ABOUT Homemade Bread RECIPE

Homemade Bread As this is my first attempt of making bread,i was bit scared about the result because i always believed that making bread needs lots of practice but if you are going to follow this recipe i am sure anyone can bake this bread very easily,but one has to be little patient and not lazy :-P .Yeah its true because the bread needs loads of kneading and punching by your hands.So if you want a good result then follow the important steps i am mentioning in my recipe.  Bread is one of the most important eatable thing in our life.As we enjoy taking bread in breakfast and specially in this scorching heat as we sometimes avoid making chapati. As bread is a convenient source of food.We all buy bread from stores but do you know that these breads are not hygienic at all. This white bread is very easy but not so quick to make,as its time taking,so take out your free time to bake this bread.
