Most recipe will recommend keeping salt and yeast apart until all ingredients are being mixed together. The reason is salt actually kills yeast. This may be a reason you are finding this bread to be dense. Keep the salt out until adding all other dry ingredients. Also you should specify if you are using active dry yeast or instant yeast. Active dry yeast needs to be mixed with water first for a few minutes to be “woken up” and you need more of it as some of it is dead. Given your directions call for this step, I am assuming you are using active dry yeast.

The above info would help your recipe a lot.
