Good morning!
Well to BO his job is destroying the American way of life! There is no doubt he’ll apply himself to that end.
Fleury will be with the Pens. GOOD NEWS...they may still get another Stanley Cup.
I’m having problems with my bread baking. Not sure what I’m doing wrong. I’ve been mixing the dough in the machine then baking it in a pan. That way it makes nice slices for the toaster.
Recently though even letting the dough rest it doesn’t double in size and doesn’t rise as much during baking. Still tastes good but something is wrong.
We buy BIG blocks of yeast and store it in sealed jars but maybe it;s going bad before I use it. Seems to test OK but the bread just doesn’t rise.
I use the yeast from Sam’s Club - dry yeast. I almost always have good results with my bread. I bake mine in the bread machine though. Sometimes it isn’t quite as high. I’m thinking I don’t measure out the liquid as accurately. My ‘go to’ bread is a honey buttermilk white bread. I’m not making it for two weeks. Knees are better. We’ll see if they get bad again. I don’t use bread flour. I use regular flour and add a TBLS vital wheat gluten for each cup. That could be my problem.
