Hello from England!

I just finished making my bread rolls ready for the coming week and then I made some Ricotta.  I was curious as to how I could use the resulting whey when making my bread (I hate to waste anything!)  So I came to my PC and googled my question - and up popped this fabulous site!

 

I have had a glance around and have registered.  Wonderful site and some great photos and recipes.  I'm sure I am going to be using this site a lot now!

 

Hope you are all enjoying your weekend!

Greetings Fellow Bakers

Hi,

Another brit signing up. I'm based in Herts. Keen amateur baker. I've just bought Jim Lahey's book, so was cruising the internet looking for a clay bread baker and discovered this site. didn't find the clay pot though - had to email the Romertopf people to find a UK supplier.

I'm a Richard Bertinet disciple so spend many a happy weekend flinging dough around my kitchen.

Recently discovered this blog below which you may or may not know. Good technique videos.

Happy Baking everyone.

What about the Scots?

Scotland is/was famous for its bakeries and tea breads. Have we no Scottish members?

Nice baking site recommendation btw.  Patsy

Welcome and

I use the whey from my yogurt and ricotta making in my bread all the time.  Most of the time I just replace the water.  If the formula calls for buttermilk or milk, then you can use the whey instead as well. 

Have you tried making cultured butter?  It's awesome and incredibly easy!
