BREAD MAKING ROUND 2 . . . SUCCESS!


My first attempt at making bread was mildly successful. I think I had too much flour and didn't get the dough to rise very well. I'm blaming it on a recipe that had poor directions and was just random from the internet. Even though it turned out really dense, it had a sweet taste that was pretty good.

Round 2 came from my red and white plaid Better Homes and Gardens book (also online here). With pictures!! Things went much smoother -- yeast fermented, dough rose, bread cooked. . it's still not as light as I thought it would be, again maybe too much flour, even though I used less than it said. . . but it makes great toast!

Hoping to try for round 3 in the close future. . ..
