Greetings from South Africa
Hi everyone
Just a brief hello - I'm a writer living in Cape Town, South Africa. Have been baking for years, but after a friend told me she's going to start supplying me with 12,5 kg bags of organic flour, I got hold of "Crust and Crumb" and started working on refining my bread baking practice. After a few monumental disasters (I think because what's called "instant yeast" here in S. Africa is a different product to the same named in the USA), I switched to fresh yeast and all has been well.
Looking forward to learning more on this site.
