Thanks for the info on the tag - I installed the steempress plugin on my website today and messed it up completely!

I don't bake bread with yeast a lot but in my experience this makes a couple of really nice loafs of sandwich bread - nice crumb, stays nice and fresh for several days, not yeasty tasting. I think its because of how I proof the yeast in some flour and water first, that extra step really makes a difference. The recipe I have shared here is my own - I learned the great technique for cutting and braiding the loaf from the Jamie Oliver recipe I linked to.
