This is one of those recipes that took ages to perfect. Each experiment yielded beautiful bread that was delicate, aromatic and savory-sweet. Unfortunately, we couldn’t get the tops to rise to perfection and stay there. With almost every attempt, the loaf would climb toward the top of the machine and then sink slightly—or drastically—near [click headline for more -- or photo in Facebook]
