Bread machine liquid sub (or Easter bread in machine recipe)
Comments (2)Hot Cross Buns and Greek Easter Bread come to mind, and Greek Easter Bread is a basic enriched Danish dough with anise flavoring or aniseed, and formed in a braid in a circle. #1. Find out how much the flour capacity is for your bread machine before using a non-bread machine recipe. For instance, my Zojirushi bread machines (V-20 and X-20) have a 5-cup capacity if I'm going to bake in it. The old Zojirushi S-15 had a 4-cup capacity. If I'm only use it to mix/knead the dough, I can use a larger amount of flour for a recipe - BUT - I take the dough out of the bread machine as soon as kneading is complete and proof it in a dough-rising bucket - NOT the bread machine. 2. As chas045 pointed out, check your dough. Check the condition of the dough during the first 5 minutes of kneading and adjust it for hydration at that time by adding more flour or adding more liquid - whatever is necessary - if the dough doesn't form a soft tacky ball. The amount of flour necessary for any bread recipe is just a good (or bad) guess. If the recipe called for high-gluten bread flour, and you used all-purpose flour, it would take more all-purpose flour (or less liquid) because of the lower gluten (protein) content in all-purpose flour. Gluten soaks hydration like a sponge, so you have to adjust to those differences if you switch from one flour type to another. 3. Do a search on-line for a bread machine recipe for "Easter bread" and try to locate one that is similar to what you are wanting to make and one that will work in your bread machine. Have a blessed Easter! -Grainlady...See MoreLOOKING for: Bread Machine Italian Bread
Comments (1)I don't have a recipe for you, but the key to getting lots of holes in your bread, like a ciabatta, is to keep the dough VERY wet and sticky... Not quite like a batter, but also not something you could easily "knead" (if you were doing it by hand, which I know you're not) because it would be so sticky... Emily...See MoreMy Bread Machine
Comments (8)I use 4 cups flour (usually including 3 cups all-purpose and 1 cup whole wheat), 1 tbsp. sugar, 1 tsp. salt, 1 tsp. yeast, with 1 tbsp. veg. oil and 450 millilitres [just under 2 cups] water having been put into the mixing pan first. I often add some flax, occasionally bananas (found two not to be enough), cinnamon or chopped nuts. Son usually adds some gluten flour, to add to the elasticity, to provide better rising. My loaf usually rises to just under the top of the vertical pan - about 7 - 8 ". It is denser at the bottom than near the top. When we were around ripe (hard, spring) wheat on the farm, that is milled into bread flour for baking bread, we would put several grains into our mouths, soak it for a while (it's really hard, so might break teeth if one were to bite immediately and hard), then chew it. The starch would come out and be swallowed, and a piece of material almost like chewing gum but not sticking together quite as much, would develop and one could chew on that for a period. Good luck with the baking. ole joyful...See MoreI Put A Bread Machine in My Bathroom
Comments (9)Sue, at first I thought you're making hand soap but after reading the ingredients, I'm not sure. So, are you making laundry detergent or hand soap? Why I was puzzled: I use almost the same ingredients for my home mix laundry detergent. However, by leaving the water out, it's just laundry powder detergent. It's much easier and no heavy mixing involved. Plus, it's easier to store as well. Instead of Fels Naptha bar soap, I use Zote bar soap. Zote bar is twice larger and I just need to use 1/2 of the bar. My clothes are clean and smell wonderful. 1/2 bar of Zote, grated (1 bar = 14.1 oz) 4 1/2 cup Borax 3 cups washing soda Stir all ingredients together well. I store it in a used large can of coffee (28-32 oz. can). Usage: 2 Tbns. for 1 regular size load on a top load washer. Use 1 Tbn. for front load washer. Use a little more for oversize load....See MoreKathsgrdn
