LIGHT WHEAT BREAD (BREAD MACHINE)

Steps:

• Place ingredients in the order given in bread machine bucket.
• Process on basic/white cycle, medium color crust setting.
• I use warm (tepid) water and the rapid (3 hr) setting.
• You can use 1 1/2 teaspoons yeast, but I've found that 2 teaspoons produces a fluffier loaf.

WHOLE WHEAT BREAD - HOW TO MAKE WITH TANGZHONG METHOD

Steps:

• Measure the white flour in a small pot.
• Add cold water and place over low heat and heat it until the starch turns semi-translucent and thicken.
• Remove from heat. Let it cools before adding to the dough.
• Scale the water and the flour required into the mixing bowl.
• Mix gently to autolyze at room temperature for two hours. (Note: I found using only water and flour to autolyze yields a better result, so this step is different from what is shown in the video which aI made earlier.)
• After two hours, combine the water/flour with tangzhong, sugar, salt, and yeast, and butter.
• Use the food processor to blend it for one minute.
• Let it ferment at room temperature until it doubles its size.
• Divide the dough to the desired amount for each loaf. Rest for fifteen minutes.
• Roll out the dough and then shape it into loaves or buns.
• Let it rise at room temperature until it doubles its size.
• Brush the loaf with egg wash or water before baking.
• Bake the bread at 175°C/350°F.for thirty-five minutes or until the top turns golden brown.

AWESOME LIGHT WHEAT BREAD

Steps:

• Add yeast and sugar to 1/3 cup warm water. Set aside and allow to proof for 5-10 minutes.
• Place bread flour, whole wheat flour, salt and 4 1/2 teaspoons of oil in food processor. Process for approximately 10 seconds to combine.
• Add the egg and the 2/3 cup cold water to the yeast mixture and mix well.
• With the processor running, add the yeast mixture through the feed tube in a slow steady stream as fast as the flour will absorb it.
• When the liquid is absorbed and mixture has formed a ball of dough that has cleaned the sides of the work bowl, process for 45-60 seconds longer to knead.
• Place the 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large bowl. Using your fingers/hands, coat the sides of the bowl. Rub your hands with the oil to make handling the dough easier.
• Remove the dough from the workbowl and place in oiled bowl. Flip dough over so it is oiled on all sides. Lay plastic wrap on top of dough to keep it from drying while rising (you should have enough oil on the top of your dough so the plastic won't cling to it).
• Place dough in a warm, draft free area and allow to rise until double in bulk. I warm my oven slightly (2 minutes) and allow the dough to rise there. It is quicker. The dough has risen enough when you poke it with your finger and the indentation stays.
• Once dough has risen, remove it from the bowl and punch it down. Reshape it to fit in a greased bread pan. Re-place plastic wrap (being sure you put the oiled side down) and allow to rise a second time, once again until doubled.
• Preheat oven to 375`. Bake for 20-30 minutes or until your loaf is brown on top and sounds hollow when you tap it.

WHOLE WHEAT BREAD

Steps:

• 1. Combine yeast, honey, and 1¼ cups (300 ml) warm water and set aside to proof, about 5 minutes.
• 2. When starting with whole kernel wheat: Place wheat, and if desired, salt into the Vitamix Dry Grains Container and secure lid. Select Variable 1. Turn machine on and slowly increase speed to Variable 10, then to High. Grind wheat for 1 minute. (Do not over process) Stop the machine and allow the flour to cool for a few minutes.
• 3. When starting with whole wheat flour: Place flour and, if desired, salt into the Vitamix Dry Grains or Standard Container and secure lid.
• 4. Select Variable 1.
• 5. Turn machine on and slowly increase speed to Variable 6. Blend until a hole forms in the center of the mixture, about 5 seconds. Turn machine off and remove the lid.
• 6. Pour oil, lemon juice, and yeast mixture into the hole in the flour. Secure the lid.
• 7. To mix the dough, turn the machine on High for 1 second. Stop the machine. Remove lid.
• 8. While the dough rests, lightly coat a loaf pan with vegetable cooking spray or shortening.
• 9. To knead dough, two steps are required: Step 1: Use a nylon spatula to scrape the sides of the container. Pull the dough away from the container sides and into the center of the mixture. Step 2: With the switch on High, quickly turn the machine on and off five times.
• 10. Repeat the above two-step process five times, or until the dough binds together in a soft elastic mixture.
• 11. To remove the dough from the container, turn the machine on and off five times (to lift the dough up and away from the blades). Invert the container over the prepared pan and let the dough fall into the pan. Use a wet nylon spatula to remove any remaining dough.
• 12. Use a wet (or oiled) nylon spatula to shape the loaf. Allow the dough to rise until the top of it reaches the top of the pan, about 15 to 20 minutes.
• 13. Bake at 350°F for 35 minutes. Makes one loaf.
