Egzandra Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I attempted to make some focaccia bread to take to the barbecue yesterday. I used my usual ingredients and opened a fresh pack of yeast. However, after an hour it was obvious that dough was not going anywhere, it would not rise! the water I used was not too hot; either I put the yeast too near the salt or it was dud yeast. Anyway I had no time to have another go so I used a Wright's bread mix, garlic and rosemary focaccia bread, that I had in my cupboard. It was quick to do, with minimal rising time and although the rise was not as good as my own bread should be, everyone who had it at the BBQ LOVED it. They wanted the recipe, and I just looked mysterious ......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluekarin Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I saw some of these in Lidls the other day and wondered if they were any good. Will see if there are at left next time I go there. They do cake mixes too in some interesting flavours as well I like you being mysterious about the recipe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickcluck Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I use these all the time. Think I've tried everyone now. All raging success! I start them off in my big mixer then do a bit by hand leave them in the airing cupboard and hey presto! Done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
