Fear Not!!



*Former Nemesis*


Although I have done lots of cooking and baking over the years, I have always had a fear of yeast. My good friend Clay Bertrand scoffs at this notion and has encouraged me to suck it up and try, so here's to you Clay!
After a little searching, I found a recipe that seemed to be fool-proof and since I was planning on making BLT's, this was as good a time as any to give it a whirl. The dough came together nicely and as promised it was a rather quick process, aside from the rising time. We were so happy with the taste that I am sure we will be making this again and again. It was slightly sweet and I believe it will make a fine piece of toast come morning. So, the morale of this story is: stop being a sucker and make some bread!

  2. This answerman fellow seems to critique all cooking issues, I wonder how his crafting skills are (knitting, sewing).

    I can almost smell the bread and I don't think I have ever used homemade bread for blt's...good idea! The loaves are nice & high!!!

  3. The bread looks great!! I think you should try the cinnamon swirl bread next :) And also, is there a way to block Answerman's comments? He seems a little, hmmm, pompous.
