I made this for our weekly bread last week, but neglected to post my review. I did not use a bread machine (I own one) but do not like using it. Instead I made this by using my KitchenAid and hand kneading it. I loved the texture, flavor and crust on this bread. I did have to use a bit more flour than called for by doing this w/o the Bread machine, but feel it turned out as spectacular as if I had. Thank You for the lovely bread recipe. Just wanna update this as I make this bread often, as above, and the texture and flavor are always perfect...Thank you again for a great recipe.
