Tried and Tested
Simon:
I've no doubt you'll all go :aarrgh: but I've bought a couple of packs of Wright's bread mix, just to start with, so I can get to know how the machine works. I have also got some Waitrose Strong Flour (white and wholemeal) on order, and some Allinson's yeast. Once I have the basics mastered, I shall try out some of the recipes in this thread, and some of the different flours. I was a little surprised to discover that it doesn't appear to be any cheaper to make your own bread than it is to buy it, but that doesn't matter, as I wasn't looking to save on costs.
GillE:
You'll notice the difference in flavour and texture straight away. If you find your bread has a tendency to go stale quickly, here's a tip - add a small knob of butter, lard or a drop of veggie oil when you make it.
Simon:
It says in the instructions to do that anyway, Gill. For once, I intend to follow the book to the letter. ;D
GillE:
You've read the instructions before using the machine?
:o
Simon, you are unique amongst men (but not amongst women).
