48286 Rev 1 1/10/03 2:55 pm Page 11 Know your ingredients Understanding baking It is often said that cooking is an art relying on the creativity of the chef while baking bread is much more of a science. This means that the process of combining flour, water and yeast results in a reaction that produces bread. You have to remember that when the ingredients combine with each other they produce a specific result.
48286 Rev 1 1/10/03 2:55 pm Page 12 Liquids/milk Liquids such as milk or a combination of powdered milk and water, can be used when making bread. Milk will improve flavour, provide a velvety texture and soften the crust, while water alone will produce a crispier crust. Some liquids call for juice (orange, apple, etc) to be added as a flavour enhancer. Note: For most recipes we suggest the use of dry skimmed milk. Eggs Eggs add richness and a velvety texture to bread doughs and cakes.

48286 Rev 1 1/10/03 2:55 pm Page 20 Need help? Questions about general performance and operation Question 1 What should I do if the kneading blade comes out with the bread? Remove it with a pair of plastic tongs before slicing the bread. Since the blade can be disconnected from the pan, it is not a malfunction if it comes out in your bread. Question 2 Why does my bread sometimes have some flour on the side crust? In some cases, the flour mix may remain on the corners of the baking pan.
48286 Rev 1 1/10/03 2:55 pm Page 21 Questions about ingredients and recipes Question 14 How do I know when to add raisins, nuts, etc. to the bread? There is a beeper tone to signal that you may add raisins, nuts, etc. during the second kneading cycle. Note: See ‘Baking cycle times’ chart for ‘Add nuts & raisins’ time. In some cases, ingredients can be broken up during the initial kneading cycle. Each recipe indicates the best time to add fruit and nuts to the dough.
