Oh gosh! no babies?... yet... so when huh? lolx
aiyah temperature of baby milk also meant it's warm enough to the touch. usually mothers will test this by dropping a few drop of milk from the bottle on to the inner side of her wrist; you know the side where people slash when they are way too tired : ( ... anyway, i think the inner wrist is more sensitive.
some bread making books suggest dipping your finger into the warm water. it should be warm enough for you to stick your finger in and let it stay there comfortably for you to feel the warm. a teaspoon of sugar is sometime added too cos sugar is yeast food. : )
The yeast thingy... sigh. I have a container of yeast we brought from Mustafa. It doesn't seem to rise as much as the packet yeast we bought in Europe. I think the focaccia recipe needs some tweaking. Either that or we are not too experienced with yeast yet. Once, we left the dough to rest for a few hours instead of the 20minutes the focaccia recipe suggested, and it kind of doubled in size although the Mustafa yeast didn't rise as much in the fermenting process. We are baffled.
