Nicely done guys (btw thanks for the recipes Frogster), I love homemade bread, it has that great smell that makes me salivate almost instantly. Too bad I'm a really bad italian when it comes to cooking and laziness always prevails in the end. Razz

bored, so simple steps : (i make various bread, but this is simple enough to do it regularly.)
i use 500gr fresh beer yeast, precut in 10 pieces, i keep it refrigerator (-C).
i use 1/10 (50gr) / batch. http://imgur.com/ePkHc5g
before i go to work, i get the yeast out of fridge.
when i get back from work, i add some brown sugar over (2 teaspoon).
after 10 minute i add 750 ml not cold water (room temp ~20C)
i use a spoon to make sure yeast and sugar is disolved.
in a large bowl i put 900 gr 650 type white flour, 300 gr rye flour, sunflowerseeds, flax seeds, pumpkin seeds, 2 teaspoon salt and ... wheat germs ?
after i combine them, with a spoon i make a hole in the middle where i pour the water with yeast.
with the same spoon i mix taking flour from sides until dough is ... like a hard porridge.
after that i put the remaining flour over dough.
i cover with a wet towel.
i let it rest until cracks are showing (30+min)
after that i add a small cup with milk, using the spoon i mix again until flour and milk is incorporated.
i sparkle flour on table, i pour the dough there (is sticky) i sparkle some more flour on my hand and the surface of dought.
for the next 5-10 minute i knead the dough and i sparkle flour as need it. i stop when the elasticy is good, and is not that sticky anymore. like you press with a finger, and it comes back.
i wash the bowl, clean with a papertowel, pour a bit of oil in it, sides included.
put the dough in, again a wet towel over, wait for dough to double. (1+h)
i cut it in half with a sharp knife, i gently press one half to make it flat, i roll it and put it in a tray.
same deal with the other.
put the tray under the wet towel, wait at least 30 min to be at least 50% bigger. using the sharp knife cut 2 lines (~2-3 cm deep). let it raise a bit more, without wet towel.
i use a gas owen, i turn it on, on the 2 gradation.
after 10 minute i put the tray's in the owen, set the timer to 40 min, at 1.8 gradation.
when you get them out, package them in a clean towel until next morning. i keep one to eat it fresh, 1 cut in half in refrigerator.
dont cut them until they are cold.
we eat usually 2 pieces of bread with our homemade butter in the same day as soon the bread is safe to eat. ( https://imgur.com/a/ihqAX -> homemade butter.)

Unfortunately I've had to temporarily abandon the starter because my gf doesn't like the smell of wild yeast.


yeah, that is a bit of turn off Smile. fresh beer yeast is fine, does not smell, and you can keep it in refrigerator, but dont forget to cut it before you put it in, because you canot do it when is frozen. a pack works for me at least for two moths, and is alive even after 3-4 months.
i dont like dried yeast.

i use water tray (for the first 10 minute) when i'm making (round) bread over my rock cooking plate.
i find that trowing 2-3 ice cubes (not water) in that hot tray get's better results Smile.

yeah from my pov is a big different. you can give different tastes by altering the wood you burn for example. no chance you can make at home on gas/electric the bread which you can make in a clay oven.
marinated lamb chops ... name it. all taste really great.
and not only on clay oven. i really love food done over firewood and i love cooking outside. different taste.

I have that electric bread maker, love making milchbrot. Nice warm buttery taste. Sadly if you don't eat it the same day it gets crumbly, and we don't eat that much bread. But it's cool to use if you make bread with bacon and cheese and whatnots inside Smile It does the kneading for you Smile

I and my girl tried a couple times to bake bread with sourdough but it never grew Sad Though I make a pretty good pizza dough but that's done with yeast so another story.

don't care to much about kneading, i waste top 10 minute with it. not sure why i don't like bread from bread machine, but i canot stand it. choose a simple recipe and try to make it without a machine, with dried yeast and regular oven, see if you find a difference.
