I think it is always good to start with the classics, get the method right and then bring on the changes. This bread is so easy and the best way to teach yourself to become a pro at baking bread.
Yes, everyone is entitled to have a cheat day in the kitchen. If the need and desire for fresh bread are bigger than your desire to make dirty dishes,pots and pans, this recipe is for you. Simply by a kilo of bread dough from your baker and make these easy Focaccia with green and black olives.
The classic South African Braai Staple. This bread became popular a decade or two ago and has since had a few transformations. It basically is a bread made with selfrasing flour and the beer is the rising agent. The original recipe was a 340 ml can of beer, 500 ml self raising and some cheese. My take on this beer is sophisticated and very elegant and definitely worthy to be in the Top 5 bread recipes list.
Every bread arsenal should have a brown bread or seed loaf in it. I love to toast a slice of seed loaf. I particularly love the nuttiness and the chewy crusts. This seed loaf is made with yeast, but it is a simple stir-it-altogether-kind-of-bread.
Yes, by now you have mastered the art of bread making. You have worked out that baking bread is like therapy. It is time for you to start experimenting.
