This recipe was wonderful. Just put a pinch of sugar in it. Will have to try a different setting on my bread machine and put in more sugar, as it didnt rise as much as I was hoping. My dh loved it, and am doing another loaf right now. Thank you!

This bread was very easy to make. It has a great texture. Add cinammon for more taste.

I used butter instead of lard and think I halved the salt and tossed in some brown sugar. The loaf was pretty tasteless and fell a bit on top (too much moisture) but it had the best texture of any loaf I've made, so I'll have to study the recipe and see if I can make this basic recipe taste better.

I mostly am a veggie now, so I used butter for the lard (Lacto-Ovo Veggie) and it turned out okay. Was it great? Not really, just good. It did not revolutionize my bread baking. I really wanted it to, as well.

Horrible texture, weird waxy taste. No sugar to make it rise nicely. Cannot recommend

I have been looking for a bread recipe that does not taste like it came out of a bread machine and I have finally found it. I did make a couple of slight variations. I used butter instead of lard and I added a tablespoon of salt and omitted the cinnamon. Other than that I followed the recipe although I am not one to measure anything exactly and it still came out a winner!! I will definitely make this recipe again.
