DIFFERENT LIQUIDS CREATE DIFFERENT TEXTURED BREADS
Liquids tend to impart their own significant characteristics to bread. Water, for instance, will cause the top of the bread to be crisper and significantly intensifies the flavor of the wheat. Water that remains after potatoes are boiled (potatoe water) will add a unique flavor and make the crust smooth as well as causing the bread to rise faster due to the higher starch content.
