I've been trying for years to find a good white bread recipe, and now I've found it. The ones I've tried previously have usually been "too" much of something: too dense, too yeasty, too sweet, etc. This one has the perfect combination of everything, and it comes out perfect! I had never tried the sponge method before, and found it quite interesting to watch in its final stages. (My two kids were up on chairs watching the mixture bubble and move.) I only made two loaves of this recipe because I was short on yeast; I let the dough hook on my mixer do the kneading for me, which I usually don't do. I was so amazed how high this rose once I put it in the oven. I thought it was at its max after the 2nd rising, but it towered up beautifully once I began baking it. I am so impressed with this recipe and am looking forward to adding spices, etc. to it.
