Any Home Bakers Here?

The second try at the Country Bread turned out better than the first batch. I turned the temp down, used a thermometer but my slashing botanical motifs clearly need work!

I think it looks great! And besides, you are going to eat it so perfection isn't all that necessary.

Pie rings are on the left.

What is the purpose of pie rings? Obviously not just a decorative addition.

Nice! I would love a recipe book holder like that.

Nowadays we need a laptop holder so we can follow all the recipes posted here and elsewhere!

Pie rings are to eliminate any guesswork as to whether or not the pie dough is rolled out to the right size for the desired pie.

Because it wasn't in Tennessee.

Penny Jo, I miss my Silkies. No one has them around here. They were
our first Chickens and they brought me Joy. ha ha. You can see how large the Antique Tins are....they do make a large loaf. In fact this White
Bread Recipe and I usually use "other flour plus"...guess the White only
Bread Flour...gave them a high rise....they "stuck" to the top towel I had
covering them (reason for the rough tops)...will know better next time.
Fond regards, Aria
