I used to get bread from a old school French baker in downtown Dallas of all places. I don't know where he gets his wheat (he mills it himself) but the bread was like nothing I've ever eaten. One time I ate half a loaf for dinner with nothing on it at all, it's so tasty.
You need to tell us the place!

> In addition sliced bread is subject to every health-related fad in existence. Low carb bread? Sure. How could you have "low carb bread"? Bread is a big bundle of carbohydrate. It'd be like low sugar caramel.
This one is fantastic, and only 1g carbohydrate per serving because it's primarily fiber and protein: http://www.holdthecarbs.com/low-carb-fresh-baked/low-carb-wh... (The company has some sort of patented flour substitute that they make by stripping digestible starches from wheat flour and replacing them with flax and resistant starch.) But yeah, as bad_user points out this kind of thing raises questions about the se…
Ironically, sliced bread is the worst. Normal bread can get stale, dry and hard. But packaged sliced bread is much less perishable. I've seen sliced bread having the same texture and taste after a whole week of lying on a kitchen countertop. And when you read the ingredients on its packaging, you begin to understand why, as sliced bread is subject to the techniques of processed foods such as the addition of preservat…

Recipe? :D
No knead bread 3 cups of flour, 2 teaspoons of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of instant yeast. Mix in a bowl. Add 1.5 cups water, mix in. A wooden spoon, especially bamboo, is nice for mixing, but you can use anything, even your hand. Cover (lid, or plastic wrap), let sit for 12 to 20 hours. Afterwards, you should see bubbles or "craters" of bubbles on top. If after 12 hours not yet much bubbles, let sit longer. If change of pl…

Eh, maybe modern processed bread that has sugar in it. Questionable otherwise, unless you have a source.
Agriculture was terrible for our health - even before sugar became a part of our diet. http://discovermagazine.com/1987/may/02-the-worst-mistake-in...

What size dutch oven? 5 quart/liter such as: http://www.amazon.com/Lodge-L8DD3-Casserole-Skillet-5-Quart/...
Contrary to what someone said, I think bread is not a case where specialization pays off. Bread needs to be fresh, and it will basically take me longer to buy a loaf (if I could actually find a decent one) than to throw together one in the kitchen while I'm working on something else.
Not to mention that my half-assed bread, fresh, is better than the most awesome bread in existence if it's a day old. Hawaii is a terrible environment for bread, the crust is gone after a few hours due to the humidity.

I took you literally on those 5 minutes. ;) That one says 15. I was mainly hoping for the 2/3rd reduction in labor because I'm a lazy sob.
Quadruple the dough and use it on 4 consecutive days. It will average pretty close to 5 minutes then. Also cut the dough and do not tear it.

Wow this is great! Any thoughts if I could substitute something lower carb for the flour? Flax meal, or almond or coconut flour?
This headline is broken. And so is every headline that depends upon the "X is Broken" trope.
But I'm a bit disappointed that they didn't take the chance to make a "Bread Considered Harmful" headline.
