How long would I knead this dough and at what temperature and how long would it bake? Sound like a good one to me. grammaberr

In the directions for Buttermilk bread, do you think you meant to type "Select basic bread setting" instead of basil bread setting? Might be a novice out there that can't make the recipe because they don't have this unusual setting.
