moses bread. not really.

didn't have time to photograph this yesterday.. so here is a rare saturday post. sullivan no-knead bread is my all-time favorite, discovered by my family. start yours tonight for some amazing deliciousness tomorrow. do it with 1 1/2 tsp salt instead of 1 1/4 tsp, and try parchment paper in the dutch oven. (thanks for the string, jordan.)

also...
1. do we like the new, large photo format?
2. why are my screen grabs adding a gray line at the bottom? (see photos below)

  3. so i've had the same problem with gray lines on the pictures i post, too. what i've narrowed it down to is this: sometimes when i insert the picture and then the cursor is right after the picture, if i make a space it will give me a slight blue line under the picture which then transfers into a gray line permanently under it when i post. don't know if this is the exact same thing as what you're getting, but it sure sounds like it. so if you avoid making spaces or soft returns after the images, and making a hard return to the next line, they usually go away....hope that might help!

  4. i also sometimes get the lines if i copy and paste within the post. better to just drag the pics around.

  5. I like the larger picture format a lot, but it does take longer to load.

  9. Hi Nicole! I make this a lot and love it and do the same thing with the salt.. I was wondering though, have you ever added cheese or olives or garlic or anything? Any tricks with doing some wheat?
