Who doesn’t enjoy having fresh-out-of-the-oven pastry, especially the savory kind?
We all do, but baking bread from scratch can be intimidating. You don’t know if your kneading techniques are right or if the yeast is working properly. That’s why many people choose to avoid the oven and stick to the safe stove-top recipe, leaving pastries to experts.
However, it doesn’t have to be that way. Although baking is sometimes tricky, it’s not impossible to master. All you need to do is start small and gain experience as you go.
Having said that, this epic, garlicy pull-apart bread recipe is a must-try, and it’s not hard at all. So, prepare yourself for this surprising explosion of flavors.
