[quote=Anonymous]Baking bread is really easy. But it's kind of like doing laundry--you have to tend it. You mix it all up and knead it and that takes 10 minutes or so. Then you need to find a warm place for it to rise and keep checking on it until it doubles. Depending on your yeast and the temperature that could be a couple of hours. Then you punch it down and form it and that takes another 10 minutes (more if you are doing rolls, less if you are doing loaves). Then it has to rise again, you have to check on it, and then you can bake it. Nothing about that is very difficult but it is a time commitment. The bread maker can do the whole thing for you, or it can make the dough and you can form it and do the final rise and bake. I made bread the original way in my younger days but now I use the breadmaker. It's not as good and the loaf is a weird shape but it actually gets done instead of my having good intentions but never making bread.[/quote]
