French Country Bread

This French country bread recipe makes a simple European-style country bread. Just enough whole wheat flour gives it some flavor but not so much that it's heavy. I use an overnight starter to provide it with extra flavor.

Asian Water Roux White Bread

This Asian water roux white bread recipe contains the secret to homemade bread that stays soft for days! If you enjoy the silky, cotton-soft but expensive loaves from Chinese bakeries, then you will love these. My kids can't rave enough about them. It might be more work than the usual white bread, but trust me, this is so worth it. Water roux works best when refrigerated overnight; however, if you don't want to wait, make sure it's at room temperature when you add it to the dough. The dough is quite moist to work with. It is easier to do the kneading in a mixer.

Low-Salt White Bread

This is a good recipe for low-salt white bread. Each loaf should make 16 slices, 105 calories per slice. I've found that in most recipes, you can decrease the sugar by 1/3 (i.e., 3 tablespoons would now be 2 tablespoons), the salt by 2/3 (1 tablespoon would be 1 teaspoon), and replace the shortening with vegetable oil. Each rising time will be 10-15 minutes shorter.
