This is my family's new favorite bread at dinner.
It is this recipe and once you make it, you'll want to make it again and again. It is light and feathery inside, and buttery crisp on the outside, and soooo easy to make. No kneading necessary. Just two rises and you bake them in small glass Pyrex bowls.
I made these loaves using half white (unbleached) flour and half whole wheat pastry flour, so mine didn't get as much loft as the ones on the recipe page, but they were still light and airy.
"The wife is like the fire, or to put things in their proper proportion, the fire is like the wife.
Like the fire, the woman is expected to cook: not to excel in cooking, but to cook,
.... be a cook, but not a competitive cook,
a school mistress, but not a competitive schoolmistress; a house-decorator but not a competitive house-decorator, etc...
She should have not one trade but twenty hobbies; she... may develop all her second bests.
Women were not kept at home in order to keep them narrow;
on the contrary, they were kept at home in order to keep them broad."

Looks delicious :-) I'll certainly be trying this recipe soon. Thanks for posting it.
That bread looks great. I can't wait to try it. Thank you for the link to her videos that show the dough and instructions. Seeing it really helps.
I probably tried this recipe about the same time you did. I used less wheat than yours and didn't have 2 glass bowls, so I used a small casserole pan for one of mine. It was a hit, especially with Jordan.
Made this twice already and we all love it! Thank you. BTW I finally posted that butternut squash soup recipe to my food blog. ;-)
