I have tried for years to make a good bread by hand and each time have failed in one way or another. The bread doesn't rise has been my main challenge or it is all mushy inside (undercooked).
But, I was determined to find a recipe that would really help me step-by-step with wonderful ingredients to sink my hands into.
I found it! The blog Farm Fare had the perfect one for me.
It worked the first time, but just to make sure it wasn't
a fluke, I made 3 more loaves and to my delight (and my family's stomachs) we now have homemade bread in the pantry and freezer.
I plan to make the recipe (which makes 3 loaves) each Sunday so we may have our organic bread at a fraction of the price and honestly- I love the fact that I made it with my own hands. :)
