Anyway, tea in my cup (Typhoo, milk no sugar).
It's four and 1/2 teaspoons. A Tablespoon and a half! A huge amount of yeast, PLUS baking soda. But this is a loaf in a hurry! And the result is a loaf that has a quite open texture, not a lot of gluten development and that tastes much better toasted than plain. IOW, a lot like an English Muffin.

Enjoy! I'm drinking my third mug of tea today, this a Phoenix Mountain Oolong. Lovely.
