Hi all, 

My 3th bread. 

Followed most of the tips suggested by you all and they were useful. 

Bread was soft and the crust was crunchy.  Went perfectly with pulled pork and Cole slaw. 

Will bake this one more often now. 

I am now getting the hang of it; the process and its important elements. 

Next recipe with Polish.  Wish me luck. 

Thank you. 

Hi all,

This is the top view of my very 1st bread (straight dough ) 

The top of the crust was burnt, but the rest of crust was nice and drank brown.  I think the top of my oven is too hot. 

Don't have the huge oven to switch the position of the Dutch oven. It sits only in one particular position. 

Also,  my hands got slightly burnt even through the mits,  but I guess you have to quick when you handle these hot ovens. 

Many lessons learned after this baking session.  I Can't wait to try other more complex recipes. 

Wish me luck. :) 

Dear all, 

This is my straight dough bread from FWSY

My first bread I ever baked or even tasted. It's a farewell to packed slices breads I ate whole my life. I am don't have a bread  critique around here as we don't get this kind of bread in the city I live in. 

I like the taste of it when I toast it. 

Not sure how do I store it. In a container or out in the open?
