I made this for the first time today and used a silicone loaf pan which fit perfectly in the Varoma.  When I first saw it I thought it wasn't cooked enough, but when I felt the top was surprised to find it was firm and not gooey like it looked.

Will try the suggestion of finishing off on a pizza stone, and also like the idea of the raisin bread too.   :)

Good work Julie

It doesn't look appealing when it comes out, but toasts brilliantly.

Made the raisin version last night in my small bread loaf tin which fitted in the Varoma.  Toasted beautifully this morning.  Tastes a lot like hot cross buns.

We have it reasonably often as a raisin bread. Lovely for coffee time on our cool, wet days. Doesn't take long to do either.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

I've made the raisin version of this twice now. The second time was at DS2's request as he "LOVED" it. ;D ;D ;D

One of my favourites too.  Only complaint is - wish it was bigger :D :D :D :D

This bread sure looks sensational. Has anyone tried to do it GF? If so any results? I'll give it a go in the next few weeks when I get some time to cook again.

Here, here - I remember Doyle's had a recipe for cooking fish in the dishwasher - never tried it and it never appealed using all that water and power to cook some fish.  But this is good thinking and environmentally friendly. 

Just hope that the chlorine smell from the dishwashing powder has dissipated before I try it.
I have done a full salmon in the dishwasher some moons ago. Some of my guests remembered it and it was fantastic.

OMG cooking in the dishwasher -- what will they think of next? I am gobsmacked - with all the different types of dishwashers as well, it would be hard to know what setting to put it on.

Did you say to the fish "would one last swim be your last request?"  ;D

hehehe thanks... was having a serious blonde moment then lol

Kids enjoyed it... tasted a little strange to me but I think that's because I didn't have any bakers flour so used 150gr plain wholemeal flour and 100gr SR flour lol!  We spread hommus on it... I think it'll work out great for their lunches and toasted at breakfast.

Am making this at the moment and you can see a (Spanish) video of it being made http://www.clubcocinafacil.com/masas-bases/PAN-AL-VAPOR_2489.html .  Am a little dubious as to how it will turn out  :-\.  I gave it an extra rising and it is now proving in an enamel pudding basin.  Keeping my fingers crossed ...

Well I am very surprised, it worked out well and is brilliant for rubbing tomatoes and garlic onto when toasted.  Perhaps I should have chosen a wider receptacle for it than a pudding basin as the top of the bread was touching the Varoma lif by the end of the cooking time.  Even so, it is wonderful  ;D

I don't seem to have a tin small enough to fit in the varoma. Do you think i make them into buns or rolls and put then into the varom with a silicone sheet under them??????

If so how long would they take to steam????

Thanks
