White bread

We will prepare the bread using milk and the direct method (without pre-ferment). You can use fresh yeast, like I have, or dry yeast, in which case use one-third the amount. This white bread is delicious with cheese, sausage, jam, caviar, or any other spread. It can be served with tea or coffee.
