This is a lovely white bread that should be in everyone’s repertoire. It’s the perfect bread especially for sandwich making, soft crumb, spongy texture with a wonderful flavor. It did proof a bit longer than it should due to me handling too many things at the same time. I followed all as directed, but because I don’t have a 2 lb. coffee can, I used a double-sized loaf pan instead and it worked great. Thanks so much, Dee, for sharing your mom’s bread. I’ll be making this often, especially because we make sandwiches regularly.
