Baking Bread for Dummies




I like to bake bread, but I don't do it that often. When I was a kid, my mom would buy the frozen loaves and rise them and bake them herself. I just can't get that awesome smell out of my head, so I like to bake my own, too. I tried the bread machine, but it just doesn't quite cut it for me. So this weekend I tried out the awesome No Knead recipe I saw on Tastespotting. The bread was great, and tonight it made awesome sandwiches with chicken breast, fennel, muenster and spinach. Of course, also with some yummy mustard. Delish!

Wow - that looks good. It might actually get me to try baking bread. I'm intimidated. Also means I'll have to crank the heat a bit in the house.
