Bread-making

• ; Conquer Fear of Bread Making; Let Machine Do the Mixing and Kneading

For too many of us, making bread belongs in the same category as public speaking and bungee jumping. The condition could be listed in a diagnostic manual of phobias: Bread-Making Failure Disorder, characterized by an extreme aversion to kneading dough and/or a fear of producing loaves with the texture of rubber, the weight of granite and the aroma of burnt fiberboard. OK, even if the comparison to bungee jumping is a leap, the dread over bread is real. In this modern age of too little time and too many tasks, working with dough has acquired an almost mysterious air, something that seems better left to bakers with an artisanal touch.

Ziplock Omelets and No-Knead Bread have been circulating on the Web and via e-mail, with loads of comments, mostly positive, accompanying them. I've tried both, and they work.
