Bread

I've been winging it taking the best bits from other recipes. Its easy... just boiled then baked bread.

Basically its a lean (no fat) bread dough made slightly heavier than usual that has been boiled for 1 minute per side before baking for 20 minutes until brown. 1kg bread flour, 600ml water, 2% flour weight in salt, 2% of flour weight instant yeast is a good starting point.

Lots of different opinions on shaping methods, which ultimately doesn't really matter. They turn out great whichever way you do it. Traditionalists roll a sausage and then join the ends. Lazy people, like me, punch a hole with a finger. Some people don't bother with a hole, preferring a bap like end product.

If you want to give it a shot, just read the first few recipes on google and see what works for you really.
