Give your bread a name and tell us about your recipe.

Braided Bread

Would you describe yourself as a rogue baker, or do you strictly adhere to the recipe?

Adhere to the recipe, but use baking knowledge to help with techniques. I had to improvise a little because somehow I must have turned my oven off when I set the timer, and ended up having to bake it much longer once I realized my mistake!

Tell us about how you added a Wisconsin twist to your bread creation.

I made it in Wisconsin 😉 I didn’t have much time to come up with a clever Wisconsin twist, so I just made it regular. But, I will be eating some as a snack alongside some black raspberries I just picked from my garden.

How did you do?

Pleasantly satisfied.
