The last two years I bought flour in <A HREF="http://ostwestwind.twoday.net/stories/1292309/" REL="nofollow">Great Britain</A> to take it home to Germany ;-) to duplicate a recipe from Dan Lepard.<BR/><BR/>Happy baking and may your breads always rise.

This is a very ...Hi Ulrike<BR/>Thanks for this comment. This is a very good academic book, with lots of excellent and thoughtful information aout the state of commercial breadmaking today. There are also a lot of very detailed recipes. I think if you are interested in what goes into our flour and most of our bread you will find it interesting. I am sure that you don't need any help to make good bread! Your Poilane loaf looks very good. I think it is difficult for us in England to get the same flour as you use in Germany. I have written elsewhere about spelt flour, and if you haven't used it do try it.Junehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14900975029538416500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23925022.post-29833660640578574062007-05-21T12:53:00.000+01:002007-05-21T12:53:00.000+01:00Don't ask how I stumbled across your great blog b...Don't ask how I stumbled across your great blog but it's interesting and informative.

I have been too busy to bake bread for the last several weeks, and reading this immediately brought back the familiar feeling of joy and mystery I have about the bread-baking process. Thank you for the reminder!ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03131000671221354240noreply@blogger.com
