Making Fresh Bread

In Science we are learning about Micro-Organisms and that yeast is a micro-organism.  Today we made bread.  Firstly, we learned a bit about wheat and all the parts of the grain that you need to make different breads.  Mr Lindsay brought in all the ingredients and his bread maker so that we could go ahead with an experiment.  We started off with some students adding all the ingredients.  Then for an exact total of two hours and fifty minutes the bread slowly cooked.  When you walked into the classroom the smell of bread was extremely strong.  Mr Lindsay cut the bread into seven slices (one for each table) and then divided each slice into quarters.  When I first touched my piece it didn’t feel the same as the bread I normally eat.  It felt a lot more soft and very warm.  The taste of the bread was pretty normal but a lot nicer fresh.  The crust was a bit crunchy but still yummy.  I was lucky enough to get two pieces as Haydn is gluten-intolerant.  Overall, I really enjoyed the process of making bread and eating it!
