When you crack that loaf and steam comes out.

Adding anything at that moment would ruin the bread.

Carbs aren’t evil but if you don’t want to be overweight you have to eat carbs in moderation. It’s not that hard gang.

I got my first bread machine second-hand on eBay, for a fraction of the price of a new one. When that gave up the ghost I found a replacement machine even cheaper in a charity shop. It's the sort of thing people buy or are given, and it ends up shoved in a cupboard. They are sold on cheaply, often hardly used.

I make a simple wholemeal loaf every week: bread flour, yeast, a little fat (oil or butter), a little salt. I leave it to bake overnight and wake to a wonderful smell. It's better bread than supermarket stuff and works out cheaper, even using premium flours. I'm too lazy to go through all the kneading, proving etc; having a machine do it for me is perfect.

you're not gonna eat a spoonful of jelly

Speak for yourself mangohead

Down with the tyranny of delicious sweet things being spread on salty bread which ruins their taste. I eat jams and Nutella like they're a dessert.

Bread made feeding people cheap. That isn't civilization; that's dominator culture. It's slavery with extra steps. You've all been eating peasant food. Break the cycle.

Bread made feeding people cheap.

Bread is a luxury, if feeding people cheap was the only concern, porridge would be a better use of grains than bread. Porridge predominated when peasant culture predominated; bread becomes common with civilization's connections, innovations, and specialization.

I'll eat a slice for you friend

[sbv@sh.itjust.works]

Why waste my time when I can slather it with something delicious?

[sbv@sh.itjust.works]

Better bread is bested by buttered bread.

[sbv@sh.itjust.works]

Don't be trapped by convention. Eat the best part by itself.

[sbv@sh.itjust.works]

You’re not going to sit and eat a spoonful of jelly like a fucking goblin

Yes I fucking will. I mean it. I do. It's delicious.

It's okay to be wrong

[eldritchfeminity@lemmy.blahaj.zone]

God gave us grain but not bread so that we, too, could indulge in the joy of creation.

[yonder@sh.itjust.works]

Nah, butter makes that bread even better, especially when it's fresh.

[djmeas@lemm.ee]

Personally I just have keto bread with like 1 net carb. Love bread and love the fiber.

[dharmacurious@slrpnk.net]

Absolutely! You must always try the bread unbuttered first. Then add the butter for the second bite, but that first bite of freshly baked, still steaming bread must be plain to truly experience it's splendor.

Fun fact, while the Eucharist/communion is given as a special ceremony in most denominations, originally the eating of bread at any time was considered a holy moment.

"For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come." In the king James, but many other translations phrase it as "whenever" or "every time" instead of "as often"

Still today, (Christian) Quakers take it this way. You are taking the Eucharist whenever you eat bread (or just eat) or drink wine (or just drink). There is also a belief that every bath is a baptism, and that the sacraments are daily lived experiences.

So, yeah, bread is life, and is holy, and is all things that are good, and yes, I am a diabetic, and I'll cut out soda, and ice cream, and candy, and even (God help me) potatoes if I have to... But you'll get my bread over my cold, dead, amputated foot.
