Bread Creation

Hi all, Caspian is back from baking my first loaf of bread all on my own!

Today I also did some maths and some vocabulary. I had to write down the instructions for the bread. Here they are:

Ingredients:

500g of bread flour

15g butter

1x yeast sachet

1 teaspoon sugar

1 teaspoon salt

300ml tepid water

  1. Weigh 500g of bread flour and put it into the bowl.
  2. Weigh 15g of Stork butter and put it into the bowl.
  3. Make sure that there are no big chunks of butter in the bowl.
  4. Add a packet of yeast, and a teaspoon of salt, and one of sugar.
  5. Make a well (a hole in the middle of the mixture.)
  6. Pour 300ml of tepid water into the well.
  7. Mix well.
  8. Knead the dough.
  9. Let the dough prove by putting it into the bowl and putting a damp teatowel over the bowl.
  10. After the first prove, beat all the air out of the dough and roll it back. Repeat for 5 minutes.
  11. Let the dough prove again.
  12. Put the bread on the top tray in the oven and set it to 200 degrees centigrade.
  13. Check to see if the bread is hollow. If it is, complete step 14.
  14. Let it cool for 15 minutes.
  15. Enjoy!

Another foreign goodbye, AdiĆ²s!

  1. Your bread looks great, Caspian. Bread is not an easy thing to make, successfully – it requires so much kneading and takes such a long time. Well done.
