These days I don't use my bread-making machine. I don't even use the oven when I make bread, LOL.

Friends have been curious how I steam bread. Well, it's really easy. First you need a steamer. See this blog for a picture of my steamer. Then you make the bread like how you would ordinarily but instead of baking it in the oven, you place it in the steamer. Sometimes when I'm in a hurry, I don't wait for the second rise. Usually I make two loaves, so I steam the bread one after the other. About 40 minutes each. Bread out of the steamer is really wonderful with butter! Its texture is slightly different but delicious. 3 day-old steamed bread tastes terrific toasted too.

I don't only steam regular bread. I steam my banana bread as well as my blueberry bread. Try it! You might like its moistness!
