People who have made Nutty's no knead bread or similar--what are the advantages? Is the flavour better than other breads you have made?
Tastes as good as any homemade bread, though you can do with it what you please. Also, very little work comparatively. If you have a lot of time, see here for about 140 threads on the topic of this bread recipe: [link]
Agave bread, ita? Really?
I love C&H. But do I love it, love it with an urge to reread? not so much.
as good as any homemade bread
Hmm. I will go poking through the threads. I settled on my particular weekly bread (damn, I wish it smelled better with the agave substitutions) because it has a rich, almost challa-esque taste. I'm not sure what "as good as any homemade bread" means in that context. There are quickbreads and fancy breads and, well, you know--the world. I have a mixer that does most of the kneading for me, but I like to get my hands on the dough anyway.
If the perk is no kneading, then it's not particular upgrade for me. If it results in more complex flavours, then it might be worth making that mess for.
It's definitely nothing like challah. It's a little chewy, a little sour, killer crust.
Kat! Been missing seeing you around.
I must admit, agave bread sounds so damned weird to me. Mainly because my parents had a HUGE agave plant in their front yard that took a gardening crew nearly a week to remove. It involved chainsaws hacking it to bits and a heavy duty truck with a winch and then chains and a huge pit and ...it was such a debacle. I have negative agave associations. Besides, those things are pokey. It was nice when it was small. But 15 years of access to excess water....

We were just saying this this afternoon too. Cass says hi!
Hey, Kat! Yeah, I swapped agave nectar for the honey in my standard bread recipe. Curious.
It's a little chewy, a little sour, killer crust.
The crust in the pictures I've seen looks amazing.
Okay, off to try my bread which I do not trust.
You know what's good? A monte cristo sandwich made with challah. OMG.
What's even better? That sandwich with a raspberry chipotle jam.
I want fresh baked bread. And some mental help. And some brute physical help too.
all of you people stop making me hungry.
