How I bake bread

Actually, there are a lot of different ways we bake bread in this house. Paul bakes gluten free. And a post or six will come on that soon I am sure! I used to bake using the breadmaker, but I am trying to keep that gluten free for Paul. Lately I have been playing with the methods in the book http://www.artisanbreadinfive.com/ You basically make up a big batch of dough once a week (or every few days ... depending how much you eat) and pull off "chunks and cook it that way. Today we are making 100% whole wheat sandwich bread. Seriously it took 5 min to mix the dough, and now we are waiting for it to rise. Not gluten free .... but Miss E and I (so far) are not on a gluten free diet. And we are careful in our house with cross contamination. What has me REALLY EXCITED though is they have a NEW BOOK coming!! Healthy bread in five minutes a day! And it has some GLUTEN FREE recipes! 69 days to go! I can't wait!
