Bread Baking

I haven't been updating the blog as frequent as before since I moved into my new apartment (or to be more accurate, since Berlin trip). Now that I have the whole place by myself, I can basically do whatever I want, so I start with 'messing up' the kitchen, i.e. cooking. Well, shopping for ingredient + tools + cooking + 'evaluating the end result' can really take up a lot of time.

I used to cook when I was studying abroad & away from home, way back then but I never bake before in my life. So, first try: bread baking!

Purposedly bought an electrical hand mixer to ease the mixing process but found out at some point, human hands are more useful than machines (or perhaps I'm just not good at using the tools, lol).

Ingredient shopping was not difficult with a friend's help (else I really need Danish-English translation), followed the Danish encrypted instruction and tada...my first oven baked bread is 'born'. Slightly more 'solid' than it should, I still need to figure out what went wrong, but the bread tasted really good (especially when it's piping hot), yum yum :)

Unfortunately the bread is really too much for personal consumption. Still have some left overs which I have a good plan on how to put it to good use. More about 'how to utilize left over breads' next time ;)
