The Cottage Smallholder

Multigrain loaf in the breadmaker for husband's work sarnies.  I'll mix the dough up later for another go at a no-knead overnight prove bread.  Will try it less wet this time and see what difference that makes.  It's such a nice bread, even if it is flatter than I would like......the open texture, crust and lovely taste makes it one of the best breads I've tried.  And it makes lovely crunchy toast.

Val, I've also got a Pyrex jug which is more or less useless for accurate measurements......as the measurements have worn off

However, for the bread I've been using cups.....a small mug to be precise - 3 cups of flour to 1 1/2 cups of water.  I add a whole cup of water, followed by splashes out of the half-full cup.  My splashes have obviously been a bit too big thus far......will use less this time.  I do tend to be a bit haphazard and relaxed with measurements!
