My grandmother taught me to make bread when I was about 12 years old and have been making breads of all kinds since. I’m not much on plain white bread and have a molasses wheat that is crazy good and loaded with wheat germ.
WE hve a bred maker for when I am pinched for time but I much prefer making bread the way I was taught. My grandmother was 77 when she showed me the ropes. She made two loaves every other day. She made her last loaf when she was 106 years old and died at 112. I sure miss her yet.
Right now I have a double batch of my favorite cookies baking…will be at it for about 3 hours. pics later.
