Embarking on another Clayton bread recipe
Early am I'll start on Bernard Clayton's Weissbrot mit Kümmel (German white bread) from his New Complete Book of Breads. I'll post some pics and stuff tomorrow.
Looks pretty straightforward. And good! I haven't made a bad recipe from his book yet. Knock on wood.
Another Clayton loaf is looking fantastic. This smells so good!

Out of oven. The only thing that seemed a bit off for me with his recipe is I had to add another 1/4 c milk. Recipe says it would be a batter, but i had a stiff bunch of clumps. Additional milk fixed it.

Very interesting! I've tried about a half dozen recipes from this book. How did I pass over this oddity?
I had skipped over it myself. I think because I focus more on ryes and dark breads, and this one was in the white bread chapter.
Ran across it last night. When I see "German" and "caraway" and "butter" I'm on it. Hehe...
It's being given as a condolence gift, so I will not be able to provide crumb shots. Ugh.
It kind of sounds like a HUGE hole-less bagel.
