So I baked my first ever loaf of yeast bread today (a simple sandwich white). It looked beautiful, the texture was perfect, but it tasted like salt. A lot of salt. Totally inedible for a sandwich or toast, for me anyway.

I used unsalted butter, and I believe I only used the 2 tsps. called for in the recipe. I can't figure out if I screwed up on my measuring, or if I should reduce the amount called for when I try again tomorrow.

It's not a total loss, I cubed half of it up and it's soaking in eggs for a breakfast casserole, and I am drying out the rest to make bread crumbs. Really disappointed though.
