    I recently bought a breadmaker but I find the bread tastes odd. Does anyone else find this? The recipes all contain oil as well, is this normal???

    Yes most recipes will contain oil or fat of some sort, except the 'french bread' type recipes which are usually without fat and milk - it's the absence of fat in french bread that means it doesn't keep very long, which is why the french buy their bread fresh 2 or 3 times a day.

    What do you mean by 'the bread tastes odd' exactly?

    Hi everyone,

    I really, really want a bread maker too, since prices have risen in supermarkets.
    had a look on Amazon, but price is still at £59.

    Will wait until after Xmas, when prices hopefully have come back down again :-(

    It tastes of oil, perhaps I will try using butter, my recipes ask for vegetable oil!

    I have an old Panasonic, and a Morphy Richards and use olive oil in both, although the older recipe books do say use butter.
  • Mine arrived on Monday (I ordered on Friday). So far I've had a wholemeal (made with half white and half w/meal) and I have a plain white loaf in the machine as we speak. I'm making small loaves, as I'd prefer to bake it more often and have the bread as fresh as possible- there's only 2 of us in the house!
