Ever since I got married in 2008, Baking Banter has been an essential part of my life! My husband's mother used to bake bread nearly daily when he was a boy, so I had some catching up to do! I'm happy to say that now I'm fairly comfortable making bread (even making-it-up-as-I-go-along), though I'm still learning--thanks to all of you--I'm learning much faster than I might have just using my old Joy of Cooking and Better Homes cook books. There I can find recipes, but no real instruction, such as I can find here. I made these rolls quite a while ago--maybe last year? when I was still very much a novice and trying to conquer French bread in a toaster oven (that's a funny story)-- and returned to the blog tonight to find them and try them again tomorrow...only to find that the link to the recipe is broken. It lands me over at http://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes2008/ with a picture and link to some fabulous crackers that I'm definitely going to have to try out... But is there any hope that the link and recipe can be restored? I followed the link posted in the comments above to the original olive bread article on the Modern Baking website, but the quantities simply dizzied me! SIX pounds of flour for the starter??? Oh my... I've been upgraded to a half-size oven from the toaster oven we started out our married life baking in, but we're still in a *very* small space with limited resources (and math skills!)... I'd really love the chance to make these rolls again! Thanks, again, so much, for teaching me about breads (and cookies, and cake and...and... and...)! I really appreciate your work--it's an inspiration. Sorry about that, Grace - it's a technical glitch that sometimes happens when we have two recipes posted whose names are too similar - Mr. Computer can't seem to figure out which one to link to, so he simply goes nowhere... well, "goes crackers," in this case! Thanks for letting me know - all fixed. And I hope as the years go by you can move up to a full-sized oven! Thanks for connecting here, and for your kind words- PJH
