Happy September 1st

I made wheat sandwich bread. I am happy the way it turned out. A little dense and the top was hard. I just put butter on the top and it's fine. I found it hard to knead because it was sticking to my hands. Now I have a baseline to improve on.

Need to choose between KBS 3 pounder and Neretva 3.3 pounder. I bake about once a week with a very heavy dough of 3 parts whole wheat, 1 1/2 cups wheat bran, 1 1/2 cups flax meal and 1 cup ripe sourdough. My 3 pound Moosoo is giving up the ghost. Recommendations?

Does anyone know any salt bread (shio pan) workshop in Saigon, Vietnam? Please let me know. Thanks!

I made challah for the first time in six years! My braiding technique is rusty but I'm happy with how this turned out. I'm definitely going to be making more!

I was so meticulous with this batch. Did a great job with egg wash and seeding until … I didn’t boil them yet!
Disheartened, I went ahead and boiled some despite the egg wash and seeds. Not happy with their look I baked the remaining ones w/o the boil bath. The results are so far so good, but I will learn from this big mistake.

I've been having pretzel rolls recently and they make it seem like I'm going to gain HP even if the fillings are meager. Would recommend

First try. Outside of my comfort zone. Delicious.

I am so proud.

Edit:

Thank you all for such generous comments.

Here is the ingredient list i used:

1 cup warm water

2.25 tbs fleishmans active dry yeast

3 tbs pure cane sugar

2 tbs vegetable oil

1 egg

3.5 cups of all purpose flour

1 tps pink himalayan salt (fine)

I basically let my yeast activate.. added in all of my ingredients until it was in a ball and let it rise for 1 hour.

After 1 hour i kneaded my dough until it was elastic

I rolled it and sealed it and put it into my bread pan with some Pam cooking spray.

Let sit for 1 hour until it doubled in size.

Baked at 400f for 25 min.

Brushed a stick of butter across the top and let it sit for 45 min.

I made 2 batches of Peasant Bread tonight. Traditionally I have made the round loaves. Today I found some small Emile Henry loaf pans so I gave them a try. I’m very pleased with the results.

First time baking bread using fresh made dough and sesame seeds
