As month 3 comes to a close I feel pretty good about what I was able to accomplish.  I made a lot of bread and towards the end really felt like I was getting the hang of it all.  There were some problems I ran into with the starter and shaping the loaves but I feel like I was able to overcome most of the challenges.  There were some things that I didn’t get a chance to do but think I’ll still try.  Namely – I didn’t get to try baking bread in my outdoor grill.  Oh well – I can always still do that.

Im glad I used a couple of different resources to learn about making bread though.  By using both books I was able to get two different perspectives on baking which was helpful when I was running into issues.  I also spent a fair amount of time watching YouTube videos on shaping loaves when I was having issues doing that.

At any rate – I really enjoyed learning how to bake bread and I think it’s something I’ll continue to do going forward.
