Tips and Hints for Last-Minute Loaves

 

When making Last-Minute Loaves it is important to remember a few things:

 

These breads are best consumed within 2 hours after preparing.

 

Allow the bread to cool before cutting to allow the structure to develop properly. Or allow

 

to remain in the Bread Maker for the 60-Minute Keep Warm cycle before serving.

 

When preparing these loaves, bring all solid ingredients to room temperature and

`

liquids to 100°F (40°C).

 

It is necessary to use rapid rise yeast when making Last-Minute Loaves – do not substitute

 

instant or bread machine yeast for the rapid rise yeast.

 

The texture and rise of the bread is greatly improved by adding vital wheat gluten to the

 

mixture – in a pinch it can be left out, but keep it on hand for Last-Minute Loaves.

 

For a more classic/traditional bread, any of the following recipes may be made on the

 

White cycle – use instant or bread machine yeast, reduce the amount of yeast used to

 

2 teaspoons (10 ml), and omit the vital wheat gluten. To prepare using the Rapid White cycle,

 

use 2 teaspoons (10 ml) rapid rise yeast, and add 1 to 2 teaspoons (5 ml to 10 ml) vital wheat

 

gluten to enhance the rising.
