I've been wanting to try one of the no-knead bread recipes, but they all seem to call for baking the bread inside a clay pot in the oven. I'm not up for that! However, the LifeHack.org no-knead ciabatta bread seems do-able. I may try it!
I haven't made bread for awhile. When I did it regularly , I used a bread machine. It always came out too crumbly for sandwiches, which I guess means it's under-kneaded? I could take the dough out and knead it by hand, but they why have a bread machine? (answer - so I'll stop burning the loaves, lol). You can also make it less crumbly by upping the gluten. I'm already using bread flour, which has high gluten content, but maybe I should start adding vital gluten as well. ( seems like cheating, but at this point I'll gladly cheat to make some better bread.)
EDIT: ack, my dw style has links in the exact same font as regular text. must fix!
EDIT2: done, much better. Turns out regular links are ok, but visited links are set to the font-color as regular text. I put in some css to bold all links in entry content, hopefully that won't screw up anything in the rest of the style.
EDIT3: One of the folks on food porn tried it and said it wasn't very tasty. Maybe I'll go with my old standby, which is the below minus the cheese.
