Beauties and No Beasts

Having been spoiled with freshly baked artisan bread once Russ became our resident bread baker, my foray into the bread baking dominion was met with some trepidation.  But, check out these results.  Perhaps beginners luck?  A great stand mixer (Cuisinart)? Good bread flour (King Arthur)? A good oven?  A great recipe?  Whatever, I shake my head in surprise and giggle at the results with a butter knife and sweet butter in hand.

  2. This is a great recipe...but I'm sure the flour, mixer, oven and luck help:) Love your closing words 'with a butter knife and sweet butter in hand'. Very poetic!

  3. Looks great! It's so exciting when something comes together like that, especially fresh bread.
