This savory loaf mildly flavored with chives is delicious when served warm with a meal, soup, salad or stew. It also tastes wonderful toasted the next day for breakfast. &mdash;Deborah Plank, West Salem, Ohio

Need a little help.  I loaded this loaf for my second loaf with a new bread machine.  At 1 1/2 hour to go it was beautiful, plump and full, and smelled great; then by the last half hour it collapsed in the middle.  What could I have done wrong?  I followed the recipe faithfully....please help.

Wonderful recipe.  Made hamburger and hot dog buns as well as knot rolls and of course a loaf of bread.  Used fresh chives from my patio garden.  What a wonderful recipe..

I almost threw out this recipe due to the fact I don&#039;t have a bread machine either. Glad I read the reviews thank you for the old fashion way of making bread!

Directions for bread without a bread machine.
1. Combine milk and butter in a saucepan. Heat until butter is melted and temperature is 110-115 degrees. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in sugar and warm water(110-115 degrees), let stand until bubbles form. In a separate bowl, mix flour, salt and baking soda together.
Add milk mixture, 1 cup of flour mixture, sour cream and chives to yeast and stir together until combined. Slowly add remaining flour mixture until it forms a soft ball. If the dough is still too wet add small amounts of flour until it reaches the right consistency.
2. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic. Place in greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in warm place until doubled, 1 - 1 ½ hours.
3. Punch dough down. Shape into a loaf and place in greased 9x5 pan. Cover and let rise until doubled, 1 – 1 ½ hours.
4. Bake at 375 degrees until golden brown and bread sounds hollow when tapped, 30 – 35 minutes. Remove from pan to wire rack. Cool completely before slicing.

This sounds marvelous, but I don&#039;t have a bread machine.....   could you possibly give directions the old fashioned way?

Was the first time I made this an. I am keeping this  a real favorite

Made this bread to go with our soup for supper.  The following morning followed Deborah's recommendation and had it toasted with our eggs.Told my son & daughter-in-law at lunch time how good it was.  Her question was:  Why don't we get any of your bread.  Answer: Because we ate it all.

We love this bread. I started making it a few years ago. It always turn out beautiful and tasty. I do add 2 tablespoons of vital wheat gluten, I find it keeps it soft....that is if you don't eat it all.
