I bought a bread maker and it worked great. Just dump the stuff in and press "Go". Several hours later fresh bread. Not as good as fresh from a baker, but cheap, good, fresher that any bread from other than a baker and you can make any kind you want. And it makes your house smell good too! There have been times I have eaten bread alone for dinner it was so good!
Cinnamon, raisin and walnut is my favorite.
I make my own too. But manually.
My grandfather did too. There's something to be said about doing things like that, you really appreciate your results. But I'm too lazy. How much time does an average loaf of bread cost you?
You actually don't need more than 15-20 minutes of work to prepare it but it takes 2 hours (2 x 1h) to leave it to rise before baking it.
Here's a simple recipe with explanations http://www.instructables.com/id/How-...machine/#step1
Over time you learn to make variations, add extra ingredients (for example I like to add just a pinch of garlic) and so on. I also get much better results with fresh yeast compared to powdered.
Ha Ha! Baja Yu is a loafer.
My favorite kind of bread is the kind that goes into my wallet and I can use to buy stuff with.
It is called "ladi-pav" in Mumbai.Quote:

Unfortunately due to the humidity around here, bread doesn't seem to last long... after about 3 days, it turns into a pharmaceutical experiment... except for Sara Lee Honey Wheat bread... for some reason that stuff just doesn't seem to go bad - at least not easily...
We use our bread maker mostly around the holidays... pumpkin bread, cinnamon raisin, did Hawaiian bread in it once.

And here I was thinking that he was upper crust, while all the time he was just a heel.Quote:

Maybe they put some anti-mold ingredients in that bread. I remember reading in high school that bread mold though it can look really ugly isn't bad for you. You could eat it with out any bad effects though you might gross people out.Quote:

They were always good, but I never saw any as dark on top as those shown above. Maybe a difference in water or even the type of oven I suppose. Bread is actually sensitive stuff.
My wife bakes my favorite which is a cranberry-walnut bread, It's a "no knead" bread so it's pretty easy to make.
oooooh... cranberry...... :drool:

I think that crust is a particular style based on ingredients. It has something to do wiith the flour used, the crust on batch bread would be dark and very chewy! Tastriffic!
This thread is full of puns and I just got to thinking are other languages as pun capable as English. Maybe some of you that know other languages can answer that question.
Are you sure that you love ALL bread?Quote:

Perhaps, but that doesn't follow the rules of the contest.Quote:

"change one letter" =? "remove one letter"
Well, I'm changing it with an empty string :)
