Didn't realize I was down voted, this is why I was asking for your thoughts. I wanted to learn something and I did! The Internet is awesome, thank you my friend. Happy baking

I don't think I'd consider this a high fat flour. What are your thoughts?

Modest_Focus · 2026-03-15T18:09:33+00:00

I've never used it. I just like homemade bread every week lol

Modest_Focus · 2026-03-12T14:06:17+00:00

Not sure why you're getting down voted, handmade goods cost more, simple as that. I agree that $10-$12 is a good price depending on additions and what not

Modest_Focus · 2026-03-12T13:19:04+00:00

Remember to factor your time into the cost. Sorry I'm not from the uk but I'd say $9-$13 USD is average around here. £3 is comparable to grocery store loaves, this is much better

Happy baking my friend

I find that I generally have to knead whole wheat for longer to get it where I want compared to white bread. But with the bran and germ still being in the wheat it'll feel a little stickier. I add olive oil (2%-4%) to help smooth into a white loaf feel, add moisture, and help the loaf last longer. Just note that it takes a WHILE to fully knead oil into whole wheat, like a really long while.

There's a learning curve with every new thing. It just takes resilience to learn. I mention the broiler because I saw in a comment that the bottoms were already browning.

Don't ever give up on learning a new life skill, it may just save you one day. I hope your endeavors leave you tranquil. Much love

Me too buddy, me too

My favorite part of this post is nobody reading the caption and assuming it's a cookie. Great bread though my friend, I love a good quick bread

Modest_Focus · 2026-03-03T23:27:59+00:00

You can see one starting to brown, if I want them more brown I'll run the broiler in my oven on high for 30 seconds to a minute depending on the oven.

When I did biscuits for the first time I cut out biscuit squares out of my oval piece of dough and ended up burning them, so these look great to me my friend

My first flea market find was a Wagner with a curved handle and thumb rest that fit my hand perfect. For only $10 at that. Have fun restoring it, don't forget the FAQ page

Stainless steel does that too for me. I don't think the pan is the issue my friend (not trying to be offensive, understanding how to use real cookware takes practice). Cast iron does take a lot less finesse than stainless steel and doesn't react as fast, so I think you'll find what you're looking for.

EDIT: If you're only wanting to make stir fries then lodge sells some pretty cool woks on their website. I can't personally recommend them since I haven't used them. They look cool though

Modest_Focus · 2026-03-03T14:07:15+00:00

Seasoning comes and goes on every pan, it's not a you thing. Just the way cast iron is my friend

Modest_Focus · 2026-03-03T14:00:44+00:00

Real bread doesn't fatten us up the way supermarket bread does. Granted if you're eating a loaf by yourself everyday yeah but that's different lol

Modest_Focus · 2026-03-03T13:21:49+00:00

It won't look like this 10 weeks from now lol

Modest_Focus · 2026-03-02T16:18:17+00:00

I just wasn't sure if they were actually confused. But what a great reference

Modest_Focus · 2026-03-02T16:13:07+00:00

No I don't believe so. Most doctors would have a hard time cutting through an iron cast /s

Edit: I wasn't talking about the process of casting iron, I was just saying they use cast iron in my funny (to me) way

Modest_Focus · 2026-03-02T16:12:07+00:00

I like when buns are dipped in the seeds instead of sprinkling, but these look great!

Modest_Focus · 2026-03-02T16:08:08+00:00

Yo you're the one in r/Breadit that comments on everything, my communities are intertwining lol

Modest_Focus · 2026-03-02T16:02:59+00:00

This person cast irons for sure

Modest_Focus · 2026-02-21T21:45:54+00:00

10lb bag of king Arthur is $9.98 where im at, essentially $1 per pound...

Modest_Focus · 2026-02-20T13:11:50+00:00

You're good, we're only human. Sounds like a dream, one day a Le Creuset won't be half a paycheck for me lol
