Have been the proud owner of a "promotion" breadmaker from Netto for more than a week now and it does look very nice, sitting on the work-top. Don't think I've just been admiring it, however; I have baked 3 loaves in it.  Only problem is, the bread looks very nice in the tin, until I come to try and prise it out, and prise it out and prise it out..................... Is it possible to get the bread out in less than the time it would have taken me to drive down to our village boulangerie and return with bread for breakfast? If you know the secret, PLEASE share it with me!  It's not much fun eating bread that's been hacked about by me trying to squeeze it and cut it up whilst it's still inside the tin!

After you remove the bowl out of the machine, you must let the bread rest a few minutes. Then tip the bowl upside down. If the bread doesn't pop out, give the bowl a little shake, still upside down, and that should do it. Clair The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a Heaven of Hell, a Hell of Heaven.

Thanks for the laugh, guys.  RH, "a very firm tap" hasn't actually achieved my objective.  In fact, a karate chop or two has only hurt my hand and the damned loaf is still firmly in its tin. Could always use the mangled bits for breadcrumbs, I suppose.   "You are the pancake queen, young and sweet, only seventeen" By Clair with apologies to ABBA    Report
