Thanks, madwells1! I am familiar with the no knead method, but have never used a Dutch oven. Might be time to finally get one!

Preheat the dutch oven before throwing in your dough and give the top of the dough a spritz of water when throwing it into the oven and use the dutch oven's lid for the first part of the baking. I love this recipe from Serious Eats.

Thanks! I don't have a Dutch oven yet, but last night I made a no knead dough and today I baked it in a baking mold without lid. It doesn't look pretty, the crust isn't shiny at all, but it tastes great!

Use the same recipe and try to make buns on a flat baking sheet. Come out great and easy to freeze.

Was thinking of that, also easier to keep track of calories. With bread I weigh out each individual slice I cut off because they're all different, so rolls would make that part easier.

Cooked for a girlfriend that eats keto. Air fryer chicken wings with both Vietnamese caramel fish sauce and Buffalo sauce. Cauliflower rice and Thai pomelo salad.

Delicious day of eating! Vegan pizza, the Peking Express: five spice onion cream, hoisin pulled mushrooms, cashew mozzarella, gai lan, scallion ginger sauce, crispy shallots, fresh scallions and sesame.
Garlic knots and ranch dip. Also vegan.
Bulletproof protein smoothie.
Vegan ice cream: matcha coconut, mango lassi and maple cashew chocolate.
My tummy was very happy today!

Dinner: a fresh baguette from the oven (first attempt at these ever so I am happy they turned out--even shaped funny)! Well worth the calories today!

I second that!!! Salted glass fed butter on that baguette would absolutely make me a happy happy boy

Totally had this ^^ for breakfast, and even splurged on fresh cherry preserves with the salted butter!!!! My tummy is sooo happy!

Note to self: Stop making bread for awhile after this is all gone as my relatively healthy balanced diet has turned into carbs (bread) and fat (butter)!!

I am finishing my thesis right now, and should HOPEFULLY turn it in in May. Once done, I'm hopping back on the bread-making bandwagon. It's been so long. I have straight up bread so little now a days that I'd like to just eat what I make. HAHAHA WE'LL SEE ABOUT THAT...
