While this bread was pretty good, it was VERY hearty and "wheaty". I think next time I'll mix in the all purpose flour to lighten it up a bit. Or I could add nuts and some spices to go the other direction, and I'd do a smaller loaf. The cool thing is I ate this all week and still have some left over, and I decided to make croutons out of the rest which will be a nice hearty addition to salads.I made my first loaf of bread from the heirloom stone ground wheat flour. This was a 50/50 blend of artisan bread flour and heritage blend from Hayden flour mills. It came out pretty good! This was a no-knead method I found on YouTube. Just water, flour salt and yeast.

Here's some really easy flatbread recipes, I made the Paratha bread tonight, which is probably the most delicious but also time consuming one. It's basically like a flat Croisant, very good! The others in the video are flour tortilla's, Lavash, and a super fast emergency recipe.

Celery seed ... or use the celery fronds. That slight bitter plays well with the rich egg/mayo.I'm gonna make egg salad tomorrow but I'm going to try my hand at homemade white bread, and I ain't putting all that crap in there, I don't like pickles in it, just mayo, a tiny bit of mustard, scallions, salt, pepper and a bit of Hungarian hot paprika.

This is the bread recipe I used today. I just scaled it down 20% because I only have one small 8x4 bread pan. I used roughly 50/50 all purpose and artisan bread flour. It turned out really well! Very tasty and soft. Obviously it's not "white" bread but it's very similar in texture and softness.
