I love good bread. Scott and I have made bread via a breadmaker since we shacked up together years ago. On a ski trip to Sugarbush, Vermont, a hundred years ago, we ate at an amazing place called The Warren Store, http://www.warrenstore.com/, and I decided that being a baker was a very noble profession. Maybe I can make it my third or fourth, someday.
Our second Williams-Sonoma breadmaker died a few months ago after a long and productive life. Actually, just the pan died. And since WS has changed their once fantastic replacement policy, we can no longer locate, let alone buy, a replacement pan. Boo WS. But, I am inspired to limit the number of appliances in the new kitchen. So I will go forth and attempt to make bread the old-fashioned way.
When the kitchen is finished, that is. In the meantime, I can enjoy this video about some true noble bakers, courtesy of GOOD.com. Hope you do too.

I will totally come over and make bread with you in your new kitchen. It's one of my fondest memories of my childhood, making bread with my mom.
ReplyDeleteEvery time I eat a super yeasty oatmeal bread, I remember fondly those days.
