Tips for Making Bread<\/h2>\n

Kneading bread dough combines the ingredients and helps create the gluten structure that gives the bread texture.<\/p>\n

To knead dough by hand:<\/strong> Mix the ingredients in a large bowl with a wooden spoon. Turn out the dough to a well-floured surface. Flour your hands, and gently push the dough down and away from you with the heals of your hands. Fold the dough in half, give it a quarter turn, and push the dough down and away from you again. Sprinkle flour as needed to prevent sticking and repeat the kneading process for about 5 minutes until you have a soft, smooth dough.<\/p>\n

Kitchen appliances that make it easier to knead bread dough:<\/h3>\n

You can knead your bread dough by hand, but there are several kitchen appliances that make it so much easier:<\/p>\n

Bread machine:<\/strong> I love using a bread machine<\/a>‘s dough cycle for mixing the ingredients and the first rising. After the first rise, remove the dough, shape, cover, let rise until double, and bake it in the oven.<\/p>\n

If you are using a bread machine, add the ingredients according to your machine’s recommendation (each brand is different), set to the dough cycle, and let the dough mix, knead, and rise in the machine. Skip to step 4 in the recipe below.<\/p>\n

Stand mixer with dough hook:<\/strong> A sturdy stand mixer<\/a> can handle the mixing and kneading for you. A dough hook will combine the ingredients, and knead the dough by turning and folding it in the mixing bowl.<\/p>\n

If you are using a stand mixer with a dough hook, add all the ingredients except the flour to the mixing bowl. Turn the machine on low to combine the ingredients. Add the flour gradually allowing the mixer blend it in each time. The dough should begin pulling away from the sides of the bowl and cling to the hook. Stop the mixer and scrape the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Turn the mixer on again and knead on low speed for 3-5 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic. Continue with step 3 below.<\/p>\n
