Just like from the bakery! The crust is crispy and the crumb is soft. Bravo for this extraordinary recipe.
Easy to prepare and so delicious! Even my picky kids went for seconds. This bread has become a staple in our home.
Excellent recipe. I followed the instructions to the letter and the result was perfect. My wife loved it. The best homemade bread I've made.
Made this last weekend and my family loved it! The bread came out perfectly golden with a beautiful crust. Will definitely be making this again.
This recipe is a keeper. The Baker's Notes really helped me understand the technique. My new favourite bread to bake on weekends.
