I hope they won't spill out of the pans. I must say the dough is beautiful at this point! I can't wait for them to finish baking. iwokeupfathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13112224347355609756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6628445235517647413.post-36057397662516262292015-06-01T21:15:49.298-04:002015-06-01T21:15:49.298-04:00Hi Jenny...I've made this bread several times ...Hi Jenny...I've made this bread several times too. It's not a tall, tall loaf but I get what you see here. For what it's worth, I use Red Star brand instant yeast, and I do heat the milk to about 120 degrees. If you're using the 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 inch loaf pan (not 9x5 inch), I'd think you'd get what I'm getting. I'm sure you're making sure it's in a warm enough place to rise... I wish I could solve this for you but I'm no expert on yeast doughs and other than the specific brand of yeast I use, I can't think of what else could be different. I'm glad it still tastes great. I hope you keep trying and figure out the mystery!Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07439320856223502707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6628445235517647413.post-67314589619678087472015-06-01T17:22:32.690-04:002015-06-01T17:22:32.690-04:00Hi Monica.

All my ingredients are fresh, nothing has expired . I'm using the correct size pan ( I cut the recipe in half and make 1 loaf) . The yeast package says liquids over 110 degrees will kill the yeast but the recipe says heat the milk to 120 degrees? I don't know what to do. I'll keep making it but I would like the dough to rise.

I have made this several times and it pretty much looks like it does in these pics each time - the dough is wet and sticky and I do nudge it to get it around the pan but they do turn out the size you see. Are you using a larger 9x5 pan? Mine is a bit smaller and I like that it makes for a taller loaf. I hope you try again and much success to you!

Dough was stiffer than than on the episode and had to be spooned in blobs and pushed around to cover the pan properly. I think I measured properly? Bread flour may have been too old? Still tasted good... I need another attempt.brungehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09238110516525556227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6628445235517647413.post-12100699938406313082014-11-19T23:13:07.926-05:002014-11-19T23:13:07.926-05:00Hi - yes, I always use 3 cups of milk and I went b...Hi - yes, I always use 3 cups of milk and I went back to check as well when I found the recipe in the book I cited above and it said 2 1/2 cups.

I prefer whole wheat as I am trying to eat more healthy! I also saw that episode of Cook's Country and got really excited because it was so simple. I live in Canada and we can't access the recipes without paying for them. I don't have a credit card sooo. this is really annoying. I have once in a while found some of the recipes by searching Google.
