Bread, so simple and lovely an idea

I was poking around looking for this recipe because I remembered it after downloading the Five Minute Artisan Bread one. Here it is on a video. I make a shepherd's bread in my dutch oven that is different than this, more dense and even because it's kneaded.



Lovely bread, and very old fashioned.

This Indian (Roti or Chapati) that looks amazingly like a tortilla.



I have a recipe that I used for years that makes one dozen large tortillas. I'll post it tomorrow. Lovely bread!

    Hi Rho, yes..... yummmmmm :o)

    Ah the breads of the world are just lovely stuff. Bread, with a little butter, and maybe salt and pepper. Or toast it and add butter and jam..

    or garlic and sundried tomatoes in oil?

    I'm hungry. lol

    yes, as rho said

    mmmmmmm bread..

    I love fresh bread! The way the house smells, tasting the first bite of it while still an ooch warm, and real butter. It can't get any better than that.
    But ya know what? I am cursed. I just can't get the hang of it, and am always disappointed. I have just about given up, but after seeing the videos you were so kind to post, I will try again!!
    Thanks for sharing.

    Oh yes, Meribeth, keep trying! And, there's always frozen bread dough from the supermarket you know. ;o) In a pinch, it can be made into tons of different things, pizza, cinnamon rolls, dinner rolls. And it saves some time. Did I just say that? hahahaha!

Working my way through the thicket of the American political scene. I am trying to not put any of that up on this blog EVER again. Meh!
