Some bread for the week
Work has been brutally busy, so bread had to go on the back burner. I did manage to get out some sandwich bread and a couple no-knead SD. The sandwich bread is a little sweet since that's the way I like it and the SD has about 25% WW by weight. I did get a little flour rolled into the SD when I shaped it, but luckily it wasn't too much. The house smelled great today. Dave

Looks like you got some nice loaves there too, Dave. Thanks for your kind remarks on my blog. I'm sure baking produces a kind of aroma therapy after a long week at work. Plus it's always gratifying/satisfying to be able to produce something so humble as one's daily bread! Each loaf provides its own relaxing adventure.

The no knead SD looks wonderful! What recipe did you use? I"d love to give that a go. You said it was no-knead. I have that bread in 5 minutes a day book. is it in there?
I use the NYT recipe and add a cup of starter between 2 loaves. Dave
I guess I'm not sure what the Times Recipe is? The other thing that I'm unclear about is when you refer to using a starter, is that something listed on the recipe or is that a starter that you keep on hand?
So many terms, so many recipes, so much confusion on my part..............
