A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

reviews & comments
Does the water volume to dissolve yeast have to be 2 cups? It took way more than the 6 1/2 cups of flour written in the recipe.
How much extra flour did you have to add? For the standard bread recipes I've tried, 1 cup water to 3 cups flour is sort of the usual ratio. Maybe it depended on the thickness of the starter and cottage cheese? Both of those can vary so maybe that was the difference?
