Homemade bread

[Arizona_928]

trick is fresh yeast added to the water, and good proofing.

I grew up working in bakery before high school. You cannot beat bread right from the oven that's still warm...

About half wheat, half white bread flour, and SAF instant yeast (very consistent). Everyone in the house loves fresh bread, and if the loaf makes it past the second day, it's something of a miracle.

Eric, I had to reopen this thread to say a big thanks. I've started using bush/manuka honey instead of sugar and the loaves are WAY better.
