Bread / Five Seed Bread Help!
« on: February 23, 2011, 10:15:44 am »
Help!
I have made the Five Seed bread several times, followed the recipe to the letter - even went out and got myself a 20x20cm tin. The problem is with the rising.
I have given it 20-25 mins as the recipe said, and it does not rise very far. So, several times I have allowed it to rise for 1hr+ and still it does not rise very far. The recipe says it should reach the top of the tin, but in my experience, even half way up the tin is hard to achieve!
I live in central QLD, so it is always warm in my kitchen, so I don't think that is the issue...Any ideas? I would like to experience the 'light' bread the EDCB tells me it should be, instead of the flat, dense loaf I have had several times!
