Betty Crocker Let-Down…


I’m always on the lookout for new bread ideas. Yesterday, I decided to try the “Swiss Cheese Souffle bread” from the Betty Crocker kitchen. I doubt I will be tempted to go there again 😦

Basically, the dough failed to rise during the second proofing and I was left with a rather small, dense loaf that looked more like a cake than bread. Perhaps it was because I used a loaf pan and not a round casserole as specified in the recipe (I didn’t have one handy). Not sure. The bread tasted OK, but just didn’t live up to my expectations.

Anyway, here’s what the result looked like:

It turns out we won’t have to eat this bread anyway! Our little dog Zsa Zsa, aka Walter the Terrible, took it down from the cooling rack on the table and shredded it. It seems she didn’t like it much either 😦
