Thank you, my sourdough starter was happy today

Welcome to bread baking from scratch!

It is very satisfying to make bread with your hands.

or a machine...

 

[ronott1]

or a machine...

Yes!

It is much better in many ways than store bread.

I do mine by hand also love working dough on the counter I use the dough cutter to pick it up and flour on the counter ...
Relaxes me Grandma that raises me taught me it can.

Oh yeah. I use organic flour, and it's still cheaper than store bought too.

It's a good thought, Ladies-Eight, but no joy. We are very isolated out here and I don't know any of my neighbors well enough to ask this of them. I thought (briefly!) about making bricks, gathering slime from the river, and building an horno in the back yard, like my ancestors did ... But thought better of it!

Sounds like a winner to me.

 

[Ladies-Eight]

Bakers good evening one and all!

The breads look wonderful.

53 clear 69% humidity feels like 53 rain 0%.

Have a great day!

I have many jars of powdered, freeze-dried eggs. Those will be handy during "no-lay" periods.

Like now? my girls stopped well over a month ago. I have eggs from summer in the freezer

I got Pearl White Leghorns from McMurrays. I currently have 4 and am getting 4 eggs daily without supplying supplemental light or heat.

I had one skip a day this month. She had laid an egg for 22 days straight. The other 3 had laid an egg for at least 32 days straight as of yesterday.
