Then, one day, I had some kind of bread epiphany, mostly due to this: http://smittenkitchen.com/2007/02/for-beaming-bewitching-breads/ I've made the light wheat bread and challah recipes on her site, though her braiding directions were confusing to me. The challah, with crappy braiding looked like this:  Right now, I've got two loaves in the oven from The Doctor's recipe that are so very fluffy looking already. It's quite damp/chilly here today, so I did the two rises in my oven with the light on and door shut. It really did the trick, and the dough rose like it would in the summer time.

snailshell posted:Total frustration - total agony. I made pita this weekend using a no-knead recipe due to my kneading failure last time. That was an even worse failure, but I kind of understand why now. The Richard Bertinet video about sweet dough gave me an idea of the right technique, but I didn't do it for nearly long enough, especially using all purpose flour like I was. If you feel like pita again, I've always had good luck with the recipe and tips here: http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2009/03/pita-bread/ (though I did use my stand mixer to knead for me).
