Hmmm. I'm sure I'll have questions in the future. How much practice does it take to get good at it?

Back in another life--before I had kids--I used to bake bread religiously.

If you want to get serious about it, you should definitely grow your own starter. I'd also recommend picking up Nancy Silverton's Breads from La Brea Bakery, which served as my bread-baking bible when I was learning the craft. With a starter and that book, you can bake excellent bread on your first try.

Thanks. You two will be hearing from me in the next 8 weeks! Need to make a great baguette.

I have a starter with a partner...I don't know how that's going to go. I might start my own for a backup. It makes me nervous when I don't know what I'm doing.

Classic Tall Midget.

It’s not really my thing these days....but here’s an incredibly detailed response.

But I would eat that bread....well...maybe not after this post....

It's really not difficult.

It's as basic as could be for even the shittiest cooks for thousands of years.

start with a basic yeast bread to get some experience handling dough, rising, shaping, baking etc. Sourdough adds a bunch of variables which complicate things immensely.

Parker House Rolls are a staple of mine around the holidays. It does take some practice.

Cooking is not baking, bro. Baking requires a precision that cooking does not.

I was in on the breadmaker appliance craze of 1998-2001. It actually made a pretty good loaf of bread.
