I've been making homemade bread for the last few months now. I have a good 'clean' recipie, but have been using store-bought flour until I felt like I'd really gotten the hang of this process. Well ... the bread is GOOD if I do say so myself. So why mess with perfection? To achieve higher perfection of course!
We want to be self-sufficient and have a store of supplies that can meet our needs with some extra. However, we don't want to be consuming gobs of kilowatt hours freezing everything. One of the ways we are adopting (thanks again to all those other homestead bloggers) is buying wheatberries in bulk and grinding our own flour on an as-needed basis.
I have finally used up all my store-bought flour. Today is the day I put my WonderMill in service and bake the weekly bread batch. I. AM. SO. EXCITED! Hubby suggested I video the process (and I just might) and post a YouTube link. Its a thought -- but I'm a little nervous about getting too far into the blogging/posting world before I really understand it well. Thank goodness for a teenage son -- he'll have loads of information I'm sure.
So -- I'll post a bit more after I go through the whole process. Unfortunately, the paying job requires some attention right now. Wish me luck!
