Preservative(s) For Homemade Bread

OK, so I'm still thinking at making smaller loaves.
How about trying flat bread on the stove (in a skillet) if it is too hot to turn on the oven?
Hmm, that's a good idea. I can keep the dough in the fridge and make several at a time. 👍

Have to get a cast iron skillet and Goodwill should have one of those for cheap.

Thank you badjak

Or estate and yard sales. Up here I've never seen cast iron skillets at yard sales. Does your mom own one? I think she probably isn't cooking much these days or is using lighter pans when she does?
 
I'm restoring a pan and it's not difficult, but time consuming
I just wanted to know if it is possible (inquiring mind)
Buy if you can get one for a decent price.
You do not absolutely need cast iron though, and it doesn't need to be a skillet either

I think cast iron would be the best for holding the heat and it's not toxic. My granite cookware is rated for the heat but with multiple metals in the construction I'd rather not risk damaging something I'd be pressed to replace. When I moved back here from Nevada I tossed all the cast iron, no room.
 
Fair enough
I love my cast iron :)
I like cast iron. It has a niche for certain places when cooking. Current cookware is like this:

Okay, adding the egg yolk seemed to help since the bread dried out/hard before it got moldy. I took badjak suggestion and made a couple of skillet breads instead of a loaf.View attachment 129286View attachment 129288
So are you saying you made a loaf also and it got dried out and hard? Because dry bread is kinda yucky so that doesn't sound like a success at all. The flatbreads look scrumptious, BTW. Guessing those are nice and moist, yes?

It got dried out and hard before it got moldy so the egg yolk as a preservative worked as intended, no mold. I just didn't eat it fast enough. The flatbreads I made this afternoon and not 5 minutes ago they cooled off enough to bag up. Plus to the flatbreads is I'm not using the oven; way less power on the bill and radiated heat for the AC to remove. Thank you badjak

This reminds me I need to make some hummus soon, and of course some flatbreads or pitas...maybe this week some time.
