Bread, bread, glorious bread

Sour dough loafs are my fav. Bap rolls. Corn bread. I may actually stop at a local bakery after my workout purely due to your thread!

Pretzels. Fresh from the oven. No further comment necessary. :drool:

We have family movie night and make pretzels for it every once in awhile. Mmm. Yum.

The bakery I go to also makes pretzel croissants, which are fantastic.

There's a stand at the train station. I treat myself to one of them once a week (on the last day of the week on my way home for the weekend ). It's my little ritual and those calories are soooooooooooooooooooo worth it.

Got me some Vienna sourdough and chocolate croissants

I make sourdough rye and roll it in seeds (sunflower, pumpkin, sesame, poppy) before baking, yummm. Mmmm I think it's lunch time!

I enjoy some artisan breads, but mostly I am drawn towards the simple yeast rolls and Hawaiian sweet rolls. When cutting calories, my go to is Ole Xtreme Wellness tortillas. 50 calories. I will roll one up and eat it plain. They are moister than most tortillas and taste a lot like a whole wheat roll.

Bread shouldn't be sweet for me. Otherwise anything very fresh with butter so thick you can see your teeth marks in it :-)

Could it have been malt loaf?

I've never even heard of that... it looks similar, though not quite. This was definitely store made, and it had HUGE slices. I might have to go find some recipes for malt bread though...

Yum, so good.

Side story: I have one of the Paula Deen's cookbooks. She has a recipe for a garlic cheese roll. I made it several times but always thought it wasn't nearly as buttery/garlicky as I thought it should be. One day I was looking through the book for another recipe, flipped past the page for the garlic cheese roll, and found out that the recipe actually continues onto that next page where it tells how to make the butter/garlic mixture to put on top. Very weird editing choice.

I hate the split page recipe. Even when the layout makes it clear there is more to the recipe, I find it annoying to flip back and forth.

my favorite is crusty baguette with butter, hardly ever have it, also love jewish rye & 12 grain bread. Buttermilk bread. The only kind I eat now a days is the cheap white bread, 55 calories & only have it when I need to put something on bread

I went to Jungle Jim's over the weekend and sampled all kinds of tasty breads. But, the one I tried that was different and new was a Gata bread (an Armenian sweet bread). It was so yummy, like a dessert. It would be amazing in a French toast casserole.

Other yummy finds: Jalapeno Cheddar Pretzel Bread and Pepperoni Pretzel Bread

But my absolute favorite standby bread is an Amish White Bread or good old Sourdough (with lots of salted butter!)

Oh Yes - A nice salty soft pretzel is hard to beat. I like mine plain, no fancy cheese or dips. Just a plain soft pretzel with butter and salt.

Reminds me of the Jamie Oliver cookbook I've got. I always get the ingredients out before I start cooking and line them up in the order they're mentioned in the ingredient list. There's one particular recipe I followed and at the end I had a little bowl with a beaten egg in it which I hadn't used. Very odd I thought, perhaps I skipped a line. Went back and checked everything line by line, but still couldn't see where this damn egg was added. I called my husband into the kitchen and asked him if he could work out where the flipping egg should be added. He was also stumped.

In the end, as always when I have a tricky problem, I sought the answer on the internet, and it turns out that my copy of the book is a first edition and the recipe had been altered, but the proof reader had forgotten to remove the egg from the list of ingredients. There must have been hundreds of very puzzled people all wondering what the hell they were going to do with a leftover egg.
