Has anyone tried cooking this bread while cooking soup in the varoma? Am time poor today but want soup and fresh bread.

Would never have thought to do that myself but then it was early days when I made this bread and back then I only concentrated at the job in hand not if I could cook 2 things at once Kerryn  ;D

I think the soup below would have to be a special type of soup, anything that would get too thick with boiling for 45 minutes on Varoma temp would probably burn on the bottom of the bowl but a thinnish vegetable soup might work.

Thanks JD. The soup I have planned is a thick creamy chicken and rice, so will cook it first and will keep warm in thermos ever while bread cooks. Thanks!

Varoma Bread

I made a loaf of this today. I let the dough have two rises and instead of sugar I put a good squirt of molasses and a good pinch of mixed spice. I then added sultanas in the last 30 seconds of kneading.
I'm very pleased with the final product.

Thank you. I'm surprised that it tastes more like oven baked bread. I will always do the 2 rises now.
