“This helped me so much! I have tried bread so many times in the past and could never get it right. Had a slice of my very first home made bread this morning and it was delicious. This was so easy to do and so worth it. Thank you!” — a cook
“I followed the recipe exactly as it was written, never got a smooth dough, it was a sticky, lumpy brick that I threw in the trash. Never even came together into a cohesive ball.” — a cook
