Directions
Kittencal’s Old Fashioned White Bread, This recipe goes back years and I still make it today, the dough is a pleasure to work with and always produces a soft high delicious loaf of bread — sometimes it’s not the ingredients but the method used, I have been baking bread for long enough to know all the secrets, follow the directions and I think you will be very pleased with this bread! — Canadian members use all purpose white flour, for U.S. members use white bread flour — I suggest to make this with a heavy-duty stand mixer but if you do not have one this can be made by hand — just a tip, to create a perfect rising temperature for yeast bread/buns, just before you start making the recipe turn your stove on to 200 degrees F and leave it on for a couple of minutes then turn it off, you can rise your dough in the oven, works every time, but don’t forget to turn the oven off or you will have to rise it at room temperature lol! — this dough can be used for many different recipes, it makes a wonderful cinnamon-raisin swirl bread — for pan greasing see my recipe#78579, This is the best white bread recipe, simple and the result is amazing. Thank you so much. Perfect with salted butter!, Great bread, soft and light. Excellent recipe, your suggestions are most helpful :-
