Cooking with Jonny69: baking bread.

I got one of these about 2 months ago, previously returned the 10" version (too unwieldy - Amazon free returns)...
really sharp especially on crusty stuff,
however for really thin slices it is not ground on both sides, just the left (right handed) so can slide a bit off towards the right,
so it is sharing duties with the previous 20+yr old kitchen devil

Don’t use postimage.

Seriously. Those pictures turned to placeholders after less than 90 minutes.

That’s why we enabled attachments and put a huge announcement at the top of all the forums.

Whoops, sorry my bad, my eyes must be going, maybe that's why I can't slice bread straight either :p

loaf.webp sliced.webp

Attachments this time.

Nothing special, made a standard white loaf as ever since the supermarkets stopped baking on site their bread is really bad :(.

No matter what knife I use I just can't slice straight, so solved that with a cheap bread slicer. Works well, little dicey with the fingers near the end of the bread though.

That’s better :-)

I always had the problem with cutting straight but it just needed a decent bread knife.


Issue appears to me unfortunately :(, I've tried three different bread knives and it always ends up the same. I can make some straight, but sooner or later I cut a wonky one and then that messes up the rest :(.

I got this Slicer, cheap enough, saves me the hassle of messing around and really quick to slice it all.

That looks decent. Sometimes I take a bloomer to my local bakers who happily slice it for me. The first time, they commented that my bread smelt nicer than theirs! :D
