Gluten Strands by 30pics4jackiesdiamond

Gluten Strands

Living yeast made the gas bubbles. This has been proving for about 24 hours, so time to knead it, plait it, prove again then bake.

Taken for Ross' theme-living. I wanted to use a shot of a dead fox, but there wasn't anything living on it.
sourdough? i really should start making bread.

Great effect! What is in it besides water and flour?

@jacqbb a bit of salt and dried yeast. This is seeded flour hence the bobblie bits
@kali66 no its just ordinary bread dough, I just prove it for a long time to get a sour tang and minimal kneading!!! I rarely buy bread these days, I find it so bland and soggy.

Thank you ladies ;)

Inspired for the living theme! How's the back?

It makes an interesting image. Making bread was disastrous for my waistline, much better to buy it. That way I don't eat much of it :)

@30pics4jackiesdiamond Tip for you if you don’t know it already: when yoy cough, tip your head back and bend your knees slightly. It takes the cough pressure off your back. Same with sneezing where possible.
