I tried the basic yeast bread recipe from The Tassajara Bread Book today. It made two loaves, so I made one plain, and made one a stuffed loaf with mushrooms, olives, wilted chard, and cheese. We'll see how it turns out.

Definitely this makes too much bread, so I'll have to cut the recipe in half from now on. Except maybe the kolache recipe. Kolaches for everyone! (and everyone will have to eat one, since the recipe makes about 24 of them!)

Make full recipe, let the loaves cool *really* well, then cut the loaves into halves or quarters (depending on your bread usage), keep one chunk in the fridge or breadbox*, freeze the rest? That way, you won't have to bake again for quite a while.

*Elizabeth David, and who would know better than her? said that you can just keep the bread on the counter with an overturned ceramic bowl on top of it.
