Would love to make this! Just wanted to ask if bread improver is absolutely needed?

It's not necessary to use bread improver if you use good quality flour floweryspring, but a natural improver is 1/2 teaspoon of absorbic acid to 500g flour.

Thanks Judy. Will give it a go without the improver and see what happens!

I'm sure they will be fine. Let us know how they go.
