Thread: anyone bake their own bread?

  1. #1

    Default anyone bake their own bread?

    I've always been into baking fresh homemade bread, but lately I've been experimenting with Essene breads. Basically just sprouting different grains (this week I'm using oats) then mashing it up to create a paste, mix in some dried fruit and nuts, then baking at an extremely low temperature. Super cheap and easy, plus it's extremely beneficial for you.

    It's not hard it's just laborious.

    That's the cool thing about the Essene (Manna) bread, it's a simple process. The only time consuming part about it is giving the grain time to sprout. Once they do though, you just toss your ingredients in the blender/food processor, form a loaf and bake.

    my wife makes some really good corn bread using sour cream, creamed corn and whole kernel corn. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

    I love kids. They're short, highly emotional people who don't know anything. They rely on their creativity and imagination to get by in the world. A world, I might add, filled with giants. Amazing feat.

    This is the recipe that I came across and have been experimenting with.

    lol

    this is probrally one of the most random threads ever on be-mag, that is an accomplishment in itself

    well i have no helpful input on this matter but i remembered i had a girlfriend who promised me fresh bread. i came hungry in the morning
    and after her labor heavy afternoon to get fresh bread for dinner i vowed never to attempt making bread ever.

    2.99 for the immediate huge fresh italian loaf from the bakery sure beats the 4-6 hours it takes for yeast and baking to be done.

    my shift key is broken.

    wuckin it.

    wow, definitely about to take my bread game to the next level and sprout that shit


    i bake a fat loaf of 'no-knead' bread almost every other day. it's practically free (just flour, salt, yeast, water) and makes a perfect artisan loaf every time. really impresses girls too. i also use the same dough batch to make delicious pizzas on the cheap.




    this is the basic recipe; i use less yeast and let it sit over night

    it's be-mag.. everything is random!


    Randy, that looks incredible. Definitely want to give that a try, look's way simple. I've been making pizza as well, but with Jeph's recipe from his print interview.

    Ive been half assing bread making for a while myself. I need to stop using my bread machine though. Bread machine breads suck so bad.
    The bread comes out really small celled and tough. ugh

    oh and rep for OP

    the key to simplicity for both pizza and bread is to mold the loaf/pie on parchment paper. that way you can put the parchment paper directly onto the stone and just slide it off when the dough is no longer wet and sticky. it's a huge hassle to try and slide the dough/pie off of your surface and onto the stone if you're just using flour or cornmeal or what have you
