baking bread . Here’s the shorter version of the bread-baking tips:
1. **Use Quality Yeast**: Choose fresh or active dry yeast for a good rise. Expired yeast won’t work well.
2. **Knead Properly**: Knead until the dough is smooth and elastic, but avoid over-kneading.
3. **Ferment Well**: Let the dough rise until it doubles in size in a warm environment, then let it rise again before baking.
4. **Control Oven Temperature**: Preheat the oven properly and avoid opening the door during baking.
5. **Add Steam**: Place a pan of water in the oven for a crispy crust and even rise.
