I have taken up a new hobby. Bread baking. I have always enjoyed this, yet always been unsuccessful. Either its to doughy, or to hard, or tasteless, or not quiet right.In shear frustration after my last attempt last week, I turned to the internet. Here I discovered 'baking 101'. This site goes into such detail about bread baking, from the yeast, to kneading times, etc.
I have just popped another loaf into the oven. Hopefully with a new technique, I will have baked a decent loaf. My aim is to cut out shop bread as it has so many preservatives in it.

Karen-You are not alone. I have turned to a breadmaker. It is so easy and no frustration. All you do is add natural ingredients and turn it on. Few, if any failures.
Nothing like a warm piece of fresh bread!
ps thanks for the book recommendations... I'll look for them...
I love to make tea breads and pizza dough and if bread did not stick to me like glue I would bake lots of it every single day. Send some of those bread smells my way.
