Artisan Bread.

I have the best news ever. Baking bread could not be easier!! My friends have told me a few times about this great recipe for Artisan bread in just 5 minutes a day. I was skeptical. The last time I used yeast for rolls...it was a major disaster.  Think flat, unleavened bread.  Gross.  Anyway, you can see why I was so hesitant to try anything else.

But, I succumbed to peer pressure.. And it was amazing. There are 4 ingredients. Flour, water, yeast & kosher salt.

You don't knead it....unlike the old school way in this pic :)  You just stir till dough forms. Cover and rise for 2-5 hours.  Then...get this..you put it in your fridge for up to 2 weeks!! When you want to make bread, just tear it off in chunks, let it rest a little and pop it in the oven.

Dave & I couldn't believe how yummy it was! And the smell of homemade bread in the house is unbeatable.  Tonight, I made little calzones with meatballs & spinach with the dough. They were delicious!

I am really looking forward to making: pizza, bread rolls, cinnamon rolls, sandwich bread...and even trying whole grain recipes.

So, try it. Let me know what you think!
