i have a question: if you don't have Baker's Special Dry milk, what is the next best dry milk? carnation? kroger? safeway?

thank you

[KingArthurFlour]

@aiaorui11 Baker's Special Dry Milk is high heat processed, deactivating the protease enzyme which inhibits yeast growth. Other dry milks are different in that they are low heat processed leaving the protease enzyme unchanged. To substitute for special dry milk you would replace the liquid called for in the recipe with the same amount of milk, which has been scalded and brought back to room temperature.

I would love to try this at home. However, I do not have the original starting recipe. Can that be posted please?? Also, I keep my King Arthur Flour in the refrig., is that ok or should it be kept always at room temp? Thank you so much for your help!

@rhonda6004 Hi Rhonda,

While we can't give out the French Pastry School's recipe, you can see our version on our website. Just click on "recipes" and use Gruyere as your search word. Have fun! MJR @ KAF

how long do i have to work the dough in order to save its elasticity.I usually cook bread myself according to my style but it doesnt come out as delicious as yours.

[KingArthurFlour]

If you are kneading by hand, knead until the dough springs back when you press it with a floured finger, about 10 minutes. If you're using a stand mixer, knead on the second speed for about 4 to 6 minutes until the dough springs back. Feel free to give us a call at the Baker's Hotline, 800-827-6836, if you'd like to discuss it further. Molly @ KAF

@baxterenrife

Do you honestly think the portion of bread is for one person? Or is that to show your ill mannered behavior.

[baxterenrife]

Cheese bread looks nice. Big though - great for fat Americans. We'd probably do them a bit smaller here in Europe.

This is so f**king good.
