Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Most of our yeast breads use the electric mixer method, which calls for the dry yeast to be combined directly with the flour. But if you don't have an electric mixer, or if you live in Canada, where the available yeast doesn't work well using this method, use the hand-mixed method described on page 38.
  2. Here's how to convert recipes to this method. Change 1/4 cup of the liquid to warm water; add yeast to dissolve. Heat remaining liquid and continue as directed in the instructions on page 38.
