I made this bread last weekend and am making it again right now. The family loves it! I didn't add the vitamin c powder because we don't have it here but I added extra honey for the sweetness this time! Thumbs up!!!

My whole family really liked this one and said the ginger really gave it a little 'something'. I, however, was not terribly impressed. I liked it, but felt that the ginger would taste funny with sandwiches and the like. I found another bread recipe that we all enjoyed and agreed that it would be our white bread. Now to find a wheat or multigrain bread option too.

This is our everday sandwich bread. I leave out the ginger and vitamin C powder.

One of our favorite bread recipes. We never add the vitamin C or ginger and it's delicious.

Left out the Vitamin C and the ginger; used safflower oil instead of butter; baked in the oven for 40 minutes at 350 degrees; yummy! Great sandwich bread!

I have made this bread before---I remember it because of the vit. C pwdr. I read in a bread book that vit C pwdr increases the rising process and helps with gluten. Anyway, I didn't have it (again) and so I didn't add it. It rose high enough, so I guess it is really not needed. I was nervous because this is the first time since Dec/Jan. I have used my bread machine with the full baking cycle. All other times the tops of the loaves have fallen. This time, the top was 'crinkly' but didn't cave all the way so I think I am successful again at bread machine making! Thanks for the post. My boys really enjoyed---they have been asking for me to make a honey loaf. (:

The combination of vitamin C and ginger is a bread enhancer, usually used to make the dough rise higher and/or to make it easier to shape. Using the two with an all bread flour recipe is really not necessary unless to shape the dough for rolls, etc. The ginger should never be enough to impart flavor and, in this recipe, it does not. I made the recipe as is except I used non-dairy creamer rather than milk (had some I needed to use up). The loaf rose beautifully and looked wonderful. However, there were "air pockets" in the bread which come from too much rise. I may make this recipe in the future, using either all purpose flour or whole grain flour.

This bread is delicious! I followed the recipe, except that I did not have the vit c on hand. So, I omitted that. This loaf came out soft with a nice crust. It had the perfect sweetness to it. This will be my white bread recipe from now on. Thank you!

This bread was light and fluffy and subtly sweet, but it seemed somewhat bland to me. We only ate about half the loaf. It was good, but not the most impressive loaf I have ever had.
