I've always wanted to make 'real' bread, but don't have the patience for the process. I know... some of you are gasping in horror at the idea of that. And recently, my neighbor shared an Amish Friendship Bread with me that was divine (I will be getting the starter for that on friday! YAY!), so I thought about doing some sourdough bread. THAT looks involved, as well.
Well, I came across this, and it looks just simple and quick enough that I might actually manage to do something with it...

So I need to run to the store to get some yeast, since I don't hold onto that for very long, and then I'll whip up a batch for this evening. Might not bake anything until tomorrow, but there are several incredible-looking recipes on the artisan bread in five minutes a day website that I think just might have to get tried, at least once. :P They say this master recipe makes up to 4 loaves, but the recipe in the book is actually double that, from what I've seen, so you can make dessert breads and pizza crusts, as well.
Anyhow... thought I'd share. I'm going to see how it works out, and i have the perfect crock for it to live in the fridge. :)
Edited to add: I have no idea why 'Total Eclipse of the Heart' video is showing up, or if it's just showing up on mine becasue another friend posted it... but the correct video seems to be in place on my actual LJ page. Go figure.
PS the bread turned out really nummy! Can't wait to experiment more!
