THE VITAL INGREDIENTS

Sugar provides sweetness and flavour, browns the crust and produces food for the yeast. White sugar, brown sugar, honey and golden syrup are all suitable to use. When using honey or golden syrup it must be counted as additional liquid. We have successfully tested granular ‘Splenda’ brand low calorie sweetener as a sugar substitute.

NOTE

New Zealand only: Sugar can be reduced for more improved results.

Powdered milk and milk products enhance the flavour and increase the nutritional value of bread. Powdered milk is convenient and easy to use (store in an airtight container in the refrigerator).

Low fat or skim milk powder can be used with good results. Soy milk powder can also be used but produces a denser loaf. Fresh milk should not be substituted unless stated in the recipe.

Salt is an important ingredient in bread making. In the dough, salt increases water absorption, improves kneading, strengthens the gluten development and controls fermentation of the yeast which results in improved loaf shape, crumb structure, crust colour, flavour and keeping qualities. As salt inhibits the rising of bread be accurate when measuring.

NOTE

New Zealand only: Salt can be reduced for more improved results.

Fat adds flavour and retains the moisture. Vegetable oils such as safflower, sunflower, canola, etc. can be used. Butter or margarine can be substituted for oil in recipes but may give a yellow coloured crumb.

Yeast is used as the raising agent for the breads and requires liquid, sugar and warmth to grow and rise. Dried yeast has been used in the recipes in this instruction book where appropriate. Before using dried yeast always check the use by date, as stale yeast will prevent the bread from rising. ‘Tandaco’ brand yeast (available nationally in most supermarkets) was used in the development of all yeasted recipes contained in this book. Smaller packets of bread mix usually contain sachets of yeast. Larger bulk bags of bread mix usually do not include the yeast sachets, however the corresponding brand of yeast may be purchased separately.

Some bulk and imported yeasts are more active, therefore it is recommended to use less of these yeasts. Yeast may also be more active in hot weather. For information on other brands of yeast relating to quantities contact the manufacturer listed on the package.

NOTE

New Zealand only: We recommend the use of ‘Elfin’ brand yeast.

Rapid rise yeast is a mixture of yeast and bread improver. Brands will vary in strength. If wishing to substitute for yeast in a recipe, omit the bread improver. Rapid Rise yeasts should not be used with Bread Mix as bread improver is already included.

NOTE

New Zealand only: ‘Edmonds Surebake Yeast’ is the most readily available yeast product in New Zealand.

Water from the tap is used in all bread recipes. If using water in cold climates or from the refrigerator, allow water to come to room temperature. Extremes of hot or cold water will prevent the yeast activating.
