So... anyone have any good recipes for a bread maker?

[–] Alteon@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Can you do sourdough in a bread maker?

[–] Rocketpoweredgorilla@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

I think so although I haven't tried it yet. I've only done bagels, raisin bread, and normal bread so far.

Did you know you can make Jam in a bread machine?? Really yummy

[–] Rocketpoweredgorilla@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

I did not. Now I'm going to have to try it, sounds really good!

Got a line on freshly leoparded face, I presume?

[–] Simulation6@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 month ago

I have tried a couple of these and they turned out good. The trick of heating the water and letting it and the sugar and yeast sit for 5 minutes before completing the recipe helped my bread a lot.

Is suggest one with sunflower seeds

A very useful idiot. I hope he didn't manage to murder any Ukrainians before the Russians killed him.

[–] SGforce@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Seems he wasn't a good enough fighter so they made him a talking head instead.

[–] awwwyissss@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Sad to think that maybe he realized he was being used and that's why they murdered him.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

He was very happy to be used.

Presumably they thought he was a spy.
