How to Make Soft Fluffy Bread
The key to making bread soft and fluffy is making sure you knead it enough. Kneading your dough allows the ingredients to work together to build gluten which then helps create a texture that is airy and fluffy.
Yeast loves sugar, but does not love salt. Make sure you give your least a little bit of sugar to help it grow, and then wait to add the salt until other ingredients have been mixed in with the yeast.
