I was recently listening to one of my fave podcasts (@cookerybythebook ) and the host, Suzy, was interviewing a savvy cookbook author about living a more frugal life and one of the things her guest said was, NOT to start trying to learn to make bread in a time of flour shortages! I have to agree... to a point...! Bread making is an ART and itโs often challenging and mistakes happen! For instance, I recently tried my hand at making steamed meat buns and it was an utter disaster... I had to throw 2 batches away... ๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ A hugely wasteful endeavor during a time when flour is sometimes hard to come by! ๐ญ๐ฑ๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ That being said, there are loads of quick and easy breads that are truly fool proof! Soda breads like this Herby Beer Bread Mix and my other Spicy Mexican Beer Bread Mix are both super easy to make and require only a single 12 oz beer to create that satisfying and succulent smell of yeasty warm goodness coming from your oven! They are a fast and easy crowd pleaser and truly make you feel like a capable and fancy baker, even if you are not! So perhaps leave the sourdoughs until this pandemics thing is over... try out a soda bread or one of my mixes! Itโs perfect as a snack with a slather of butter or is the perfect accompaniment to a bbq meal! Keep your chins up and stay safe and be kind! . . . #kellebjammin #kellebbakin #myjam #kellebkitchen #livelovelubbock #lubbockintheloop #lubbock #bread #jamgood #jamon #jamtastic #jam #makersgonnamake #artisanal #artisan #handmade #homemade #smallbatch #nomnom #artisanjam #breadmix #bakersofinstagram #beerbread #breadmix #sodabread #lubbocktexas #shoplocal #shopsmall #shoplocallbk #lubbockeats #beer https://www.instagram.com/p/B_DkxAoAh8f/?igshid=1e7nih75aacny
