Real bread week, eh? Or, as I like to call it, Bread Week. Every week. 3kg of 50% wholewheat out of the fridge and ready for action.

3. Make your own coffee. It's cheaper, it's better and it's therapeutic.
4. Make your own bread. See 3, except it's not cheaper.
Depends how you measure cost, obviously

@jamesksowerby Indeed, Elizabeth David did not think much of the Chorleywood Bread Process from the start. And I think she was the first person I read who suggesting using much less yeast and much more time to get good flavour.
Thanks Aaron for your mention of my wheat and bread podcasts. You raise an interesting question about aboriginal bread in Australia. I've listened to a podcast with Bruce Pascoe and read a general piece that was awfully muddled, but I have not read his book. I have no reason not to take his claims at face value, although I also think that the freight he is adding to those claims owes as much to the general status and recent past history of aboriginal people in Australia as it does to archaeology. I will certainly be including something in the book I am working on.
