Frequently Asked Questions
Can I substitute active dry yeast with instant yeast in this recipe?
Yes, you can substitute active dry yeast with instant yeast. Use the same amount (1/2 tablespoon), but you can skip the step of dissolving it in water. Just mix it directly into the dry ingredients.
How should I store the bread after baking to keep it fresh?
To store the baked bread, allow it to cool completely and then wrap it in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. You can also store it in an airtight container. For longer storage, consider freezing the bread, wrapped tightly, for up to 3 months.
What should I do if the dough does not rise?
If the dough does not rise, it could be due to the yeast being inactive. Make sure your yeast is fresh and properly activated in warm water. If using older yeast, replace it with a new packet. Also, ensure that the rising environment is warm; if it's too cold, the yeast will not activate properly.
