Bread with old dough in a casserole
This week we shared on the blog some kneading basics and techniques, tips to keep in mind when making your own homemade bread as part of our bread blog series. They came courtesy of Virginia, author of the blog Sweet and Sour, and after enlightening us with that little guide to bread making, she encourages us to try it with this recipe for homemade bread in a casserole. Get your hands in the dough: making your own homemade bread is priceless!
Bread: Basic Kneading Concepts and Techniques
Many of us want to make our own bread at home, but we have a lot of doubts about kneading, for example (how to do it, how will I know it's ready...), we don't have the necessary kitchen utensils, or we're not very clear about some terms when we try to follow a recipe to make our homemade bread.
Poor Man's Brioche
Many of us bake our own bread at home, or are used to making various pastry recipes. But few of us have tried preparing our own brioches. Miriam, food blogger at El Invitado de Invierno and an expert in all things bread-related, suggests we make it today. On this occasion she has used the Emile Henry ceramic mold ideal for brioche. Below she explains how to make it.
Plum and Almond Bread. Homemade Herb and Walnut Cheese
Those of you who don't know her yet will gradually discover that Virginia is a food blogger who loves to prepare different recipes. Different in the best sense, of course. And the difference often comes from ingredients that are uncommon in our kitchens, or a different touch that gives the dishes she prepares a very personal flavor.
Baking bread at home, easier than it seems
There's nothing like starting the day by waking up and smelling freshly brewed coffee. How do I make this moment a true dream? By making myself a good breakfast with freshly baked bread at home. Homemade bread, crispy and ready in no time!
Corn bread (maize bread) with zucchini
Cornbread is a traditional variety of bread from the United States that is very easy to prepare. Since lately many people ask me for bread recipes of all kinds, whether to make with the bread maker, with the Emile Henry bread oven or different recipes that are easy, I thought you might be interested in this recipe.
Semi-wholemeal bread with Emile Henry oven
Yesterday our friend Laia made a delicious semi-wholemeal bread with the new Emile Henry bread oven. Laia prepared the dough in the bread maker so we only had to place the dough in the oven, but I’m leaving the recipe for kneading the bread by hand for those of you who don’t have a bread maker at home. The bread baked in this Emile Henry piece is amazing — very soft inside and with a very crunchy crust. If you enjoy making bread at home, don’t miss trying it.
