Our kitchen we bought from the former residents had quite a lot of troubles. The oven and stove were one of them. At the end of the year, my partner found a great deal, and we finally replaced the oven and stove. That means I can finally return to my favorite hobby and passion — baking bread. Bread! Bread! Bread! I’ve been baking with so much joy!
The first bake in the new oven was a New Year’s pretzel on New Year’s Eve. The shiny new oven, combined with how beautiful and delicious the pretzel turned out, reminded me how much fun bread baking is!
During the New Year holidays, I prepared sourdough starter and baked sourdough bread really after a while. But... the result was a little funny-looking 😅 I guess my skills got a bit rusty after not baking for months.
I felt relieved when I sliced it open to see a nice crumb with evenly distributed bulbs.
Since I’m doing Veganuary this month, I enjoyed it with vegan butter - in my family, it's called butter test 🧈
Haha, it was so good! I couldn’t stop smiling as my family and I finished the loaf in one day. I baked another one, but that disappeared just as quickly—no photos of the second one 😁
This year, with my new oven, I hope to breathe new life into the Bread Bakers community, which @breadcentric and I started in 2018. I know I say this every year ...
Anyways, happy bread baking, everyone! Don't forget to post your result to Bread Bakers. Cross posts is OK. I'm simply happy to see more home baked breads on Hive.

我が家のキッチンはトラブル続きでオーブンもその一つだったのですが、年末に相方がとてもよいオファーを見つけてオーブンを入れ替えました。ということで、大好きなパン作りを再開しました。パン！パン！パン！大喜びでパンを焼いています。
初焼きは大晦日に焼いた新年のプレッツェルでした。新しいピカピカのオーブンと、焼き上がりの見た目と味に大満足で、やっぱりパン作りは楽しい！
年末年始にかけてサワードウのスターターを作って、大好きなサワードウのパンも焼いてみたら・・・あれ、なんだか間抜けな焼き上がりに 😅 何ヶ月も焼いていなかったので腕が鈍っているようです。
切ってみてほっと一息、中はいい感じの大きさの気泡が分散して焼けていました。
Veganuaryに挑戦中ということでヴィーガンバターでいただきます。
あはは、おいしい・・・ニヤニヤが止まらず、家族で一日で食べ切ってしまい、もう一度焼いたのですが、またぺろっと食べ切ってしまい2つ目は写真がありません。
今年は新しいオーブンとともに、2018年に @breadcentric さんと作ったBread Bakersコミュニティを盛り上げていきたいな（と毎年言っていますね）。
それではみなさん happy bread baking ! 🍞
