Judy: thanks for visiting! And the bread was very good indeed: the recipe is adapted from Julia Child's Baking With Julia, the Mixed Starter Bread. It's desribed there as "unless you are a professional or very accomplished baker already, this is likely the best bread you'll ever have made" or words something like that. It is indeed a pretty good recipe:-)
RT: The recipe here is is not hard, but it does take time: and it requires a piece of dough from a day or two before (in some ways it mimics a sourdough recipe, though it does use some yeast too): perhaps I'll post the recipe in a little while.
Hi! Sorry that I've got comment moderation activated --- I had a few unpleasant comments which forwarded people to bad places automatically --- so now I like to check that comments are real before allowing them.
Beautious!
ReplyDeleteThank you!

Just give me a dish of butter and I'll be in Heaven!! Bread is my very favorite thing to eat - good bread, that is - and yours does look good!

They look like fantastic loaves - makes me feel like baking some bread myself, although it's been a few months since the last time.

Those are gorgeous! And to think some people are on those low-carb diets...
ReplyDeleteThanks, Rhea! I'm just doing my bit to make it harder for people to stick to those low-carb diets:-) Or any diets, for that matter....
