Why I want to be mentor: I'd love to help others realize that baking yeast breads from scratch (and by hand vs a bread machine) isn't nearly as difficult as one might think.

Why I want to be mentor: I am committed to sharing what I have learned with others in this suggestion so that they may begin eating wonderful breads.

krashed24
Elkhart, IN
Mentor In: Bread, Poultry
Why I want to be mentor:
Lesson Learned: Baking is a science and if you don't follow the recipe exactly your results could be disappointing.
