It is a question of good flour and slow fermentation. In the old days we used to leave the dough to ferment for at least three or four hours, and it wasn't necessary to put chemicals into the dough. Today the farmers get much bigger crops from the same piece of ground, but the wheat has lost its taste. And to make it look nice and white — comme un cadavre — the millers grind it up fine and sift it, so you are left with very little except starch.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "John Hillaby" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/john-hillaby/what-makes-good-bread-it-is-a-question-of-good-flour-and-slow/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/72a/john-hillaby-41949_bread_what-makes-good-bread-it-is-a-question-o_996177.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/72a/john-hillaby-41949_bread_what-makes-good-bread-it-is-a-question-o_996177.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/72a/john-hillaby-41949_bread_what-makes-good-bread-it-is-a-question-o_996177.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“What makes good bread?

It took all her strength to mix four loaves at once, flour up to her elbows, tendrils of hair escaping from her bun, but it hardly made sense to do less. Her good bread disappeared as fast as she made it. Why, her family could hammer away a whole loaf in one sitting. Mamá smiled, then crossed herself against the sin of pride. Modesta was always saying, “That’s too much work! Why not just buy a loaf at the store?” Those sickly soft things they call bread? Mamá snorted as she slapped her dough. It was a sin to call such cotton bread! Her bread could stand up to thick bacon sandwiches and homemade blackberry jam. Hers melted in your mouth like cake. Indeed, after supper Father often buttered a big slice for dessert. At the thought of her husband, Mamá crossed herself again, this time not for pride, but for love. Everything she did was done for him. She meant to work for God, to make her life a prayer, but since the first time she saw Manuel, long before they were married, his was the face she pictured as she wiped her brow, bent her back to the task at hand.

It leaves you filled with peace, and the house filled with one of the world's sweetest smells. But it takes a lot of time. If you can find that, the rest is easy.
