Homemade Artisan Bread

I received an  8 1/2″ Artisan Bread Proofing Basket in exchange for a review but since I have never made bread, I thought this would be the perfect time to try making homemade Artisan Bread. The basket is the perfect size for putting the dough in while rising.  It’s made from 100% natural rattan and along with the basket, it comes with a fitted cloth liner and a brush.

Before I used the proofing basket for the first time, I conditioned it with a light layer of flour, making sure I got in all the cracks between the rattan.

I found a 5 Minute Artisan Bread recipe on Food.com and it was so easy to make. The ingredients are water, yeast, salt (which I did not use) and flour. I cut the recipe in half because it makes 4 loaves and I wanted to make sure it would turn out good and I surprised myself and it turned out great!
This is the recipe I used:

My first attempt at making homemade Artisan Bread was a success!  It doesn’t look like a blue ribbon winner but it sure tastes delicious!!

      I hadn’t either until I reviewed it! When my grandmother used to make bread when I was a little girl, she just used a bowl with a towel over it! Now I’m ready to experiment on other breads! Going to try to find grandma’s cheese bread recipe! Thanks for stopping by Savvy Age!
