@owlcitygirl91 Favorite ways to eat homemade bread...
#pbandj #toastedwithhoneycomb
Yes, that's what you think it is. Homemade, still warm, pure delight. Few smells can beat that of freshly baked bread. And this bread is the champion of all breads. ;)
I can still remember the excitement as a little girl when my mother first got her wheat grinder. I got to help scoop the wheat kernels into the deafening machine and watch them slowly disappear. Then I would quickly open up the machine to see the magic transformation - and excitedly sink my hands into the fresh, warm flour. Nothing makes better bread than freshly ground wheat. Needless to say, I was very glad when my mother got a new wheat grinder and passed her old one on to me when I moved out.
There are many reasons to love freshly ground wheat. First of all, it tastes better than premade - as flour ages, it develops a bitter taste due to oxidation (plus it doesn't have the preservatives). Freshly ground wheat has a very sweet nutty flavor. It also makes a better texture - freshly ground wheat makes a loaf that is so light and fluffy that it would honestly compare to white bread - if it didn't taste a million times better. Last but not least, freshly ground wheat is more nutritious because the nutrients have not been exposed to the air as long and have not had a chance to oxidize.
For this recipe, I decided to try my hand at video-making. I will apologize in advance for the poor quality because I was using an old camera. I hope you enjoy it anyway!
- Add 1/4 cup cheddar cheese
- Add 1/4 cup grated Parmesan and 1 TB Italian seasoning
- Add 1/3 cup chocolate chips (use frozen chips to prevent them from melting in the warm dough)
- Add 1/4 cup craisins and 1/4 cup chopped pecans
- Add some chocolate chips to the above version
- Use your imagination! :)
PS- how do you like videos? Should I do more in the future?
