This bread using a sponge starter is the second quickest dough (after the straight dough method). The sponge starter is a very easy method to incorporate into your baking. Because this recipe contains milk, the loaf ends up with a softer crust than breads made with water only. If you prefer a more brittle crust, substitute water for the milk.
