I got a ton of bread recipes for an automatic bread making machine. Started years ago with the first one on the market a DAK. Made a round 1 lb loaf. Move on to regular shaped loaf in a modern machine. Stopped making and gave away the machine when wife decided to cut carbs. If any one still using one or want to use recipes manually. Be happy to post. Have some real weird ones from the DAK days. Ever hear of Rubein bread? All ingredients from a Rubein sandwich.

PS Wife now has me buy store bought breads. They are cristier and more expensive.

I love Rubein sandwiches...saurkraut...has to be the Czech in me....I would love that recipe. A friend recently gave me a bread machine...I haven't tried anything yet, tho I did buy one of those packaged bread mixes that week.....to see how the machine works.

Jan another note about bread machines I found out that King Arthur flour company makes these additives for bread making. You can get deli rye, pumpernickel and many others. You just substitute some half cup or so per instructions on bag for your flour. Used my white bread recipe. Check out their web page online.

Jan here is another one I use to play with. I did discover using the bread machine it was sometime necessary to watch the mixing and if it looked too wet add flour or too dry add water. Just like when you hand mix to make up for local humidity.
This makes good toast.
English Muffin Bread (For Bread Machines)

breads, breadmaker

1 1/4 cup water
2 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
3 cup bread flour
3 tablespoon nonfat dry milk
2 teaspoon yeast

Note: Ingredients are for Large Loaf (about 1.5 lbs), adjust # of
servings for Medium or Small loaf.
Put all ingredients in machine in the order suggested by your
machine's manufacturer and fire that bad boy up on the regular bread
cycle. The top of the loaf should come out sunken, this is normal.
The texture and taste is just like English Muffins, this is GREAT for
toasting!

Yield: 6 servings

My grandparents owned and ran a bakery for years and years. When I was little, I used to visit the bakery and watch my Grandad bake Breads, Cookies and Cakes... Wedding Cakes.. My grandmother would decorate and ice the cakes. She was the best wedding cake decorator in town. She would always have me build and fold the cake boxes for her. All day job ;-) My Grandad, on the other hand could do no wrong with his breads. When they died, somehow all of those recipes dissappeard. I have been chasing them ever since, but no family members know where they went.. Long Story short, My Grandad made an awesome Salt Rising Bread recipe, that I always loved to eat. No one makes that any more and it is so good. Went on the internet one time and found a couple of recipes that seem to come close to what he would have done. Below is the recipe I feel it comes closest to Grandad's recipe. Caution... It is a long process, so when you decide to attempt this.. you are going to plan for the time involved. OK, here we go...
