breadmaking - Profile (original) (raw)

on 25 June 2003 (#1142531)

Bakers of bread and aspiring bakers of bread.

This is a community for discussing breadmaking techniques, recipes, tools, etc.

We are pro-bread, but not anti-muffin. We are pro-DIY but not anti-breadmachine. We are pro-sourdough but not anti-yeast. We encompass all aspects of the bread experience, from unleavened flatbread to brie-stuffed brioche.

However we are opposed to the evil of prepackaged supermarket petrobread, whether dumpster-dived Wonderbread or chichi boutique foccacia wrapped in recycled paper. Leave those charlatans behind and bake your own: your soul will reap the benefits.
