Bread!

Bri and I threw a big Swedish Smorgasbord this past December for Christmas, and it was this event that began my current fascination with bread!  Bread--what does it mean???!?!  Where did it come from???  It's so simple, yet so complex!  The book I have been waiting for, Tartine, just arrived today & I can't wait to dig into it.  I'm going to learn about starters, yeasts, the rising process, & more!

So I thought I'd share all of the breads I have made (or at least have pics of) from this past month.  I'm not claiming that these breads are anything spectacular, but it's been fun anyway.  Little creations to share with friends..

  2. Jordy! I'm not sure which was a favorite, but I found all the Swedish breads especially tasty. From this cookbook: http://www.amazon.com/Swedish-Table-Helene-Henderson/dp/0816645132
