Bread everywhere!




I've turned my kitchen into a bakery!! Seriously, I've always wanted to learn how to make bread and this book Matt got me by Jim Lahey has changed my life!! I blogged about it a few posts ago. In the past week I've made 4 regular round loaves of bread, a kalamata olive loaf, baguettes and a pizza bread! Really he teaches you how to let the bread make it self, you just mix for about 20 second and give it a lot of time to rise and do it's thing. I'm seriously so amazed.

The recipe I posted previously is one I saw online, but it's a little different than his in the book, so I will repost the correct recipe soon. If anyone is interested in learning his technique please let me know. I'm happy to share this new found joy!!
