Recipe for Homemade Bread


We use the strong flour for bread.
Though there are a lot of recipe of bread,
I will tell you a basic one.

1,kneading



First, in a large bowl, mixs strong flour,
yeast, salt, sugar and water.
Knead them well.
"Gluten" is formed in flour,
so we can make spongy bread.




2,Fermentation (pre-fermentation)


Next, ferment the dough about 1 hour.
After that, the dough is about
1.5~2 times as large as before.
Be careful to keep 28 ~ 40℃ (83 ~ 104?)
to keep the temperature asyeast working well.


3,Bench time


After fermentation, divide the dough into several pieces.
Then, leave them alone for a short time.
This time is called “bench time”.



4,Fabrication


Shape the dough as you like.




5,Post-fermentation


Ferment the shaped dough again
in order to make the bread spongier.
Keep the temperature as 32~38℃ (90~100?).




6,Baking


bake it with lots of checking
because bake time vary
from kind of bread.





7,Finish!



Finally, you eat it!
