One of the things that I’ve been trying to become more competent at over the last few years is baking bread. On top of just my continually growing fascination with the science of food, the ethics of food, and my desire to eat well and eat healthy, fresh baked bread just tastes super good!
For about the past two months, I haven’t even bought bread from the store and I’ve just been baking about a loaf a week to keep me going. But yesterday I ran out. And then I ate a piece of store-bought that I’ve had in the freezer for a while now. It was thin and crumbly and light. It just didn’t compare.
I baked a fresh loaf this evening. It was tasty. There truly is nothing like fresh-baked bread, hot out of the oven.
I would like to vow to never buy bread from the store again…but let’s be honest, it’s just more convenient sometimes…but I’ll do my best.
YUM!!!!
I keep trying to decide if I can give up eating bread. I’m not sure if it is worth it.
