Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a Day
I used to always be on the lookout for good, European-style bread. The grocery stores seldom have it, and if they do it is made from white flour and has a hefty price tag on it. I would buy what I termed "good bread" from specialty bakeries for special occasions. Although I baked my own bread often, my recipe was for traditional loaves of sandwich-type bread, not the tantalizing, crusty, chewy loaves of bread I remember from Europe. Then a friend introduced me to the super simple method of making artisan bread without kneading. It seems too good to be true, but after making 20 loaves in one week, I am here to tell you that it is ridiculously easy, fast and foolproof. It has revolutionized bread at my house! No need to buy it at the grocery store when fabulous bread is this easy to make. And it only takes 4 ingredients: flour, salt, yeast and water. Hardbound book contains 100 fabulous recipes for healthy ethnic breads, whole wheat hamburger buns, pizza, corn bread, and gluten-free baking. Although they often use a mix of white flour and whole grain flour, I use only whole grain flour and the recipes turn out great. Bake your own artisan breads for just 40 cents per loaf!
