Break bite-sized pieces off the bread and dip it in good olive oil. Mmmm!

Making bread with three blocks of butter?!!
You won't get bread... you'll just get a soggy, moppy mess of greasy, buttery goo that smells fragrant but won't look palatable!

haha. point taken. but the job of the oil is simply to make sure the tough doesn't stick to the pan right. I think butter can do the same? I'll go ask around. -

Say, if you like butter so much, av, why not try making croissants or flaky pastry?
I don't have the counter space to bake, but someday I'd love to make flaky pastry from scratch! Fold-roll, fold-roll... the best flaky pastries have about a hundred folds. Amazing!

Three blocks of butter is not equivalent to 3 tablespoonfuls of oil.

Can I ask a personal question?

I think my favourite Japanese White Bread from Bread Top (it's Bread Talk but slightly different twist to its name here) has butter in it. That's why it's so soft and fragrant... and greasier than other breads!

the bread serves a practical purpose for me, means I can get good solid breakfast bread early in the morning at home. pastries I don't feel any motivation just yet. -

I notice that you all have just been talking about food day in, day out, so my sixth sense been telling me that most of you must have put on quite some weight. Is it a 30s thing or what?

I heard a friend tell me that with breadmakers, all you do is just put the ingredients into the machine and it does everything for you, is that true? Don't you have to mix the ingredients first? I always thought you have to knead it and THEN throw the dough in...

Au Contraire... a few of us are overweight, a few of us are fighting fit, a few of us have lost weight, and a few of us are in-between.

Tell av to go make fruit bread! I love bread with raisin and cinnamon, toasted, with a slab of butter and/or jam!

no need .. if its a normal bread ..
if u add additional stuff like nuts etc .. u just have to add it at a different timing ..

Ooh, boolooey, you reminded me - Gardenia used to bake this special fruit loaf that retailed for about SGD 4.00 every Christmas season. Do they still sell that?

Really?!! How does the machine mix the ingredients then? So it has a dough hook and mixing element inside as well?

no kneading! just toss everything in the right order and let the machine to all the work. throw in the extra ingredients like mixed fruits etc when the machine beeps in the middle of the baking cycle. so easy even I can use one. -

Honestly, what is it to you if others gain or lose weight?
