Follow your manufactures instructions to make dough in your abm . If you dont use the dough immediately you can freeze it or refrigerate it in a large floured plastic bag overnight.Punch it doen now and then in the bag when you think of it :) Posted to Digest bread-bakers.v096.n054 Date: Tue, 05 Nov 1996 06:42:43 -0500 (EST) From: LIR119@...
