Dear Ken and Elaine,
I make bread by hand probably on an almost daily basis. I rarely buy bread.
I have a bread machine also but prefer to make bread by hand. I do cheat a
little and use my Kitchen Aid for kneading! I have tried almost every
recipe that calls for a bread machine manually and have had wonderful
results. If you really love to make bread by hand, I would suggest getting
a book called "Bread Bakers" and there is also a "Bread Bakers 2." Each is
filled with the most wonderful recipes! One of these days, I will try to
post my favorite!
Glad to know there are other bread by hander's out there!
