Nothing fancy, just a reminder that the best things in life are easy and cheap(er)!

Homemade basic white bread machine loaf, whipped butter with fresh minced garlic, dried italian seasoning and salt. Gently kissed at 350 until the butter melts into the bread, finished on a low broil until your favorite shade of brown.

I don't preheat the pot. I do cheat and use charcoal briquettes, which means I can look up how many briquettes to make the proper temperature and put those on my oven. reheat the pot. I have to cook a few minutes longer to make up for lack of pre-heat.

I never use parchment paper for baking bread. The bread needs to break at hotter temperatures where parchment paper will burn. It doesn't work even when I use my electric of an inside. Bread needs to bake at hotter temperatures than paper will burn at and I've had bad luck with it. I also find that bread releases from metal just fine, but doesn't release from parchment paper.
