Nah, given my online research ( here), it appears they don't really make that much of a difference, Considering a food processor (again) instead. Not that Im sure I would use it for anything.

Christmas Tree 4003 Posted September 10, 2013 Author Share Posted September 10, 2013 Very ten years ago. So, 1. Does it not really taste any better than shop bought. 2. Even with all these new fangled ready mixes of different flavours is it still not worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meenzer 14131 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 So, 1. Does it not really taste any better than shop bought. 2. Even with all these new fangled ready mixes of different flavours is it still not worth it. It generally tastes better than shop-bought where shop-bought = "£1.50 or less". It generally tastes equal to the "artisanal" loaves you can pick up for more than that. It (and the "artisanal" loaves) generally keep for a fraction of what the shop-bought loaves keep for. There are good reasons for that, but if you're feeding yourself filth generally, the provenance of your bread is negligible. It generally ends up costing about the same as a bought "artisanal" loaf. If you're using a ready mix, you're not baking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meenzer 14131 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 It might sound like back-pedalling, but bear in mind I'm talking from the perspective of a household where there's two people, neither of whom eat a huge amount of bread. If you're 4-5 people and there's a buttered slice at the side of every plate at every meal, you won't have quite the same issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 17985 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 (edited) You'll end up eating a loaf a day to justify your purchase, especially if you don't like waste (which I personally hate). Note my earlier post, that's not moderation. Edited September 10, 2013 by Renton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj 17 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Oh well as it doesn't have all of the chemicals in that store bought bread does then it does go off quicker, but I doubt having to worry if it will be out long enough to go stale in your household will be a problem. (Especially once you've tasted how lush it is) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
