Apparently due to circumstances beyond his control Mr Butt has been unable to get a "rise" this afternoon.

Bloody power cut just as I put the dough in, thought the residual heat would bake it in the Dutch oven but was just a moist mass sadx

Yours survived and baking it off now, will let you know how good it is later

Got to say i would die for a Cotswold Crunch now with ham and butter.
Life is dough but how about putting in a claim to the electric company for my emotional distress?

Entered the Greatham feast bake off for the first time with an overnight proof white and gadzooks, it only got 1st prize against some strong cake opposition.
Taste sensation.

Seen as you're a fitness guru, would you prefer the healthy whole wheat?

My kids love the chewy texture, they call it crumpet bread, love how the lurpak gets in the spaces, great with olives, salami and from age.

Made a cracking 7 hour white yesterday, wish I could show you but file too big to upload, the flavour is immense and pair it with dry fried farmers market pork sausage at a low heat, juicy and moist :dance:

Went to Lidl and bought a Low GI multi-seed cob £1.29.Tastes very good one of the best shop bought loafs i have had.

Now on the fifth slice after a light lunch of fish & chips at Verrills. :banana-linedance:

I asked my local baker the secret to baking great bread. He said it was on a Know to Knead basis!

Bread is like the sun, it rises in the yeast and sets in the waist!

Started a sourdough starter last week, have to feed it daily and it don`t half pen and ink, bubbly little fecker but should make a decent Poolish :clap:

2 weeks ago, sent it back on Monday as her nose kept running, they called yesterday and said it needed emptying

Deep joy bread lovers, the sourdough was knockout and the crusty rustic had more holes than a trust golf tournament :clap:

Monkeybutt · **Joined:** Sun Jan 21, 2018 6:22 pm **Posts:** 2428

2 beauties yesterday, the overnight proof gives a lot more flavour and the sourdough has no yeast, just the starter to make it rise.

Monkeybutt · **Joined:** Sun Jan 21, 2018 6:22 pm **Posts:** 2428

Cracking sourdough today :dance:

Just had some wholegrain rye bread from Lidl.
Toasted it with butter and honey.
Very nice :banana-linedance:

Hartleblue · **Posted:** Fri Aug 23, 2019 5:30 pm

I'd have toasted it then put the butter and honey on.

Purchased an overnight bloomer from More of Stavely yesterday, just had a bacon sandwich in it, oh my days, a delight and a great way to start the day.

I’d imagine I have forgotten about more Pools games than you’ve been to, most people tend to support a football team for life you see.

Aren’t you from Southport? That is who you should support if you are going to start to try and get a rise out of people stick to bread.

I was trying to get a rise out of him, not you, stop being sensitive silly.

I’m not sensitive in the slightest but why are you having a personal conversation about real life on this forum and mixing it with someone who you have never spoken to? Mention me and I will probably respond in kind if you do that. Very Valid what I’m saying as well the Manchester United links are as bad the recent Tory allegations.

Real Bread.
