Hey there Chad – I’m really glad that it’s given you a new tool in your food arsenal. I’m actually starting to look for additional bread approaches just for fun – but this is our staple.

Thanks for reading – I didn’t know you did!

Jeremy,

So I read the article and shortly after bought the book and necessary tools….you have a way with words, you silver-tongued devil! I’ve been baking these loaves myself now for about 6 months and have completely ruined store-bought bread for my wife and myself, family and friends. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction! The amount of work vs the payoff is incredible…I experimented with a slashed loaf and a handful of shredded Asiago cheese and the cheese bread was huge hit! Irish butter seems to pair really well with these loaves, (in moderation of course.)

I now have a new reputation as the “Bread Guy” thanks to you, to go along with my infamous hot wings and “Chad’s ‘The Bomb’lettes” – I’ll gladly share the recipes for both, but they have NO place on this site. Thanks again my friend!
– Chad L.

Thanks for the recommendation. I’ve got my first batch of bread dough rising on the counter right now. Can’t wait until tomorrow night’s dinner!

Great Blog Jeremy! Congrats on the Reuters pick-up!! I can smell and taste the bread in your articles. Ahh, how I miss glutenous loaves! I am on a search for a simple, bake in the oven, G-F recipe, so I’ll let you know when I find one. -Krista

That book SO tempts me. I may buy it out of sheer curiosity. But I sure better get a handle on the bread thing before I do! I don’t know what it is about bread, but I can eat it plain, no adornments and practically non-stop.

Evil, evil, evil!

Though the odd thing is, as much as I like bread, I don’t actually CRAVE it unless it is in front of me or in the house. I never feel tempted to buy it at the store. And I can happily walk into Subway and order a salad instead of a sandwich. It’s a weird relationship.

Hi Anne-Marie,

I would say that your husband and I are kindred in this way. That is my intention as well – I’m now on my 7th loaf, with enough for a week’s worth of fresh bread already mixed. And I must say, its for a similar set of reasons!
