Two days ago I had a very low grade fever for the day. Yesterday I felt better, so I baked some bread!
I did not take pictures initially, because the dough was very stiff and crumbly and I thought oh great, another paper weight. (Yes, I know, usually even bad bread is good.)
However, after reading several googled pages, I put the bread in the microwave with a pitcher of hot water.
It rose!
This is how it looked after letting it rise in the pan, using the same method.
Here it is out of the oven.
A little lopsided, but one of the better looking loaves I've made so far. :-)
And here it is after I sliced and toasted a piece today.
Yummy!
I think we had enough rain yesterday for May flowers. It rained all day!
Blessings to you all. ♥
Beautiful bread. You did good!
ReplyDeleteIt is thundering and raining now.
I like loaves that are not perfectly shaped! I hope you are doing better. We have lots of allergies here (and colds) too,
ReplyDeleteNothing better than home made bread, feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteI would be tickled to death to make a load of bread that pretty! Wonder if I am too old to learn to make bread!
ReplyDeleteI'll bet it tastes yummy!

Gee, what a surprise! I posted my bread and then went to read your comment/blog and found that you are making bread too! Sure hope you are feeling much better now. Bet that lovely loaf helped a lot. Thanks for the good wishes for us to have some more rain/snow. It has snowed here in June before so I can only wish for some Spring storms to roll in from somewhere. Love your new header photo! ox
