I had the same problem with my loaves collapsing a little after the slash, but otherwise was very happy with the rises I got. Usually my bread doesn't rise very well, and this was the first recipe I've tried using vital wheat gluten- it made a huge difference!!! Bread is cooling now, waiting to make Reuben sandwiches for dinner tonight! Sorry, did the rumbly in my tumbly disturb you? Dinner sounds great! ~ MaryJane
