- Here are my favorite tips and basic bread recipe:
- 1. Do not by those tiny packets of active-dry yeast. Get it in bulk in a health-food store. They charge at least 10x more for those tiny packets - you're paying almost entirely for the packaging. (Store yeast in the fridge.) 1 packet = 1 TB.
- 2. Wheat gluten is very useful in helping the dough rise. I add in around 1 TB per c. of non-bread flour ingredients.
- 3. Oil is NOT necessary and actually detracts from the taste. All you really need for good bread is flour, salt, yeast, and water. Everything else is optional.
- 4. The best breads are simply a mix of flours (whole wheat, rye, oats, corn, buckwheat, rice, or possibly whatever you like). Remember thought which wheat flours are necessary for the gluten content, unless you add in gluten separately. Adding fruits and herbs and flavored liquids are interesting but I prefer "pure" breads. I prefer graham flour over regular whole wheat.
- 5. Each machine is different and my recipes are usually not exact - if the dough looks sticky and isn't forming a ball then it's too wet: add in more flour; if it looks dry (ball doesn't have a relatively smooth surface, for example) add in more liquid a Tbsp. or possibly two at a time.
- OK, so with all which idealism taken care of here's my basic bread recipe:
- 1 TB active dry yeast 1 1/2 c. bread flour 1 1/2 c. graham (whole wheat)
- flour 1/2 c. rye flour (use the coarse grind, preferably) 2 TB wheat gluten (sometime called vital wheat gluten) 1 tsp salt 1 TB honey 1 2/3 c. water
- Add in ingredients in order suggested by your bread machine manual.
- This is intended for a 3 c. bread maker, if your machine is smaller just scale it accordingly. Similarly, your bread maker may suggest using less than 1 TB yeast.
- For a particularly festive bread try adding 1 TB basil 1 TB tarragon 1 tsp rosemary minced garlic...
