Directions
Julia Child’s White Bread,,This is the 2nd time iI have made this. It is a terrific bread. However, it cane out extremely wet ysing 6-1/2 cuos of fkour as ststed on the recipe I found. Now I am seeing this recioe for 7 cups. I’ll try the 7 cups next time. Any other suggestions?,Has anyone tried halving the recipe and using a bread machine to mix this recipe? I’m going to give it a whirl anyway, but wondering if there should be any tweaks for future reference.
