The one that had belonged to my mom, that my sister gave to me a while back.
Finally put it to use yesterday, with my first ever homemade bread (well, w/o a bread machine)
It's honey-wheat/oat bread.

It was an easy recipe, but I think it could stand a touch more salt. I chose the recipe mostly because I had a bag of whole wheat flour that was languishing in the larder.

(39,171 posts)As for the salt I mentioned.... try it their way first. I tend to be a bit of a salt-a-holic.

(450 posts)Between you and the stand mixer! I love mine and use it often. I dare say, it’s changed my cooking for the better and more fun

And it saved about 20 minutes of kneading.
