I seriously recommend Bernard Clayton's Complete Book of Bread, it's out of print but there are approximately 30 billion copies in existence so a used copy won't run you more than a few dollars. The recipes run the gamut from "beginner loaf that takes less than two hours from start to finish" (Cuban Bread is a great first loaf, and still my go-to sandwich bread) to insanely intricate breads that take days and multiple rises/kneads. FactsAreUseless posted:It's very difficult with a lot of home ovens. Eh, the best baker I know lives in an NYC shoebox with an oven from the 70s. If it can hit 400 degrees, it can bake bread.

FactsAreUseless posted:A lot of consumer ovens heat unevenly or just straight-up don't heat to the temp they say. Most Americans also don't ever buy an oven, they just use the one that came with their apartment/trailer/house. My oven doesn’t heat to the temp I set it to, but a $15 oven thermometer later and I’m able to use it for all sorts of things, including good bread. You can bake decent bread over a campfire with a bit of practice, so I don’t think “remember that I need to set it to 355F to get 325F” really counts as being very difficult. Most people don’t care to try, which is a perfectly reasonable life choice. Very few would be unable to if they wanted to, though.

lmao if you dont cook by dead reckoning. including bad math, basically: X pasta/potatos/rice Y water Z meat in various pots & pans with a bunch of random stuff from the shelves, and amazingly it always works out. Clearly not restaurant grade, but if I make an effort its not either chili-blowjob grade.

Cooking is easy. Even dumb lazy me can cook decently. Baking is a loving science and it's hard as gently caress to do well. I admire skilled bakers.

If your oven uses a knob it's probably a 2-piece. If you pull it off and see screws on the back you can calibrate the knob to match what your thermometer says. Just fire it up to 325 or whatever, pull the knob, loosen the screws, turn the face until it lines up at 325 and tighten it back up.

I need to just order the part and get around to replacing the thermostat unit.

I made some lafa bread last week to go with a bowl of hummus and it was fun, you just bake it in a skillet! Making bread without getting an oven involved is a fun first step towards more involved bakery. I also live in a place with a shoebox kitchen so getting all the flours and bowls and stuff out is always a bit of a chore, one-bowl flatbread wins every time.
