Thanks, Barbara. One question - is bread flour the same thing as high-gluten flour?

No. I found this:

Quote:
If you bought King Arthur bread flour and King Arthur high-gluten flour, the difference in protein level is 12.7% for the bread flour, 14.2% for the Lancelot - significant. The reason your bread might be denser with high-gluten flour is that high-gluten flour needs more liquid than bread flour to attain the optimum dough consistency; a dough with too little liquid compared to flour will be dense and dry. So you can definitely use the high-gluten; just add more water, and expect a chewier texture

Glad to hear it!
My next goal is to try a recipe with weight measurements instead of volume. That's how the pros do it. Got my kitchen scale. Now I just have to find the time. . . .
