Am I Right In Noticing?

I have to disagree here lol

I have baked bread before after being 'donated' a breadmaker but I don't have the patience because I'm not that interested in it. It got 'rehomed' after a few weeks.
My Mother actually called me to let me know she'd baked her own bread for the first time, recently. She asked if I needed any doorstops
I can't be much use on a bread thread

odd you say that because recently iv notice warburtons in particular dosnt last more than a day before it starts going stale where as the same bread a few years ago would last quite a few days with just the end tucked over.

unless its poor storage of it by asda i dont know but warurtons just dosnt seem to last as long as it once did.Maybe the paper they are wrappe din isnt all that air tight so it starts going off fast on teh shelf before its even bought

plastic bags are better for bread you can just slap and spin teh bread then tuck the plastic tail underneath teh loaf

You are of course right sugarmouse. it was a tongue-in-cheek comment, not meant to cause any offence.

I buy additive free bread (expensively)

How much does it cost Margaret?, I know gluten free bread is quite expensive, is it in the same bracket?

It's very difficult to offend me

I'm not sure on additive free but on the few occasions I have made bread-I got much better results when I made gluten free-it was much easier I found.

Making gluten free bread is more expensive I would have thought

I got a bulk order from -
Slow Rise
prices are shown.

The loaves are large - and since I only eat one slice a day at the most, I needed to cut, bag and freeze them.

Prices seem in line with gluten free bread Margaret, mind you those hot cross buns looked tasty

I used rice flour-which wasn't so expensive I found. It's fairly easy to make your own but I couldn't be bothered

I can't remember where I got the recipe from but this one looks very similar;

Simple Gluten Free Bread Recipe

Mine took longer than that though I seem to remember.

That's the problem with any bread - if you only eat a small amount daily, you have a lot to deal with as finding small loaves that are fit for eating rather than just filling you up isn't easy. No wonder so much gets wasted.

Ya but that's not gluten free in the true sense of the word SM, its rice bread okay its gluten free all right, the other half uses gluten free flour, mind you she doesn't bake bread these days but she's great with cakes etc., that good I bought her a mixer

[Sunflower49]

Lol there's no pleasing you, is there

I wonder if it might work with gluten free flour though actually?

I'm a member of the vegan forum-some of the members also live gluten-free. I'll ask-see if I can find something for you whilst I'm at it, I'm curious myself.
