Bread is a staple food prepared from a dough of flour (usually wheat) and water, usually by baking.
Bread may be leavened by naturally occurring microbes (e.g. sourdough), chemicals (e.g. baking soda), industrially produced yeast, or high-pressure aeration, which creates the gas bubbles that fluff up bread. In many countries, commercial bread often contains additives to improve flavour, texture, colour, shelf life, nutrition, and ease of production.

    As usual, I have two bananas that are going bad, so I'm going to make this bread later. I was going to make it as is, but when I pulled out my bread pans to look for the appropriate size, it dawned on me that I could make two smaller breads, rather than one large one. I owe a friend a dessert...

    Recipe Rye bread with carrots, caraway and Guinness

    So I was thinking about carrots. What complements carrots? Aniseed flavours work well with the sweet earthy taste of carrots. OK, what about caraway seeds, that should work. What else do caraway seeds go with? Rye bread! I thought that as carrots work in cake , then they must work in bread too...

    Making bread in France

    I've just got back from a week's self-catering holiday in Saumur in the Loire Valley, France. One of the things I made was bread, using flour bought in a French supermarket. Despite the challenge of a small gas oven which had no temperature settings (!), the results were fantastic and much...

    Do you still use your bread maker?

    Maybe this should have been under the kitchen tools section but I was wondering how many people still use their bread maker for bread making and other things? I still use mine but sparingly. I don't even think the stores are still selling bread machine mix. I usually look online for breads that...

    It was tough and almost never rose to the occasion

    I finally "did it". I made my first bread and I opted for something that was supposed to be simple. What was to be probably less than a two hour job, turned into a few hours well and I still don't think I got it right. I was told to let the bread rise for 25 mins and it would double it's size...

    I stumbled upon this recipe the other day, and tried it out. It made the best zucchini bread I have ever tasted! Normally I use applesauce instead of oil, but I used the oil this time.

    Morning bread called pandesal

    Here in the Philippines, our bread in the morning is called pandesal, a Spanish name to mean bread of salt. But don't be mistaken because it is not salty as the name implies. It is oval in form as big as the hand of a child. It is normal for bakeries to sell pandesal in the morning only that's...

    I love the smell of bread baking!

    I think the smell of bread baking makes a home feel more homey. There is just something so comforting, when you walk in a house and smell fresh bread. My sister always seems to have some in the oven. She always sends some home with me, but I loose out on having the aroma fill my house...
