I have successfully arrived at the point of if making delicious bread ! But, in the last 2 occassions, there has been an air pocket at the top of the loaf. This causes the top crust to come apart after the loaf is cut. What am I doing wrong and/or what can I try to avoid this happening again ? Is it rising too fast ? Do I have to knead it more before the second rise ? |

Thanks for replying ! I'm using the sandwich loaf recipe. The only thing I did differently today was not knead the dough before the second rise. I just rolled it up, pinched the seams and put it in the buttered dish. I will see what happens and let you know. Post pics of your French bread |

Which bread recipe are you using? Maybe you should make sure it’s in a smooth shape when you put it in the container. I know like when I make rolls, if you don’t always roll them up well they will have lines depending on how much they rise. Maybe poke a few holes in the top? That way the air could release? That’s just some ideas. Glad your bread is going well. It’s such a good feeling when you get to that stage. I’m making a French loaf today :) |
