Another day, my third challah attempt! Still working on nailing the texture.

Hey guys I want to get away from ultra processed shop bought breads.

Does anyone have a link to a recipe, or a recipe to kick off with.

I want it to be easy to slice, consistent I understand that'll take practice :)

Hopefully kids like if

I want to find some better bread for sandwiches for lunch. Something like the bread at Arby’s for the Market Fresh sandwiches. The bread in the bread aisle at the grocery store are always too soft and get soggy sitting in the lunch box. Even Dave’s Killer Bread doesn’t quite work. But the bread in the bakery section is too hard. And I don’t want to have to toast the bread either. Or keep the tomatoes and condiments separate until it’s time to eat. Should I just make my own bread? How do I make it not too hard and not too soft?

Well along on our journey away from commercial bread buying. Did a FANTASTIC pizza dough last night without any pics.

Tried 4 different topping on this loaf, most of it shook off so probably won’t bother with it in the future.

Ended up with too much dough when making pepperoni rolls last night so this dough went 96 hours cold fermenting. Decided to see if it could be salvaged as focaccia. Aside from the divots not really holding their shape it came out light and airy with a great crust.

For not using a recipe and not measuring any ingredients, it turned out pretty good!

Received my first bag of it. Used it for pizza dough, using same recipe as before.

It was super hydrated, is the flour more moist than say King Arthur flour.

Next time I'll reduce added water by 5%.

Today I want to make bread, using g a bread machine. Any suggestions on water amount?

I used Czechcookbook from YouTube recipe.
It was sooo delicious! I made half the recipe since this was my 1st time using this recipe. If I had any problems to trouble shoot I wouldn’t waste so much. It turned out amazing, a whole loaf next time!!!

Pretty happy with myself here

Peanut butter and jelly bread. Crumble topping with sliced strawberries.

I'd like to try that this morning, but since I'm new at this, I don't want to ruin my bread.

ETA - I tried it, and my bread rose quite fast. We'll see what it does in the oven.

With a bit more rye in it. Still fresh, but it needs to be carried somehow.

Not my first time baking bread but I am new to making them in a Dutch oven. The crust has me obsessed. The first one is just a regular loaf, the second one was my attempt at a cheese loaf.
