Simple White Bread


Because M can handle white flour but not whole-wheat, I’ve been making a lot of white breads lately.

 

Ingredients:

12-14 g yeast (2 packages if using them)

300 ml warm water

1 tsp sugar

500 g strong white bread flour, plus a little extra

2 tsp salt

40 g margarine or oil

 

Instructions:

1. Mix the yeast, water, and sugar together and set aside to get frothy.

2. Mix the flour, salt, and margarine together. Then add the yeast mixture and knead well.

3. Leave to rise for an hour in an oiled mixing bowl covered with plastic wrap.

4. Knead again and shape into a loaf.

5. Sprinkle with a little flour, cut a pattern if you want, and leave to rise for another 45-60 minutes.

6. Bake at 220 C for 20-30 minutes.
