Aria said:Katie E, How did you do that? Posting? MJ helped me with the photo. My computer "zips-out" during the upload. Long story. I know about the click paste, Image Shack posting....but there is a problem posting photos for me.

lyndalou said:I am in the process of trying to make this bread. I have no confidence that it'll turn out. I made the dough yesterday and it sat in my kitchen for 20 hours. I ended up with very wet dough that is now (after much sticking) in some sort of shape sitting on a towel for a couple of hours, so it will double in bulk. I have my doubts.
I used fFeischmann's yeast and all purpose flour plus the salt and water in the amounts called for.
Any suggestions? Has anyone else experienced these problems? What a mess.
lyndalou said:Well, Candocook, I wish I had read your message a lot earlier. My dough was very wet and I had one hard time getting it to form anything. I ended up with a free form loaf of bread. The crust is quite chewy (had a hard time slicing it with my bread knife) and the inside is soft. Is this the way yours turns out?
I will make this again, but will follow your good advice and use more flour.
Thanks for the information.
