Easy Crusty Bread

GusRobin · January 25, 2013, 08:15:51 PM

Ok, I have got to try this.

Here it is all mixed up, wrapped and spending the night on the counter. After I took the picture I realized I should have added the cheese ( I think). So I added some cheddar and mixed it up. Added a tsp of garlic powder cause I like garlic bread. The picture is before I added the cheese and garlic.

After I made it I realized the recipe called for all-purpose unbleached flour. Unfortunately I used bleached. So we will see what happens.

Ok, I did it. Best dang loaf of bread I ever did make!! I tried to get fancy and criss-cross the top, DON'T do that, all the Japs and cheese have a place to dispurse.

Gonna try round 2 tonight/tomorrow with fresh rosemary & garlic ILO the jalapeno & cheese. If it comes out half as good as round 1, we'll be happy bread-eaters.

Me? I am not overweight, looking at the official weight/height charts, I am just short for my weight.

If I could make food as good as what you pull out of your smoker I'd have a lot more to worry about than the mid drift rum gut I already have. ;D
