Anytime is the right time for a comforting slice of homemade bread. These loaves are especially nice since the crust stays so tender. This recipe is my husband Nick's favorite. He makes most of the bread at our house. -Joanne Shew Chuk, St. Benedict, Saskatchewan

I make this bread all the time. I havent bought bread (other than bagels and hot dog buns) in almost 4 months.

This has become my "toto" bread... My husband loves it.

Last time, I added a cup of KA White Whole Wheat, and the result was wonderful. Next time, I might add a little more, or even try some traditional whole wheat...KA.

I didn't like this bread. I am looking for a white bread that is soft and more like store bought. This one just didn't measure up. Sorry.
