Hi,
I am looking for a bread slicing guide to purchase in the UK. I have recently purchased a bread maker and I am currently using an electric knife to cut the bread (not very straight). Can anyone recommend a bread slicing guide? thanks |

I am not sure what manufacturers are available in the UK, but I bought
for about 50 Canadian dollars a domestic meat slicing machine. In my machine the gauge at its wides point is perfect for bread. When people see my sliced bread, they think it is commercial bread particuarly because of the perfect slicing. |

King Arthur just came out with a new Baker's catalogue, and they have a
slicing board in it, 23.95 USD, and it is 9 3/4 inches long, 6" wide, and 7 1/2 inches tall. It's called the Bread Slicing Guide. http://www.bakerscatalogue.com gw |

Interesting question?
How much effort does it take to learn to cut bread (straight) with a normal (non electric) knife. If your bread is (firm) it'll probably be less than a dozen bread before you skill is proficient. George ladychatterleyslover.grabafreebie.com/index.htm |

George ladychatterleyslover.grabafreebie.com/index.htm I'm not the person who asked the question; but, as one who has sliced a few hundred loaves, I am interested in a good guide because I don't have the hand-eye coordination to do it as well as I'd like. Remember, we aren't all the same; some of us have areas in need of help; for example, you appear to be lacking in tact and empathy but can slice bread like a pro. === Well said sir ===== |
