Buttermilk Bread



Two minutes into kneading I realised I was in no condition to be making bread-but I had buttermilk that needed to be used and we were running out of bread (as my family has been living on sandwiches while I've been ill). The recipe may be found HERE though I shaped it into loaves instead of rolls. You can see my version of the buttermilk cluster in THIS earlier post.

A couple notes-
I proofed the yeast in 1/4 cup of water as I can't get yeast to dissolve in a tablespoon of water.

I also needed 2 1/4 cups of buttermilk which is much more than the recipe called for.

Other than that, they turned out well and made a very nice, dense bread. Perfect for cheese sandwiches.
