Enrichment Night - Bread Making Class

We had Jeannie Dayton and her daughter Mindy Spencer come and teach us how to make bread from beginning to eating in one hour or less! Yum! http://how-to-make-bread.com/blog/ is their website to give you more information. We also have the recipe with the instructions below. If you want to order more lecithin or any of the products - please contact Jeannie Dayton. We hope that you are all baking up lots of yummy things for your families as well as using your food storage to make it! :)

Bread recipe: 10 1/2 cups white bread flour, 1/2 cup sugar1 tablespoon salt, 3 rounded tablespoons saf-instant yeast, 3 tablespoons liquid lecithin*, 4 cups hot tap water. Mix dry ingredients. Add lecithin and water. Mix for 1 minute and check consistency. If dough is too dry, add more water. Mix for 5 minutes. Note: Consistency should be like cookie dough & sticky! (Do not add water or flour to the dough after it has finished mixing.) Spray counter and pans with Pam. Shape loaves and cover with a dish towel. Let raise 25 minutes. Bake at 350* for 25 minutes. This recipe makes four loaves of bread. *Squeeze or pour approximately 3 tablespoons of lecithin directly into the bowl. Do not measure. (For whole wheat bread, use the same recipe but add one cup of applesauce as part of the hot tap water. Mix for ten minutes.)
