breads
All sorts of bread made at the bakery that can be also made at home.
Roti done right
Roti is a delicious bread that complementes your Indian cuisine. Roti is a flat bread. It is unleavened and not baked, but cooked on a tava, or griddle, with oil. Want to make your own righteous roti? That is as easy as one, two, three. OK, maybe it will take a half-dozen or so steps. But they're all simple.
Paratha, flat bread from India
Paratha is one of the delicious Indian flat breads. The difference with other types of breads comes because paratha is brushed with melted butter or ghee and folded over then cooked on the skillet with more butter resulting in flaky, delicate bread.
Naan bread
Naan is best served warm. It can be kept covered by a large bowl for a few minutes after baking, but avoid keeping it there too long, since this leads to excess moisture buildup and softening. If you want to make your own naan follow this one delicious recipe.
Oat cakes
Make oat cakes in the best Scottish tradition. They are lovely with quince jelly and cheese.
Things you can make with a bread maker
Owning a bread machine can be a lifesaver when you have ten errands to run, a house to clean, and a baby to take care of all while getting dinner ready. Just toss in the ingredients, set the timer and forget about it until you hear the ding.
Injera, flat bread from Ethiopia
Injera bread is made from three simple ingredients: teff flour, water, and salt. If you are familiar with making crepes or pancakes, you should not have any trouble to prepare it. You can use a mixture of teff flour and whole wheat or all purpose flour. Injera is usually served with hot food on top. Wrap the injera around the food, chop it off, and eat it.
