Your loaves are beautiful, Becca. Your love affair with your loaves is working out.

My dad was a salt-rising bread fan!

Thank you, Shelton. And HOORAY, someone else who knows what salt rising bread is!

Bread has always been one of my favorite foods. I used to make it from scratch, grinding my own wheat berries and using the old Tassajara bread book from the 70s. But as I got older, I developed a terrible sensitivity to onions and wheat, both part of the fructan family. Today, I forgo chewy Italian bread hot from the oven and dredged in olive oil. Wah, wah, wah! Poor me! Yes, your bread looks to die for, and though it wouldn't kill me, it would make me woefully ill.

Oh, my gosh! I had not thought of Tassajara bread book for years. I used to have a copy and made cinnamon rolls from it and experimented with a few other if their recipes. I am so sorry about the sensitivities that you’ve developed! I think I would definitely struggle with that.

I literally sat down and ate a piece of bread with peanut butter on it and said to Mitch, “This bread is soo good!” Not homemade, but store bought.

🤪 Your breads look beautiful!

Your cranberry and walnut bread makes my mouth water just thinking about it.
