How we have started making our own food

A year ago I was eating store bought bread. Now I pretty much only eat bread that we've made. And it's so much better! Its easy to make by hand but we have started using a Bread Man machine that we got second hand and we pour all the ingredients in and 3 hours later we have bread! Here are 5 things that we used to buy but now we make...

1. Bread
I just mentioned this one. We have made white bread, pandebono and tortillas but we plan on making english muffins very soon. You can make bagels, sourdough bread (you need a sourdough starter to make this), baguettes, croissant, any carb your heart desires. This can be something that you do when you wake up and start the rising process and then go to work. Or you can make a faster bread and make it when you get home.




2. Whipped Cream
All I have to do is whip cream. It's in the title. If you think that Reddi whip is to sweet this will be perfect for you! You take some heavy cream and take a whisk and whisk a bunch or you can do it in a mixer. You can do fun flavors like lemon, mint, strawberry, etc!


3. Jam
We recently made strawberry jam! It is so good! All you need is a container of strawberries (they have them at the grocery store) some sugar and thats it! Since we didn't have pectin and the recipe we used


4. Pasta
