  • Then add 3 3/4 flour cups of bread flour and continue mixing dough and stop when the dough doesn’t stick to the sides or bottom of the bowl when kneading. Continue kneading for about 8 minutes
  • Add additional flour (if needed) to make soft dough.
  • Or turn dough on lightly floured surface and knead for 8 to 10 minutes or more if you want airy bread.
  • Place bread dough in a greased large bowl. Covers loosely with a clean clothe and let rise in a warm, draft-free place for 1 to 2 hours or until doubled. Punch the dough down.
