How can I tell if my yeast is still working?
To see if your yeast is working, combine it with lukewarm water and a little bit of sugar. If it gets bubbly and foamy in 5-10 minutes, it’s ready to use. If not, it might be old, and you should use a new one.
Can I prepare this bread without gluten?
Yes, but you will have to use a gluten-free flour mix that works well for making bread. Doughs without gluten may require different ways of working with them and longer times to rise, so make sure to adapt accordingly.
How can I make the outer layer less hard?
To make the bread crust softer, you can brush melted butter on top or cover it with a clean, damp cloth right after baking.
Am I allowed to include additional ingredients such as seeds, nuts, or herbs?
Of course! You can include seeds, nuts, or herbs in the dough while mixing to give it more flavor and crunch.
What should I do if my dough is too wet?
If your dough is too sticky, add a bit more flour, one spoonful at a time, until it becomes smooth and stretchy.
How can I keep bread fresh when storing it?
Keep the bread in a bread box or a closed plastic bag at room temperature for a maximum of 3 days. To keep it fresh for a longer time, store it in a sealed container or freezer bag in the freezer for up to 3 months.
