"It was a cold wintry day when I brought my children to live in rural West Virginia. The farmhouse was one hundred years old, there was already snow on the ground, and the heat was sparse-—as was the insulation. The floors weren’t even, either. My then-twelve-year-old son walked in the door and said, “You’ve brought us to this slanted little house to die." Keep reading our story....

I remember watching my grandmother make bread and she never worried about the dough being sticky..so I don't either. And she never measured the ingredients... after so many years I guess she had a goo... - Miss Judy on Bread 911!
I also don't worry about it being sticky. I use my KA mixer with hook for the one loaf version. Water first, yeast, stir a little, sugar, salt. At this point, if I want to add herbs or garlic, I ad... - VikingMiss on Bread 911!
Oops. One more thing: don't double Suzanne's two-loaf recipe. That's too much dough for your mixer to handle at once. The two-loaf recipe is already "doubled" for you.... - UlrikeDG on Bread 911!

I make bread with my stand mixer all the time (at least once every 2-3 days). Do you have a scale? That's actually the easiest way to get the right ratio of flour to water. It's clear that your dough ... - Faith on Bread 911!
