I wanted to mix bread with some existing structure so chose a couple of items for the baking treatment. Firstly the Philippe Starck lemon squeezer which is very sleek and stylish, perfect to be breadified.
Dough took a while to wrap around the squeezer.
Made me hungry for lemon curd on crispy bread.
Attempt at stylish shot in style of.
I had the idea to mix plaster with the flour to see if it made a super strong bread.
Thought I would make the grip comfortable for me.
The Plaster-Bread has the nice crack/crustiness of bread but loses the brown colour. More testings of this new material are imminent.

A little olive oil or egg wash might restore that color.

Comment by Paul September 21, 2010 @ 9:00 amGoogle “salt dough” and you will find a lot of pictures and recipes for bread projects. You can even colour the dough with any water based paint.
