KNOW YOUR INGREDIENTS Flour & OTHER GRAINS All-Purpose Flour All-purpose flour is a blend of refined hard and soft wheat flours ideally suited for making quick breads and cakes. Bran Bran (unprocessed) is coarse outer portion of wheat or rye grains that is separated from flour by sifting or bolting. It is often added to bread in small quantities for nutritional enrichment, heartiness and flavor. It is also used to enhance bread texture.
ADDITIONAL INGREDIENT NOTES Important: Exact measurements for ingredients are the most important part of baking. It is the key to getting great texture and consistency in your bread. Make sure to measure all ingredients exactly. Baking Powder 10 Double-acting baking powder is a leavening agent used in quick breads and cakes. This type of leavening agent does not require rising time before baking, as chemical reaction works when liquid ingredients are added and again during baking process.
Checking Dough Consistency Although your bread maker will mix, knead and bake bread automatically, when baking bread from scratch, it is recommended that you learn to recognize condition of your dough. The ratio of flour to liquid is the most critical factor in any bread recipe, yet the most easily remedied. After 5 to 8 minutes in Knead 2, open bread maker to check consistency of dough. Dough should be in a soft, tacky ball (feel sticky like scotch tape). If it is too dry, add 1 tsp. of liquid at a time.
USING 15-HOUR DELAY BAKE TIMER Important: Delay baking does not activate JAM cycle. Do not use delay bake timer if your recipe includes perishables, such as, eggs, fresh milk, yogurt or other dairy products and meats, etc. To preset your bread maker, follow these steps: To preset your bread maker, follow these steps: 1. Add ingredients in the order listed as usual, taking care not to let yeast and liquid ingredients contact one another.
• Rising times for dough after it is shaped and placed in baking pan will vary due to recipe, temperature and humidity level of your kitchen. Optimum temperature for rising is 70°– 75°F. Rising is the most essential feature in bread making. • Bread maker allows dough to have first rise or fermentation before dough is removed. Fermentation conditions gluten, (becoming pliable and elastic with a soft, smooth quality) develops flavor and leavens product.
TROUBLESHOOTING Question Answer Why does height and shape of bread differ in each loaf? Height and shape of bread may differ depending on the ingredients, room temperature and length of timer cycle.
