I just need to learn how to make bread … bread maker … worth it?

No knead bread if you dont need sandwich shape and have a dutch oven.

 

[Strixaluco]

Looked this up and a bit expensive to import. There are some local chocolaters(sp).

True. It's a lot more expensive to order there than buy here.

I also don’t have an oven … just a toaster oven

Definitely worth it then, for fresh bread

OMG. My mother had a neighbor who would make a Russian bread. She’d bake the bread and you could smell it all over the neighborhood. Smelled soooo good

Well... They are easy to use. And you can time it for the breakfast for example.

But no-knead breads are so easy and delicious, that you better think carefully if you you have place for such a bulky item in your kitchen.

No instant pot either?

I have ALL the appliances lol …. I’m a sucker for a good appliance

Nope… it’s another on my “should I get this” list

It has more uses than breadmaker, you can also use it for baking the bread.

Like Nebs, I have to go. In my case, I put on my taxi hat. Maybe later tonight for sure tomorrow morning coffee and tea ready. I might have some muffins too!

Wow! Chaos is flying today!
Carry on good people, carry on!

Drive safely!

I’ve not seen her in a while. My mom passed so no need to go over there.

 

[Deadbed1968]

Hows your eye?

Still looks like hell, but the discomfort is pretty much gone! My vision is pretty blurry in that eye. I see the surgeon again in a couple of weeks.

Thank you for asking!

Swings by and picks up OP, PG. hits Rocky Mountain chocolate factory. Heads to Little Owls with a care package and friends

 

[VoraciousValue]

Did you use warn cloths? Both a friend and nurse have suggested a cold tea bag. I will let you know if it wworks.

No, my opthalmologist prescribed a spray applied with makeup cotton rounds. Worked pretty well.

Same, but then I don't end up using them. There's a bread maker and Ninja Foodi in the basement now. Now the Ninja Air Fryer Oven? I use that all the time.

Do you have a kitchen aid stand mixer?

The lack of oven is the critical point here.

 

[Bry1313]

Just noticed that, ok bread makers do an ok job of baking if you lack oven. Homemade bread overall 10x better than store bought so whatever it takes to do homemade.

I’ve been making pita bread every week and it’s the stuff for sure.

 

[Strixaluco]

When I could still eat normal bread I favoured dark ryebread, and that's something that the bread makers can't handle. Haven't learned to bake it myself, either, though... Wheat bread is better eaten occasionally only. Unless you eat wholewheat bread, which isn't that common.

That bread I leave to the professionals

That’s kinda what the Russian lady baked. She baked it in like a tube stoneware thing in the oven.
