I never put any form of fat in the bread, just flour, water salt and yeast.
Where do you find yeast in Hua Hin ? i searched but only found dry yeast in powder, not really suitable for a french style bread that il like.
I managed to smuggle in some frozen “fresh” yeast that I store in the freezer until needed. Each pack weighs 42gm and cut in half, 21gm makes two large loaves. I’ve looked in Thailand for fresh yeast but have only come across dried instant yeast, although that still works to an acceptable standard and what I used to use.

Hi DB,
Those loaves look delicious.
Could you describe exactly how you make them? as I'd love to be able to do the same.
I basically follow this method - the kneading is a bit different than most standard methods but once you get the hang of it it’s fairly straightforward. One of the biggest challenges you might find out here, is getting a good sized tin which ideally needs fairly high sides - I bought mine in the UK and smuggled them in!!
The basic bread dough can be used to make different shaped loaves or rolls - maybe I’ll post some examples later.
Take a look at this video and ask if you have any further questions.
Many thanks DB.....I'll take a look at the vid and give it a go
