Hi:
So, do you bake a lot of bread?
Well if you do, maybe you can tell me how to make my crusts a little more thin than they are.
I put the bread in an already hot oven (350) and right before I put the bread in, I place some ice cubes in a pan and put in on the bottom. Then I put the bread in (ofcourse with an egg/milk brush on top).
When I make bread with oil, butter or with milk, the crust is nice. However when I make breads without fats in it, say like, Cuban bread the crust comes out really thick and too hard. (I have never been able to make good Spanish style or Cuban bread successfuly. Have you had an experience with these matters? If so I would like to hear them.
I use a my Oster 2-lb bread machine to make the dough and I go from there.
Thanks for help.
Pete
