Bread

I made bread for the first time this weekend.  Homemade bread.  I have always thought that it was difficult. Not sure why I have always thought that, probably because of the number of people we know, who have a breadmaker and have always said it was difficult without a bread maker.

Well I proved this weekend it is not difficult.  Well myself and the kids proved it  :)
We started in the morning and had bread ready for lunch.  Took less than an hour of actual doing something, most of the time was spent leaving the bread to its own devices in a covered bowl. The whole process took about 2 hours, plus the little extra added with kids playing and doing things themselves  ;)

Ingredients were: warm water, honey, yeast, flour, salt, egg white

The finished article was a little heavier than normal bread but tasted the same. No, in fact it actually did taste nicer.  I know it is cliché but it did taste nicer. I used one of the rolls we made for my sandwich at work today.

For demonstration purposes see the picture below of the first batch that came out of the oven

oh and you may be wondering about the mix.  Well - the easiest way is too watch this young lady explain it all
