Today
is National Homemade Bread Day! Is there anything better?
I am a proud 4th
generation bread maker. I don’t use a bread machine, nor do I think that is
considered making it homemade. Not only do you get the benefits of not
consuming all those preservatives, but also making your own bread is a great
way to relieve stress. The kneading especially helps you punch out that
negative energy. Making your own bread, I believe, is also the perfect study
activity. Why, you ask? Well, you mix your ingredients and then let it raise
for 45 minutes to an hour. Then you knead it again, and let it raise another 45
minutes to an hour before putting it in the oven to bake. The bread bakes for
30 -45 minutes and then BAM! You’ve got a tasty loaf or two of bread AND you
wrote that essay that’s been stressing you out! Plus you have the incredible
scent of the bread baking! The whole process is pretty wonderful!
Making bread
is pretty easy, however as noted already, it can be time consuming. We all seem
to think we have no time to do these things but I beg to differ - MAKE the
time! There are hundreds of recipes online. Pick one and make it happen. Before
you do, vote on the Daily
Poll please!
