Title: If you thought mushrooms in chili was bad.
Post by: Skul on November 16, 2013, 02:49:34 PM
I was wandering around the swamp, looking for any new sign of Walrus-face.
Didn't find the lad anywhere.
I did find this, and just couldn't help myself.  :rotf:

Stoopid bread question... All DUmpmonkey questions are "stoopid".
   
Finding low-carb bread without a long list of ingredients I can't pronounce is getting harder at any price, so I'm back to baking my own, with things like cauliflower in it to bulk it up without adding carbs. If I get back into it, there's things like diet cinnamon buns to experiment with...  O. M. G. :puke:

So, found neat bread machine on sale (I know, I know, but tiny kitchen, little free time and aversion to mess...) and the first loaf stunk. Really, it smelled like something fermented in there.

Why? All fresh ingredients and nothing really weird. Just straight whole wheat bread by the book. Except for one small change, right?

I suspect it was because I mistakenly used rapid rise yeast in the whole wheat cycle and there really was fermentation during the second rise and long rest. Does that make sense? No, you're stupid.
Even Betty Crocker would kill this cretin.
Then he doubles down.

3. Tasted terrible. It was a first test loaf so didn't use...

anything extra except some strawberry syrup
that later seemed suspect. That may have been the problem. O. M. G.  :lmao:

I'll try again tonite-- plain white bread with the rapid rise yeast on rapid rise program. Then one with regular yeast. If they are OK, I'll start playing around. 

Best comment is by corporal point-and-shoot.

2. If it smelled bad it probably means you fermented something other than yeast
Ya think?

One last barf worthy comment.

5. Google "cloud bread"

Basically constructed of cream cheese and egg whites--very low carb and no bread machine involved.
Oh hell no.  :bird:

Gross.  :puke:


These people are just as willing to play around with our health care system as they are a loaf of bread. 

The results are the same for both.

The bacteria which causes spoilage will ferment under the same conditions as yeast, so you have to make sure everything is very clean including the inside of your bread machine.

Only a primitive would need to be admonished about keeping a clean kitchen.

I've got five bucks that says whatever was living under the baking primitive's fingernails is what fermented.
