A fundamentally different bread dough? Please do tell. My mind is open!
Have you tried baking bread? Pizza dough? Some surprises wait :)
Some big bags of flour while experimenting with sourdough recipes for bread, pizza, pancakes etc. I've learned a lot about working with yeast and won't feel dependent to find it in shops anymore.
You need good bread for that. Store-bought bread in the US is quite bad.
Wait til you hear how bread is made!
Would you share this no-knead recipe?
I'm surprised they use yeast and not sourdough as that would add more flavor. Sourdough is surprisingly easy to make and maintain btw. During these wfh days especially: Just mix 50grams of flour with 50 grams of water and leave in an open container for a couple of days, when you see bubbles, put half of is (50gr) together with 25gr of flour and 25gr of water, repeat. In a bread of 500 grams of meal and 250 ml of water, add 100 gr of your bubbling sourdough, kneed, let rise for 3 hours, and
I make no-knead at least twice a week at home. it's all we eat in terms of bread. i don't bake anything else, just bread (and pizza using the same dough). it has not failed me in 5 years.
Maybe you should consider importing a consumer bread making machine from europe :)(in case anybody wonders what that is, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bread_machine)
Industrial bakers can’t make good bread?
