Beautiful Bread . . . Works For Me Wednesday
I've had so much fun baking bread lately with my sourdough starter, but I was frustrated. Why wasn't my bread *pretty* like at Panera or the bakery?
It tasted good, but it was dull looking. None of the recipes I read said anything about getting a pretty, shiny, crackly crust. What was the secret?
Then I read in a magazine....brush with beaten egg! Now, why hadn't I thought of that?
So, if you want a shiny, golden crust on your bread, just brush the top with beaten egg right before popping it in the oven!
Also, tonight I just came across this site with great ideas for glazing bread. I can't wait to try them all!
