Greetings from canada

[bread & butter]

my first attempt at an online discussion group - bear with me, please!
Live with my darlin and dogs on a beautiful lake in B.C. - we are semi-retired ranchers but do odd part-time work. Travel to Wyoming for 5 months in the summers to help care for our elderly mothers.
Am a novice naturalist and weaver and spinner but my first love is making and baking bread. Use organic whole wheat we mill ourselves and purchase organic unbleached flour for my "hearth" bread. Have had jersey milkcows in the past, and also love making butter - hence the nickname.
Wanted to ask folks about the health benefits of slow fermented bread - as well as a bit of scientific info regarding the process.
B&B

Welcome bread and butter
We have a bread and sandwich topic here on Dc, that you can post this question to our members. I'm sure one of our bread bakers will jump right in to help...I've made a long rise bread and prefer it to the reg rise...In fact am looking for more recipes so that I can advance past the one i've been using..So post a question over on Breads and Sandwiches and I'm sure you will get some helpful answers...

Welcome to the forum!

I love baking bread too but don't get much opportunity to do so. I hope you'll post some bread making tips

Hi! Is slow fermented bread the same as a slow rise bread?

 

[bandonjan]

Welcome Bread & Butter! I love bread, sour dough is my
favorite. See you in the bread section....

It's funny how our minds work. When I first saw your name, Bread & Butter, the first thought I had was bread and butter pickles. The funny thing is that I love bread and butter (especially warm sourdough), and I hate bread and butter pickles! I'm glad you have decided to join us, and I look forward to reading your posts about bread and anything else you want to talk about.
