FAQ:
Q: Can I make this bread without yogurt?
A: Yes, yogurt is optional but adds softness and slight tanginess.
Q: What if I don’t have instant yeast?
A: You can use active dry yeast but activate it first by dissolving in warm water with sugar before adding.
Q: How do I know when the bread is cooked?
A: The bread should be firm to the touch and golden on the bottom if cooked on the stovetop. In the microwave, it should spring back lightly when pressed.
Q: Can I double the recipe?
A: Yes, simply double all ingredients and adjust cooking time as needed.
Q: Is this bread gluten-free?
A: This basic recipe uses wheat flour (if added later), so it’s not gluten-free unless you substitute with a gluten-free flour blend.
