Does anyone have a good recipe for a really nice, light fluffy white loaf of bread?

[Caligula]

I've been using Delia's basic recipe and decided I don't think much of it. It starts to go stale after a day but isn't so light and nice that it's entitled to. Does anyone have a good white bread recipe?

Whachoo doin' baking on a day like this????
Loon.

Well I'd be in the garden while the oven is on - not intending to sweat in front of it!

well if you want preservatives in bread get yersen some Warburtons

I haven't made bread for years and wouldn't know where to start now - also I can't be arsed!

I just can't stand shop bought bread any more.

Sorry, I know that makes me sound like a mumsnet loony.

But I've always had a thing about shite bread.

Bumping for the late crowd on the offchance. I used the usual delia one and just put a bit more yeast and sugar in to see what the result would be

Bumping this for the skiving at work mumsnet crowd. Am still on the hunt for the ultimate white loaf

Dammit Caligula, thought you'd got at least five replies with recipes on for you

Yes - I've posted it here before - I'll see if I can find it

1lb 8 oz white bread flour
15 fl oz water (1 part boiling, 2 parts cold)
2 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
1 sachet dried easybake yeast (allinsons)
2 tablespoons olive oil

It's all in the kneading IMO - however I have a feeling all my tips have disappeared into the ether - will do another search

boo hoo all my tips have gone, must have posted them in chat - have to go out now, will try to post later (or get dh to, he is the breadmaster in this house!)
