So when's the last time you baked bread? Do you have a dutch oven?

Great Question!!
I have never baked bread before. I should try and see how I go.
Do you bake it often?

Every couple of weeks or so... I love baking it in my dutch oven, it's sooooo easy. I use a recipe I got from a BYC friend. Make up 3 loaves worth (it's a really shaggy dough) and put it in the fridge for up to two weeks. When you're ready to make a loaf, pull it out separate enough dough for one loaf and 80 minutes later you have bread.

if you don't have one of these you'll want one. Wander around there site, they have awesome stuff. I'll get you a link to the recipe as well. I modify it as I grind my own whole wheat flour and rye flour.

Here's the recipe...

What I do is line a bowl with parchment paper and plop the dough in there for it's 40 minute rise. Just cover with a warm wet towel. While it's rising I heat the dutch oven up in my oven to 450*F (about 235C), then take the lid off the dutch oven, pickup the dough with the parchment and put parchment and all in the oven, then the lid back on. Bake for 30 minutes, then remove the lid and parchment and bake an additional 15 minutes. Cool on a wire wrack.
