Recipe Tips

  • Make sure the water you use to make the dough is warm, but not too hot. If it is too hot, it will kill the yeast and the dough will not rise.
  • If you don't have a warm place to leave the dough to rise, you can heat your oven to its lowest setting, turn it off, and leave the dough inside with the door slightly ajar.
  • When shaping the dough into loaves, be gentle so as not to knock out all the air you worked so hard to incorporate during the first rise.
