Man that bread looks good! Thanks, I like it too - for me it’s the proper size for a Peanut type knife - everything the Peanut could be if it grew up just a tiny bit. OH



I agree with you. For whatever reason (known only in Bradford PA), Case labeled this knife a Texas Jack. For me it is the perfect size Penknife, maybe they should have named it the Rhode Island Jack!

Agreed :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Apparently there were a lot of new or understocked bakers, because yeast seems to be unobtainium.

I suppose it has to do with supply and demand of packaging for commercial bakers vs retail...

I found some finally ! It was packaged by the store in plastic containers from bulk and it didn't last long. My sponge was open air and a two day ferment so it supercharged the small addition of additional yeast. It turned out light with good crumb :)
Yeast, yikes! My wife wanted to make some Pizza, but no yeast! Donned my mask and went to many grocers only to discover that yeast is the new TP.
We ended up ordering a 2 pound bag of freeze dried yeast online. Needless to say, we're awash in yeast, but running out of flour!:eek:

WTT: yeast for flour! ;):D

I hope you can get someone to rise to the occasion :thumbsup:
 
Holy smokes! The Crookes tang stamp ranks right up there with the Hammer Brand, and Taylor’s Eye Witness for cool factor.:cool:

I bake some killer breads. The problem is that neither my wife nor I can control ourselves!

But dough for home made pizza~ oh yeah! And given how easy it is to make, I can’t understand how people can eat the stuff from the freezer at the store.

Pro tip: buy good chunk cheeses and shred your own. Store bought shredded cheeses contain wood pulp as an “anti caking” additive:confused:

Oh my wife makes a margherita pizza to die for! Only the best fresh ingredients and we always shred or grate from a wedge. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!

Been carrying mostly small modern knives with supersteel lately... I had a big project on the yard that I knew would take a lot of rough use, cutting tough stuff and that it probably ding up the edge of whatever I was using. I pulled out my Sodbuster Jr. The edge was as bad as I thought when I was done, but 2 minutes on the hard Arkansas stone had it back to hair whittling. Guess what's in my pocket today?
