This bread recipe is both simple and versatile, once the dough is made, you can use it to make a tinned loaf, bread rolls, plaits, etc
if you cannot get fresh yeast, dried, fast action yeast is fine, but you will only need 10g.
4oz of butter can be used instead of olive oil, but must be mixed into the flour and salt at the start, just mix it with your fingers until fine crumbs are formed.
If you choose to make bread rolls with this dough, simply shape the bread into tennis ball sized balls and then continue from step 9.

Also when you make this bread when you let it rise you may wanna put butter of the tops of the dough so it doesn't get a crusty layer on the top. - 16 Jul 2011
This was a good recipe. I'm not too sure what the sugar was used for? Just remember to put lots of flour down before you knead the dough and flour your hand or else the flour sticks really bad. Thank you Chefshayler - 16 Jul 2011
