Wholemeal, wholegrain, multigrain, sourdough, rye, white, high fibre white, low GI, low FODMAP, gluten free. With so many choices of bread available, how are we to know which is best for our health? Let's take a look at the science.

If you've happened to visit Pinterest in the last five years or so, you have no doubt seen a recipe or 10 for some iteration of three-ingredient, no-knead bread. These recipes are popular for good reason. Not only are these loaves extremely impressive for the amount of work they demand, they are excellent vehicles for any odds and ends you wish to rid your fridge of, from a handful of cheese to lonely fruits and vegetables.

Baking beautiful bread requires the skillful manipulation of three big, messy variables: technique, equipment, and ingredients. Poor technique accounts for most subpar results, but a sudden change in kitchen conditions or ingredient availability can throw even a seasoned baker for a loop. If your bread has started acting up for seemingly no reason, your water might just be the culprit.

The only thing sadder than opening your lunchbox to find a soggy sandwich is opening your kid's lunchbox at the end of the day to find a completely untouched one. Thankfully, you can prevent soggy, disappointing lunchbox sandwiches by making them with frozen bread.

Once upon a time, Sizzler was everywhere. While nominally a steak-and-seafood restaurant, the chain was famous for two things: its all-you-can-eat buffet and the complimentary Parmesan bread that greeted you on arrival.

Sadly, Sizzler became a victim of the casual dining wars and there are now only a handful of outlets left in Australia. But don't despair: the recipe is surprisingly easy to make at home and it only takes a few minutes. Here are the steps!

It can feel rewarding to spend hours in the kitchen making a huge meal from scratch. But if you want to carve out a little extra time for yourself, dinner rolls are the perfect corner to cut.

A good salad is all about achieving that perfect balance of flavours and textures, and nothing adds crunch quite like a crouton. You can purchase pre-made croutons pretty easily, but it you want a truly great cube of golden, crispy, just slightly chewy bread, you should make them yourself. They're also dead easy to make.

If you live on a restricted diet, either for medical reasons or to simply prevent assaulting your flatmates with all manner of, uh, odours, finding edible substitutes for staples can be difficult. Those following a FODMAP regime, for instance, tend to avoid foods containing gluten, just to be on the safe side. But if you're OK with gluten, just not the sugars, Baker's Delight might be your salvation for doughy loaf goodness.

Hello friends, and welcome back to Will It Sous Vide?, the column where I make things with my immersion circulator. This week we're once again attempting sous vide baking which, with the exception of custard-based desserts, has not exactly worked out well in the past.

I've recently started making bread for myself, and it is one of the most nerve-wracking-yet-liberating experiences I've ever had in the kitchen. There are so many terrifying points of failure, all of which are immediately forgotten when you smell the deliciousness coming from your oven. Or, in some cases, from the grill.

There are two kinds of people in this world: Those who talk about gluten like it's the devil, and those who can't roll their eyes enough to show the world how sick of gluten-free labels they are. Does gluten deserve to be so controversial? Let's dig in.

It's sad when a nice loaf of good bread goes stale, but it isn't completely tragic. There are several things you can do to transform stale bread into something so delicious, you just may start staling good bread on purpose.

In this week's roundup of health news, we'll look at whether you need to do anything differently about your choice of bread, the place your baby sleeps, and your attitude toward mosquitoes on your holiday.

Nothing is more mouthwatering than bread and pastries that are fresh out of the oven. They smell good, they look good, they taste good, they can do no wrong. But you might want to skip the corporate grocery story -- you'll find the best bread at your local bakery.

Let's say you've just made a stew, soup, or something with a layer of fat swimming on top and you want to get rid of it. You can use the ice cube trick, spoon the fat out, or refrigerate it to harden the fat and remove later. Those are good options, but now you have another: skim the top with sliced bread to sop up that grease.

Rather than letting the end of your loaf sit around and risk getting mouldy, turn it into versatile, tasty breadcrumbs. All you need to do is grab it and grate it.

Those fluffy, buttery scones aren't useless once they start to go stale. They make for fantastic croutons you can use to top salads and other dishes.

There are few things more satisfying than slicing into a big loaf of fresh, crusty bread. However, if the loaf is bigger than your bread knife, getting a uniform slice can be a slight challenge, especially when you hit that bottom crust. Luckily, there is a very easy solution: just flip the loaf on its side.

What I'm about to say may come as a shock but you should make your chicken stuffing with oven-dried, not stale, bread.
