I tried making bread for the first time.

I always say homemade bread is always better than store bought because it's hot and fresh, so it doesn't have to be perfect. Thanks for proving me wrong.

NewWayUa@reddit

That's why I buy perfect hot and fresh bread at the bakery near.

justcougit@reddit

Well, I make my own. But I don't suck at it that bad 😭😂

It looks like that bread they found in Pompeii.

That yeast was deaddead. Like even over proofed dough would have too big of bubbles. This is simply bo yeast. Wait, you remembered the yeast, right?

Looks like everything was adequately prepared for ‘The Passover’ :)

Honestly thought at first glance this was a block of high quality hashish

Looks a little dense for my taste. I would cut it in the thinnest possible slices, toast it on a pan, and top it with a lot of cream cheese.

solution: start your dough by placing your yeast in water and sugar. Wait for it to start making bubbles to ensure the yeast is alive. Combine with the recipe's wet ingredient and after combining and kneading the dough, place it somewhere warm for a bit to rise and ferment. It will make a fluffy dough with proper rising

I just did another try placing my yeast in water and sugar and it already looks much better! It seems I’ve made a mistake with my yeast the first time, I’ll try the rest of the tips next time I’ll be making bread, thanks!

Just another general piece of advice: never go by times in bread recipes, they're only a guideline. Pay attention to volume instead.

glad to hear it worked this time

JohannesVanDerWhales@reddit

Reminds me of a recent bluesky post where someone said they left out the yeast and wondered why it turned out bad.

Congrats on your dwarf bread

drcmr@reddit

Did you cook it or leave it on the lawn?

Looks pretty wet, but it was good practice.

This is what i imagine would be the kind of bread that Jesus ate

[-]

deldulin@reddit

It certainly looks like a first attempt. Now to learn and improve!

Mexicali76@reddit

Was this after you ate it?

[-]

maayani_@reddit (OP)

Tbh I’m afraid to touch it.

If this is normal yeast bread you just needed to let it rest a little longer in between stretch and folds.

[-]

Oldgamer1807@reddit

It's like the texture of a cosmic brownie.

[-]

journeyman369@reddit

Looks like bread from the year 2250 BC

Mine turned out like this, too, the first time after moving from sea level to high altitude. I was kind of expecting it, and made adjustments on future loaves.
