Rustic White Bread (An Inspirational Tale)

Today, we made our first loaf of no-knead bread. It was a simple recipe with only 5 main ingredients (bread flour, water, salt, yeast, and a whole lot of time). The whole process took a full 24 hours, but the result was so mind-blowing that we decided to make a blog.

Here is the inspirational loaf:


And here we are, cyberspace!

You must be thinking, "Wow, that bread must really have been life-changing" ...and you're right. We made new life plans as we took the bread out of the oven. If financial data sales and teaching don't work out, we know we'll have a fall-back as bread bakers.

This blog will track the rises and falls (bread jokes! already!) of baking in our tiny New York City kitchen.

  2. The bread looks wonderful, though I do wish a bit more personal antics of the trials and tribulations were included. Will certainly be following your progress as your brave the rough and tumble world of internet baking.
