Sorry imallcool,
I dont make bread, I make bricks.
For the longest time I tried to be a good little wife and make bread. I always ended up with a two ton brick. I gave up.
Watching a cooking show, later in life, I realized I kept my whole wheat flour in the freezer [worried about it going rancid] and I wasnt letting it get to a nice room temp. It was killing the yeast. I am not a baker. It's to technical. I love to cook. I can screw it up and fix it usually. I dont need a recipe or to measure anything.
Just as well as I am like Rippie , I would eat the whole damn thing.
They should make a ladies perfume of warm bread and strawberry jam. Who needs Channel No. whatever
