I found another bread recipe called basic white bread. This is even more basic than the first. The ingredients for this one was only yeast, sugar, water, flour and salt. The crust was amazing so flaky. It was cooked in Dutch oven with the lid closed for the first half then open for the last half.

Looks like it could use a bit more of a proof and a bit more time baking.

Thanks, first go at this recipe, trying to figure it out.

Looking good! Maybe a couple of minutes longer in the oven. I've been baking bread for years, but I only got decent at it once I found a bakers apprentice book. It helped me understand the very basics of the chemistry and physics behind it.

Take two, I think the first attempt had the dough too moist. Today's turned out very nice, I think

Nice! Great crust and structure.

I tried to make rolls once.
Not sure was I underage still back then.

Went to the market and found everything else than yeast. Asked the workers 2-3 times but I still didn't find it. Frustrated, I gave up, put other ingredients away and went home.

I later learned that the package (at least here) is very small, and that we also have a dried version of it.
It may well be that I lost all my interest in baking because of this experience.
