Cobb Loaf - With photo

Katie gave me a special bread slasher, I think perhaps I didn't go deep enough with it then Wonder.

I made this Cobb loaf this afternoon, it ended up with three rises, cooked up beautifully, nice loaf.

This is a great recipe and your loaf looks lovely Judy. I have tried to buy a bread slasher but have never had any luck. I even bought some razor blades but I don't seem to have much success with it either.

I've tried a slasher that I got from a bread supply shop and a razor blade with not much luck.  Then on another occasion I tried my just sharpened chef's knife and it worked really well.

why not slash  after shaping

[judydawn]

I did Uni, we just don't seem to have the touch like you babe.  Maybe we should be more brutal with our slashing.

grab a pair of scissor and cut through it right down to the bottom, that should teach it a lesson

[judydawn]

And probably deflate it beyond repair Uni LOL.

when I made the vegemite & cheese scroll the other night I cut almost down to the bottom (about 1.5cm) and it bounced back and fluffed out nicely.

JD cutting right  through it makes it easier to only have 1/2 a roll  no need to cut, just pull it

[judydawn]

Well, I'll be!  That worked then Uni    Thanks.
