Bread

So I finally got around to making Mark Bittman's no-knead bread from that Times article a few years back. It really is as astonishingly easy as everyone says it is, and would be a great standard to bring to a dinner party--everyone loves fresh bread and it's awfully inexpensive.

You need a Dutch oven in which to bake it, and while I'm sure lots of you have fancy Le Creusets, I will take this opportunity to reiterate my belief that all you need is a good heavy cast-iron pot. I have this one, thanks to my dad, and use it constantly.

You may have noticed that my comments are off. I was getting a ton of spam. Eventually I'm going to mover-ing over to Wordpress but for now if you have a comment you can do one of the following (in order of preference)

1. Get on a bus to Philadelphia and tell me in person
2. Write me an email
3. Send me a text message
4. Keep it to yourself
5. Call me (good lord I can't stand the telephone)
