Ahhhh wonton wrappers… I am sincerely in deep deep love with my homemade wrappers.  I always have some in my freezer.

….Ok let me explain this first sentence without looking like a retard…lol

It’s just that, this dough is amazing!!  You can bake it, fry it, steam it, boil it and every ways it makes something delicious!  From pasta to chips, passing by spring rolls and pie cups, you can create so many goodies so this is why I’m in love with my homemade wonton wrappers.  Oh and let’s not forget that they are super healthy too!  Only a few calories by wrappers makes them a wise choice in a lot of recipes (no worries, I’ll be posting a few now that this recipe is live).

Wholewheat Braided Bread…

June 15, 2012 by Ariel 6 Comments

Making bread can be intimidating but it’s really not THAT complicated as long a you follow the instructions.  Plus there is such gratification that comes from taking your homemade bread out of the oven.  Also don’t even get me started on the amazing smell that it will fill your house with.  MMmmmm just to think about it, I’m seriously melting.

I hope you’ll enjoy this basic recipe.  It’s actually one of the easiest bread recipe I’ve made so far and the result is a hit every time!  You only need a few basic ingredient that you can find anywhere and some upper body strength for the kneading.  Most bread recipes I will be posting are all to be made by hand without a bread machine like in the good old days 😉  It’s after making your first bread that you realize how comfortable we are these days to have everything so easily accessible and worry free.  I think we should all be very grateful for what we have and to live in such comfortable era…
