BREADBAKING (Posted 2014-03-23 16:34:03 by corey_reichle) Some notes about bread making: Most basic recipe is - * Flour * Package of yeast * Some sugar (Couple of table spoons) * Water (About a cup or so) Anything else is just extra flavor/texture/etc adjustment. Temperature that has worked best thus far: 350 deg F Time to bake: ~25 minutes. Keep tabs on it starting at 20 minutes Basic steps - * Proof the yeast with sugar water * Mix flour with whatever else you're adding (Salt, etc) * Dump in water while mixing * Keep mixing until flour pulls away from the sides * Knead for 10 minutes * Make a bolus, and put it back in your bowl (Grease it). * Cover with towel, and wait for the bolus to double in size * Get the oven turned on to preheat * Dump out the dough, and knead for a couple of minutes * Gussy up the loaf. Split it, plait it, shape it, etc etc. * Put that bad boy in the oven -------- There are no comments on this post.
