As I've mentioned I've been craving fresh bread this cut like crazy. I'm making bread most days and I've got it down pretty good. I'm also starting a sourdough experiment, I've never tried sourdough but this week I made a starter and it's coming along, I'll probably have my first sourdough loaf next week. These loaves are made with commercial yeast and 20% whole wheat flour. The last picture was a little overcooked but they are delicious, never going back to store bought bread. They're better tasting contain only flour, water, a little salt and yeast and cost about 60 cents each plus whatever power the oven uses. Plus I think it's kinda fun to make and rewarding as a bit of a hobby or whatever you want to call it.

I bought a cast Dutch oven on Amazon for $55 and I came with a few other things, it so nice gives a good oven spring. I'll probably try to make pizza dough sometime when I'm not on a diet. That flatbread looks pretty good man, is that loaf 100 whole wheat? I haven't tried that yet.

No it's just regular flour, but I often add about 20% whole wheat. The cast iron pot really gives it a gnarly crust. Great for dipping in stews and chili etc

I can eat an enormous amount of bread fresh out of the oven. 🐷
 
My wife started making sourdough a few months back.
I eat some every night with my eggs for supper.
I wont even touch grocery store bread.
 
@Slartibartfast also casts his own cast iron pans in his foundry. Gets the flour from the wheat farm that he tends to by hand. Grinds it into flour in his stone mill windmill that he constructed on his own. Loomed the threads to complete the windmill sails aswell. What the fuck cant this guy do?
