Leave the door open a crack) until it doubles (aprox 45mins). Knead the last cup or two of flour into the bread, then let the bread rise in a big oiled bowl somewhere warm (like an oven thats been set to 200 and then turned off. Luckily most of that time is spent rising, so you can do other stuff. Personally, I would not serve the original recipe at a dinner party – good bread just takes time. I think that this is an ‘okay’ recipe, and very versitile, but with a couple easy modifications you can make it really awesome. The possibilities are endless, and you’ll be everyone’s favorite houseguest. Do your research, and you should be able to find a deal near you. I found that buying active dry yeast at bulk rates was the way to go, cutting my costs from $7 a jar to $2 for the same amount of yeast. That can be purchased in the baking needs section of your standard grocery store, but it’s a little pricey. Delicious!Įven if this is your first stab at baking your own bread, chances are you have all of the ingredients – except, perhaps, the active dry yeast. Last week, my friend brought over her own adaptation: she baked whole garlic cloves into a loaf. My go-to adaptation is to add a tablespoon of dried, crushed rosemary, but experiment with different herbs to find your favorite. I reduce the sugar even further (and up the salt a bit) when I want to add herbs to the recipe. But at the original proportion, this would make a great base for cinnamon buns. The original recipe called for 6 tablespoons of sugar, which I found a little much for my taste, so I cut that down. It really is that easy, and there’s so much more you can do with this recipe. When the top of your bread is a nice golden brown, you’re all set! No matter what shape your bread has taken, bake at 425 degrees for ten to fifteen minutes. If you’re using a bread tin, divide the dough into thirds. If you’re shaping the dough yourself, judge this according to your own preferences. If you go the loaf route, you’ll need to divide your dough into several different loaves, to make sure that your bread isn’t too dense and cooks all the way through. Or you can cut exciting cookie molds out of it, like that of a Gingerbread Man using a skeleton-shaped gingerbread cookie cutter. You can make some seriously awesome focaccia. You can shape it into a loaf and bake on a cookie tin, or you can shape it into rolls. But wait, there’s more! What kind of bread do you need? This dough is incredibly versatile, and it’ll really do just about anything you want. Next, add your 6 cups of flour, 2 teaspoons of salt, and 1 teaspoon of baking powder. Do something else for five to ten minutes, and then return to the mixture – it should be frothy on the top. Grab a big bowl, and stir the 2 ½ cups of warm water, 5 tablespoons of sugar, 3 tablespoons of yeast, and 2 tablespoons of oil together. First things first: preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
