Next time I would use less than half of it. I’ve tried the bread recipe and while the shape turned out great, the bread was way too salty. Next time I would use less than half of it.

It's just the right season for a warming soup and a good bread! I'm a big fan of soups too. Looks delicious. It’s just the right season for a warming soup and a good bread!

There were no piri piri to be found so I used habanero - only about half a small pepper. It could have been hotter for me, but my husband said it was perfect. The bread was tricky because of priming the yeast and the different standard sizes, but it still turned out great. I used too much salt and next time I'll use a combo of white and wheat flours.

One cake is 25g here (almost 1 oz.) whereas in the U.S. they seem to be smaller-- either .6 ounce or 2 oz. So you will need to use 40% more than what I wrote above... (I usually just use 1 tablespoon of active dry yeast in place of the fresh yeast cake NOT instant yeast). It's about a 2:1 ratio. So what does that come out to in grams?? Ugh.. let's see uh...about a tablespoon. But please check around on the internet. Making bread isn't like making cakes though. If you use too little, your bread will just be a bit flatter, but it shouldn't be a pancake!!!
