bread no. 6 (another variation on 3+4)

 

I know, I know ... I'm supposed to be "trying something new" this week for the give-away theme,  and even though I am removing myself from the running for the prize, I do plan to play along thematically baking 'something new' tomorrow.

Meanwhile, the kids still need to eat, and this recipe is so wonderfully simple that I quite literally don't look at the recipe anymore.  This time, I changed it up with half rye flour instead of all the wheat and baked in one large pan instead of two.  It was lacking that hearty rye flavor so I'm going to look for a traditional seeded  rye recipe next time.

I find it interesting that, when I began thinking about baking each week I never conciously thought that we would eliminate all of the store-bought breads right away.  My family can consume big quantities, so I thought initially that we would be supplementing our meals this way.  A happy consequence of baking has been an easy shift -- I haven't bought bread in the store in weeks.  None.

Several 'one good loaf' bakers who are sharing recipes and posts on their blogs have been added to the sidebar list to the right.  Please send me a comment if I have, by chance, missed yours.

The 'something new' submissions in the group pool this week are so deliciously inspiring. 

There is still time to enter a photo for the book give-away challenge; which closes Sunday afternoon, at 4pm (EST.)

Hi Molly.
I am jesspunky in the flickr pool.
I am composing an ode to One Good Loaf as we speak.
This has been really fun!
