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.

    Recipe Chilli-Cheese Loaf-Cake

    I call this a loaf-cake because its a bit like a cross between bread and a heavy cake. It goes well with salad for a nice lunch but its tasty enough to eat on its own (especially toasted). I know this is a bit of a vague recipe - the exact quantities of the vegetables aren't specified but you...

    Soda Bread

    First let me say I am NOT a cook. I just mess around.:thumbsdown: I live on my own, with just an up & over fridge/freezer, so very limited storage. I don't use a lot of bread, a large loaf will last me 2-3 weeks, so when I buy one, it takes up valuable freezer space. Over the years, I have...

    Recipe Simple Bread Apple Cake

    This simple cake is easy to prepare and a really delicious idea to use that old, dry bread that one should never ever throw away. This cake has poor origin and I just love it. The use of stale bread is one of the staples of Italian cuisine and this cake is a worthy representative of it since it...

    Baking bread with no flour or yeast

    I have been looking for a low-carb bread for a while and, as those of you who watch carbs know, low-carb bread leaves much much to be desired.

    Anyone still use a bread making machine?
