I am leaving my bread more and more to its own thing and enjoying the Improved flavour after a slow rise

I did paul Hollywood wholemeal yesterday which tastes great.  It’s all gone! 😳

Baked this Paul Hollywood white loaf  today,  starting it yesterday.  Going running now it’s out of the oven
Lovely to come home to with some black currant jam 😋

That looks lovely CQ, & I can just imagine it with that black currant jam. Is the PH wholemeal from his book? I’ve yet to find a good wholemeal recipe that works time after time

Don't know if this is allowed, but best wholemeal flour I've found, is Tesco's.

Ok, gave the Paul Hollywood wholemeal recipe a try except I had no wholemeal flour 🙄 but I did have a bag of Mathews Cotswold crunch so I substituted that & still added 100g of white bread flour as per recipe. Took along time to prove but I’m ok with that,it’s ready for tomorrow now as it’s just come out of the oven. I’m sure the picture will be upside down but seeing as it’s a round loaf you probably can’t tell 😂

If you are using an iPad or iPhone, that may be why some of your pictures are ending up the wrong way round.  My phone does it, even when they look the right way up when viewed on the phone.  The only way I have found works it is to rotate the picture right round all 4 ways before loading it on here.  That way it seems to stay the way up you want it.

The bread looks lovely btw  :)

Yes I do use my iPad,actually that photo is the right way up, although the other photos I posted yesterday on the harvest thread were upside down.

The Brown was the Paul Hollywood,but I’m not sure about the white,2nd picture, he’s been making it so long, he’s adapted it to suit us.
