you ever just wonder.... how did anyone ever figure out how to make bread
-F
give it a few millennia of recipe developing and you end up with stuff like croissants and panettone, the ridiculously complicated breads that take days to make
-F
this thought brought to you by us learning how absurdly complicated a process it is to make panettone
-F
@Felthry probably made some sort of porridge and forgot it on the fire
@Felthry and yeast just happens naturally if you leave it out for a while
@Felthry croissants take what now?
@Felthry like, even with a rolling pin a decent pastry dough will take a few hours tops
@noiob I've never made it from scratch but I've heard croissants are really involved to make the dough--a few days is an exaggeration though
-F
@Felthry I mean nowadays you just fold it, then throw it in a machine to get rolled, repeat that. I think for home baking the common sense is to buy premade
@noiob yeah but when the recipe was first invented you couldn't get premade!
-F
@Felthry yeah but all pastries are kinda complicated to make, it's basically the point, and why they're expensive
take this grass and grind up its seeds, mix that with water and stuff and (important!) leave it out in the open for a little while until your grass powder lump becomes a bigger grass powder lump, then cook that
