Home made bread problem
Is anyone else having trouble with bread dough not rising properly?
I used to be able to turn out a decent loaf but now the bread is half the height - if that - and very dense.
I've used 4 different brands of yeast including the type bakers use to no avail. I've changed the flour to the best available and I've followed the recipe meticulously.
It can only be the flour?
What do you think?
