Flour, water, yeast, and salt
My weekly go-to bread is the Master Recipe on page 53 of


Healthy Bread in Five Minutes a Day
Flour, water, yeast, and salt plus vital wheat gluten produces a lively batch of bread dough in about 2 hours.

4 lbs of HBin5
A few hours in the fridge calms the yeast down--in this case it rested overnight. The next morning half of the dough was cut off, shaped into a loaf, and placed in a buttered loaf pan.

2 lb loaf dusted, scored, and rising
2 hours later--

It's ready for the oven
This smells so good.

1 hour @ 375 F
Waiting for it to cool was not easy.

Cooling
But it was worth it.

Still warm (and very tasty)

Mmmmm, your bread looks delish. I've been tempted to buy a bread machine and make my own bread, but I never got around to it.
