I have been trying to teach myself how to bake bread for a few years now. I’m sorry to say that even after TWO YEARS, I am not very good at it.
The only fool-proof bread recipe I have found is this one for Farmhouse White Bread from Farmgirl Fare.
See? Beautiful, right? But … it’s white bread. And we just don’t do white bread.
So, I am still trying and trying to learn how to make good wheat bread. The best recipe I have found so far is this one for Honey Oatmeal Bread from Tasty Kitchen. It really is delicious, but …
… why, oh why won’t it rise??? Like I said, still delicious though.
I guess practice makes perfect. Try, try, again!
