loose, sticky dough before the first proving. The more I make, the less I measure. We’ll have to have a bread-and-honey coffee morning, Brian!

I’m hopeless at following recipes so no wonder I’m not a great cook. I do have some cookery books in a cupboard but they tend to stay there. I like watching Jamie but instantly forget the ‘how to’. Nice bread, though, and I love the song.

Thanks Jo. Jamies 30 minute meals is a good book. I use recipes a lot from my copy.
Glad you liked the bread and Bread 😀
