Bikini beer! 🍺

No not that.

Just finished today's brew.
Outside in the sunshine.

Washed up, with the hose

Drank my coffee

Done at 9.00 just in time to pop dirty loaf in the oven.

Have a great day everyone...

An early finish is always nice, 9 am is doing well though

One of our cats used to get on our bed, wash herself, and settle to sleep as we were getting up. I realised that anything she was planning to do that day, she'd already done.

That's a new euphemism to me, I hope you washed your hands after.

BIA...Bikini

 

[MashBag]

Haha. Never saw that BIAB weather.

It does sound like that

But I am putting together the easiest, cleanest loaf instructions for a new baker.

Easiest is what I call hour bread.

Make a wet dough, put it in a metal casserole dish lined with oiled grease proof paper. Put the lid on and stick it in a cold oven. Put the oven on 180 bake for about 45 mins. If you want it browning remove the lid for the last ten mins.

 

[MashBag]

Cripes that easier than what I am trialling with a frying pan and greaseproof.

@Twostage

Good question. I think it was about 400g, haven't done it for while. I added water by sight. It needs to be very wet.

The texture when cooked is very bubbly, like a sponge (creature not cake).

 

[MashBag]

I have taken your idea and abused it. 400g sounds about right to me.

I have already mixed the dough (lob in - no knead - no autolysys) and banged it in the fridge.

Tomorrow, greaseproof and 180c bake (not fan) and we will see.

Why a bit wet? Thermal thing?

Quite enjoying the challenge. But fear I might be making bread for the chickens.

 

[hop-a-long]

You can do the same with a cast iron DO loaf pan over an open fire.
