OK OP listen up. /pnd/ user here, just straying over here because bored.

Here below is perfectionist bread. I've tried for years with a bread machine. Eventually found actual advice from proper bread maker, experimented myself and goddam! Finally something amazing.

This will make your bread loaf or pizza dough -super tasty- and max fluffy.

Use a bread machine if you like. I've got a cheapy Panasonic SD 2501.

Ingredients:

First Section (1 of 2)

480 grams white flour.

1 and 1/2 teaspoons of dry yeast. (Stored in freezer)

1 Tablespoon of salt.

2 Tablespoons of sugar.

380 mls of water.

Step 1) Put all this in the bread machine and run it on the 'dough' setting. Menu #22 on the Panasonic.

Step 2) It runs for 45 mins. Once it finishes, leave it sit for EXACTLY 45 minutes.

Step 3) At that finish time, now re-run the #22 dough machine for approx 5 minutes ONLY and press 'stop'. -OR- Fold the dough over, -gently- on a cutting board. Do this a few times for 2-3 minutes.

Step 4) Let it sit for EXACTLY 45 minutes again.

Repeat Step 3 & 4.

Then once more repeat Step 3 & 4

Now place that dough into a pre-flour dusted plastic bucket that's at least three times the size. Put it in the fridge overnight. Make sure the lid is loose or use a cling wrap cover.

Section 2, the next morning.

Take that big puffy dough ball and place it into the dough machine once more.

Add extra:

2 teaspoons of yeast.

1 Tablespoon of sugar.

Run on #22 or the dough mixing again.

You may add a sprinkle of water to make the yeast spread into the dough, if you do, also add aPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

I microwave mine.

Hear me out, anons, please.

After pouring the boiling water in and waiting a few minutes, they're nuked a minute at a time so that the cooking is mostly done by the hot water.

I then continue the poverty mode experience by having them in a slice of bread.

I've made raisin wine. I let them sit in water overnight, before running them trough a food processor. After a day of brewing, I scooped up most of the raisin, and pressed it trough a fine mesh piece of cloth. While it at first tasted extremely bitter, it mellowed out considerably once the slag had fallen to the bottom. I might try to filter out the slag pictured before drinking what's in the glass jar.

kombucha

>i hate you kombucha man

I wanted a Ginger Beer Plant, but there wasn't anyone around offering any.

After it taking 3-4 weeks of getting this to activate (a friend's gf had 2 year old stuff in the fridge), this lot is getting into the 3rd 'generation', and its starting to taste like 'ginger beer made with tea' a little.
