Allow flour to come to room temperature before using. Note: Flours, while visibly similar, can be very different in how they are ground, milled, stored, etc. You may have to experiment with different brands of flour to help you make the perfect loaf. See RECIPE TIPS to assist with these experiments.
CLIMATE CHANGES & BAKING • In high-altitude areas (over 3,000 feet) dough tends to rise faster, as there is less air pressure. Therefore, less yeast is necessary. • In dry climates, flour is drier and requires slightly more liquid. • In humid climates, flour is wetter and will absorb less liquid, so less liquid is required.
