This is my first yeasted bread of any kind. My dough was matching your pictures exactly until the point of turning out after first rise. They just seem too wet and sloppy. Couldn't roll into tight balls as pix show. THey are in for the cool rise now. And I will eat them no matter what. As you've said, there is no "bad" home baked bread. Any ideas where I may have gone wrong? I mixed in KA for over 10 mins. on medium speed, and could not get the dough to form around the hook. Thank you for this great awesome web site!
Lisa, I suggest you call our hotline: 802-649-3717. It's much easier to get to the bottom of this kind of issue via a back-and-forth, live conversation. I'm sure they can help you. Hope they're tasty anyway - PJH
