I can turn out a perfectly palatable loaf of bread with water flour and yeast. i
do throw in a shot of olive oil normally because that is the way my lord likes
it, and i may put in other goodies like eggs, honey, sesame seeds, flax seed or
leftover smashed potatos. I have yet to turn out an inedible loaf of bread
except for the time the thermostat on my old oven went and it went to 500 #fahr
without me realizing it and ending up with a nice batch of charcoal.
