Tips: Bread Basics

Ingredients

Two things can ensure a perfect loaf of bread: using fresh, quality ingredients and measuring them accurately.

Flour

All-Purpose Flour

Flour that contains no baking powder, suitable for “quick” breads or bread made with the Quick settings. Bread flour is better suited for yeast breads.

Bread Flour

Bread flour is the most important ingredient of making bread and is recommended in most yeast-bread recipes. It has a high gluten content and can keep the size of the bread from collapsing after rising. Flour varies by region. For example, American flour is milled from hard spring wheat; Canadian flour is milled from hard winter wheat.

Self-Rising Flour

Flour that contains baking powder, used especially for making cakes. Do not use self-rising flour in combination with yeast.

Whole-Wheat Flour

Whole-wheat flour is ground from the entire wheat kernel. Bread made with all or part whole-wheat flour will have higher fiber and nutritional content. Whole-wheat flour is heavier and, as a result, loaves may be smaller in size and have a heavier texture.

Tip:

To check whether the yeast is fresh and active:

Pour 1 cup hot tap water into a measuring cup.

Add 1 teaspoon white sugar and 1 Tablespoon yeast.

Place the measuring cup in a warm place for about 5 minutes.

Fresh, active yeast will begin to bubble or “grow.” If it does not, the yeast is dead or inactive.

Other Ingredients

Egg

Eggs can improve bread texture and make the bread larger in size. The egg must be whisked in with the other liquid ingredients.

Salt

Salt is necessary to improve the bread flavor and crust color. It is also used to restrain yeast activity.

Shortening, Butter, and Vegetable Oil

Shortening and butter should be cut into small pieces before adding to liquid.

Sugar

Sugar is “food” for the yeast and also increases the sweet taste and color of bread. It is a very important element of making the bread rise. White sugar is normally used; however, brown sugar, powdered sugar, or cotton sugar may also be called for in some recipes.

Water and Other Liquids (always added first)

Water is an essential ingredient for making bread. Generally speaking, water should be at room temperature. Some recipes may call for milk or other liquids. Never use dairy with the Delay Timer option.

Yeast

Yeast is a living organism and should be kept in the refrigerator to remain fresh. It needs carbohydrates found in sugar and flour as nourishment.

Yeast used in breadmaker recipes will be sold under several different names: Bread machine yeast (preferred), active-dry yeast, and instant yeast.

Before using, check the expiration date of the yeast. Return to

 

refrigerator immediately after each use.
