I bought the A Song of Ice and Fire cookbook years ago and I love it, but I’m having issues with a particular recipe: the Crusty White Bread recipe from “The Wall” section of the book. I’ve made it a few times over the years and have followed the instructions exactly, but every time the dough is too sticky, so I have to add more flour. And no matter what I do, the bread never turns out light and airy inside like the picture, it’s always really dense. I bake it at 450 F for 30 minutes with a pan of water underneath it as instructed, but when I take it out of the oven and knock on the loaves, it never sounds hollow, always solid. The bread tastes good, but it’s always so dense. Doesn’t seem to matter how much honey or flour or water I use or how long I let it rise or what time of year or I make it or how fresh the yeast is. What can I do to fix it?
I have not made this bread yet but I was a professional baker before retirement. I’m going to try it and see how it turns out. Do you want to know the outcome?
Can baby spinach leaves be used in place of arugala in the summer greens salad. It’s hard to get arugala around where I am, even though I live in a fairly good sized city.
