However, every mixer is different. The most important is the dough shouldn't be sticky. I knead the ingredients at low speed until everything come together. Then turn to medium speed. Once everything combine, use the speed 3to do the final kneeding until smooth and elastic.

Could it be the kneading time in the mixer is not enough. How long do you knead in the mixer? I will try again one more time and let you know of the outcome.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3789203549430647546.post-31929841692277242982008-12-06T14:45:00.000+08:002008-12-06T14:45:00.000+08:00Hi Nicole,Don't be upset, I failed many times for ...Hi Nicole,<BR/>Don't be upset, I failed many times for this recipe too! But finally, I realized that was my mistake that didn't knead until the dough become smooth and elastic. I'm not sure how you manage the dough. There are many reason could cause the dough not rise. May be room temperature was too cold or hot, expired yeast, wrong measurement of ingredients, over proofing, oven temperature not right etc. The dough should be smooth and elastic consistency rather than a sticky dough. Please try again. Look forward to hear from you.Kitchen Cornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11609561513469940196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3789203549430647546.post-89842423599640880412008-12-06T13:16:00.000+08:002008-12-06T13:16:00.000+08:00Hi KC,I have tried this recipe twice but the end r...Hi KC,<BR/>I have tried this recipe twice but the end result wasn't satisfactory. The dough did not rise very well during the final proving before baking. It rose to only about half of the tin instead of the 80% as mentioned in the recipe.<BR/><BR/>NicoleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3789203549430647546.post-89104916731031669192008-12-05T11:21:00.000+08:002008-12-05T11:21:00.000+08:00Hi HHB,I love the soft texture of the bread too!

There're many reason cause the dough cannot rise up for example my previous attempt which I didn't give it enough of kneading. The dough should be smooth and elastic.Kitchen Cornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11609561513469940196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3789203549430647546.post-57502561693308153082008-12-04T13:21:00.000+08:002008-12-04T13:21:00.000+08:00Hi KC,I was wondering did you use Instant Yeast fo...Hi KC,<BR/>I was wondering did you use Instant Yeast for this bread recipe? It rises so nicely. For some occasions, my bread doesn't rise so well, I suspect it's the yeast!. :-P Thx!Honey Bee Sweetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07611185580466977913noreply@blogger.com
