I may just give that a try, been a while since I have made bread.
Just one problem with it Marie. It takes far longer to make than it would to eat.1:tongue: I bet the long standing makes it extra tasty.
So apparently the beer & black treacle bread buns are now in the oven, and there's a plain white loaf gone in with them.
They look OK. Not bad Neil

Now I know why he's been so busy. It's England vs Sweden this afternoon I think...
These are a peace offering so he can chill out for the rest of the day and watch footie instead of working!
The beery treacle bread buns turned out fine.I wouldn't mind having a go at that but I'd have to cut the ingredients down by half as well.What do the beery treacle buns taste like?
Yeah, made the way PROPER bread should be, not the 'Chorleywood' way
"A major change {in bread making} was the development in 1961 of the Chorleywood Bread Process. This used the intense mechanical working of dough, and control of gases touching dough, to dramatically reduce the fermentation period and the time taken to produce a loaf at the expense of taste and nutrition. The process, whose high-energy mixing allows for the use of inferior grain, is now widely used around the world in large factories. In total contrast, traditional breadmaking is extremely time-consuming, as the dough is mixed with yeast and requires several cycles of kneading and resting in order to become ready for baking, and to produce the desired flavor and texture."

Yes, had another today & still good.
500g seed & grain flour, 7g yeast, 300ml pale ale or stout, 1tbsp sunflower oil, 1tpsp treacle (we used black treacle) 1tsp salt.
After kneading cut into 8 rolls & leave to rise - then oven at 200/220 for 10 mins then turn down to 180/200 for another 10mins.
He's only being allowed on the macbook because it has a virus.
On my iPad, so there.
(The macbook's ok, by the way.)
You wait till the goose finishes watching the football she has a list of jobs for you to do.
Will be cooking the tea as I always do - then time for match no.2.
Yes, she likes to make out I'm generally useless but if it wasn't for me it would be nothing but cake going down the ole cake hole...
Trying my luck with the Sleepless loaf at the moment, but I dont understand what 560g of water is real terms.
Our measuring jug has grams for flour and sugar but ml or ounces for liquids. Any help please.
