it also takes A LOT of practice, and patience.

I really should try this recipe--looks soooo good! And I never have good bread in the house on Sundays.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you like this recipe. It is one of my favorite too.
ReplyDeleteSo I have a couple questions. When you say mix after the first step, do you mix it with a spoon, or whisk? or a hook? Also, when do you put the egg whites on? After they rise or before, same question for cutting the top of the bread?
