That is one impressive loaf! I instantly have an urge to go eat some bread… I’m also impressed by the clean cut. You must have sharp knives. Smile

Believe it or not but I've had this serrated bread knife for decades and it still cuts as clean as the day it was made. Ed Wüsthoff.

That’s amazing, but then again, when it’s quality, it’s quality. (I’ve had a similar experience with my ~40-year-old Fiskars scissors.)

That looks like a lovely bread! I made first bread from the NY Times No Knead recipe for Christmas. Came out pretty good. I'm thinking of trying a sourdough bread next time. Might be overly ambitious. Fun researching it though.

No knead bread is so easy and delicious.

Since the coming of cold weather we haven't bought any factory made bread at all due to the sodium content in it. I've made all of what we consume. Just yesterday I made 2 loaves of bread made with 50% freshly ground white whole wheat (I ground it and it doesn't get any more freshly ground than that). Other than no knead bread I never make just one loaf but always 2 or more loaves. One loaf is kept out for immediate use and the extras are sliced in half and frozen.

I make all the bread I consume, and have done so for about a year. For the most part, I make sourdough, so it's just the starter + flour, salt and water. Simple!

I make two loaves a week, and that's enough for me and my daughter. My wife likes store-bought multigrain (which I can't stand), so she's on her own. Big Grin

I also use the sourdough starter to make sourdough biscuits.

While I make sourdough bread by hand, I also use a bread machine occasionally - mostly for a garlic herb bread. It's a good option when time is at a premium. Sourdough takes time.
