    For future reference, check your public library for a book called Beard on Bread, by James Beard. There's a good chapter in there on common bread-baking problems. Meantime:

    • It's just possible that you over-kneaded the bread, especially if you're using a big ol' Harley Davidson Kitchenaid mixer.
    • You might have too much flour. Ideal proportions are about 1 cup liquid to 3 cups flour.
    • If there's a lot of whole-grain flour in it, add either white flour or egg.
    • Check the expiration date on the yeast.

    Some web pages for you:

    Mmmmm, fresh bread. I haven't made that in so long. It's not silly, making bread is a great art. Next time, make enough to share. I would love to try some of yours.

    I agree.. bread can be an art..

    I can make it in my bread oven but to make it like my grandmother used to? mine never comes out light... always heavy and not great!

    and Baklava, I've never even tried.. but I'd love to have some!
