Progress![]() Bread. The simple food that we enjoy hot and fresh with butter that becomes stale in less than a week. So, what is it? The Merriam Webster's dictionary states "a usually baked and leavened food made of a mixture whose basic constituent is flour or meal" and "a baked food made from a mixture of flour and water." We all know its baked. You get it from the bakery. We all know it at least contains flour and water. Not all breads contain yeast. An example is unleavened bread. Sometimes unleavened bread is called flat bread as it is flat because there is no yeast to make it rise. What purpose does yeast have in breads you ask? For those that do not already or forgot, yeast makes the bread rise. Yeast is actual fungus that consumes the sugars in the dough which comes from added sugar, alcohol, or even just from your flour that you use. As the yeast consumes the sugars in the dough, it makes carbon dioxide gas which makes the dough rise and form bubbles in the bread while baking. It also is what you smell when you let the dough rise and uncover. That smell is the gas. Personally, I like that smell. The smell of freshly baked bread is also wonderful. I hope this is a good introduction to my blog on bread for all of you guys. Please, feel free to comment below to share your experiences with bread with others and perhaps even with me. You can also leave recipes for me to perhaps bake. The first few breads will be simple and will become more sophisticated as time progresses. ReflectionAfter probably a mere two hours, I have completed my first blog. It was fairly simple as it is just a mere introduction to my project as a whole. I would say that bread baking is very entertaining in its own way, and many people do not understand what it is like. I myself find that time move to is evasive which allows me to assume the case is also the same for others. After this, I will make blogs on bagpipes. Although not much was done, I feel a strong sense of satisfaction as I share my knowledge with others. The majority of the information was from my own prior knowledge and experiences. Personally, my favorite butter is salted President butter. It is imported from butter. Although a really good butter for fresh bread, I cannot find this in many grocery stores aside from the Fresh Choice market which is out of my way but totally worth it. I suggest for all to find a good butter that you like if you make fresh bread and want to enjoy the fruits of your labor.
