The challenge for today was to make Country Bread and when I think of country bread I think of good old fashioned white bread. In doing some research of Colonial Days, trying to see if we can tie today's recipe in with our theme, we discovered that white bread was not really the bread of that era. And after making the recipe the goes with our challenge from Dori, it too is not white bread. And we discovered that the recipes are very simlar. This is a really good recipe, but we felt like this recipe needed a bit more salt and flavor.
Your loaves look lovely. I expected more flavor, but still enjoyed this bread.
ReplyDeleteLove the look of your loaves. I liked this recipe a lot. The crust was so nice and thick and chewy. Very different from any bread I've made before.
ReplyDeleteYour bread looks wonderful. I am new to this ...first time baking a country loaf, so really can't comment on the flavor. To my untutored tongue, it seemed fine.
ReplyDeleteYour loaves are so cute! I made one huge, but the next time I'll surely split up the dough and make 2 or 3 loaves instead.
ReplyDeleteLoved it!
