Should You Use Bread Machine Mixes In Bread Making Machines?

Marion Jones | December 6, 2009

Do I think that bread machine mixes are useful? Yes, some of them are, but the snag with all bread machine mixes is that they place limitations on your choice and do not encourage your creative talents. That may sound odd, but think about it for a while. If you depend on bread machine mixes you can only make the bread for which you can buy a bread machine mix and you can only tip the bread machine mix into the bowl and switch on the bread making machine. You are definitely not likely to alter the bread machine mix for fear that it won’t work.

What is the alternative? Well, the old-fashioned cookbook, of course! Not any old cookbook, but a specialized bread making machine recipe book. Bread making is a very simple, but rather tedious process. The ingredients are everyday, household items: water, flour, yeast, salt, sugar and oil. You already have those items in your cupboard with the possible exception of the yeast, which can be bought everywhere at low cost.

And I’m sure you already know what happens when you cook following a recipe, don’t you? You have already read the recipe through and you know you have everything in the cupboard, but when the recipe requires, let’s say, lemon peel, you open the cupboard door and see that you don’t have any lemons – but you do have orangess! Oh, well you think, oranges’ll do. You make do. You try things out. And that means that you are developing your talent and creativity. Bread making mixes will not do that for you.

A good bread making machine recipe book will have something over 100 recipes coming from a number of different countries and you will become really enthusiastic about experimenting with the various ones. Have you ever tasted Welsh bread – Bara Brith? Or English muffin bread? Jalapeno bread or banana bread? Onion bread is lovely too, but one of my all time favourites is Brazil Nut Bread – absolutely delicious.

The fact is that you may not find recipes for all these breads in one recipe book, but if you have a safe starting point, like a bread recipe cookbook, you can begin by using previously tried and tested gourmet bread recipes and gradually develop your own – oftentimes because you have to.

I once made a fantastic loaf by adding all the left-over vegetables from my Sunday lunch. It was lovely, but I could never quite reproduce it, because I did not write down the weights and measures. I could only remember that it had green beans, potatoes and sweet corn in it!

Bread machine mixes will never in a million years provide that, will they? Furthermore bread machine mixes are fairly expensive compared to the cost of five kilos of flour. I always vary the ingredients too: honey instead of sugar, milk instead of water, olive oil or butter instead of just corn oil. Rock salt instead of sea salt or visa versa. You get the picture.

Bread machine mixes are limited and limiting. A bread making machine is a great way to use up leftovers. I have often put meat and fruit in my gourmet bread. My principle is: if it’ll go in a sandwich it’ll go in the dough – like an Indian stuffed paratha or stuffed naan bread.

Stop buying bread machine mixes – they are a waste of money. Instead be creative with a bread machine recipes cookbook.

Carp Fishing Information

Mike Adams | December 2, 2009

As maddening as it can be, carp fishing is tremendous. Carp are really good at sucking in and blowing out dubious baits. It’s such an exciting moment to see the whole action in a fraction of a second as you wait with baited breath to see if the fish will accept the bait

Carp gladly feed on the surface of the water so long as you keep the pellets, biscuits, chic peas, bread, and re-hydrated corn coming and these are inexpensive baits too. Just affix the bait to the hooks: I think bread works the best. First soften the biscuits by dipping them in the water for about 2 minutes, then, put them in a sealed, plastic sandwich bag for about an hour. Given that different brands have dissimilar textures, you will just have to carry out trials to find out which sort is stiff enough to cast. Another method to hook bait is by super gluing the pellet onto the shank of the hook.

Once they get into feeding, let them feel relaxed around the bait. This gives more opportunity for the angler since they will become less choosy. This tactic can be particularly practical for zig rigs.

Once they’re feeding, cast the bait but make sure not to cast the bait directly onto the feeding carp. Cast away from the feeding spot then slowly draw the bait into position. While the bait is still hanging, keep the food coming in so as to deter the carp from leaving.

How to Set-Up Your Rig?

1 Use a hair rig to increase your chance of catching fish. Seeing that carp taste their food first, they won’t feed if they don’t like the taste. 2 You may also use a Spider Line, 50 lbs breaking strain, then use a leader that fits the situation. ? Thread the bait on the baiting needle and hook the hair loop. You may also use foam rubber dipped in a flavor in order to enhance the appeal of the bait. 3 You could also make a baiting needle by just straightening a long shank hook. Then slide the bait on the shank, and then slip the bait from the needle onto the hair. 4 Using a float is also an advantage because it adds weight in order to be able to cast farther, you will also be able to see where the bait lies. 5 Don’t forget the controller float rig. A leader can be affixed to the swivel on the mainline. It ought to be at least 3 feet in length with a 10lbs Drennan double strength. A low diameter mono will do, just as long as it floats well enough to be seen.

As experts say, it is not the bait that catches carp but the way in which the bait is introduced. Pre-bait everyday, in one spot for a few days. This encourages the carp to think that there is a repeated source of food for them and by ?word of mouth? there?ll soon be a shoal of fish around. Just be patient and it will all work out just dandy.
