Special Glazes for Yeast Breads

•Milk Glaze: For a softer, shiny crust, brush
•Sweet Icing Glaze: Mix 1 cup sifted confectioner’s sugar with 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk, water or fruit juice until smooth. Drizzle glaze over raisin or sweet bread when they are almost cool.

Dough Cycle
Tips for Best Results
•If using delay bake timer, make sure yeast is on top of flour, away from liquids.
Important: Never allow dough to remain in bread maker after cycle is complete; it may over rise and damage machine.
•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 80°– 85°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.
•Sometimes a double rising is beneficial especially for whole grain or 100% whole wheat bread. Let dough rise once in bread maker. Remove from bread maker, punch down, let rise again, punch down and let rest 10 minutes. Resting allows gluten to relax and makes handling easier. Shape as
desired and allow to rise until doubled in volume. If only
1 rise is desired, remove from bread maker, let rest, shape and rise as above.
•Baker’s Tip: Dough has doubled in volume when an indentation remains after tip of a finger is pressed lightly and quickly into dough. If indentation springs back, cover and let rise a few more minutes and check again.
SPECIAL TIPS FOR MAKING DOUGH
Important: For use only with the Dough Cycle
•Always allow optimum rising of shaped dough.
