English cookingコミュのRecipe: How to make proper bread

  • mixiチェック
  • このエントリーをはてなブックマークに追加
This is a Jamie Oliver recipe[1] for bread, and I've found that it works very well. The bread is robust and heavy, suitable for eating with butter, jam or even clotted cream[2]!

See here [3] for a photo of me making bread.

Ingredients:

1 oz / 30 g of fresh yeast
1 oz / 30 g of honey
just over 1 pint / 625 ml of warm water
just over 2 lb / 1 kg of flour (bread flour, wholemeal flour, or a mixture)
1 oz / 30 g of salt

* First of all, mix the yeast, honey and water.
* Then put the flour into a large bowl, make a small depression in the flour, and add the yeast/honey/water mixture.
* Mix up well until it forms a dough.
* Knead [4] the flour for about five minutes until it is thoroughly soft and doughy.
* Now take the dough and leave it on a plate in a warm place for about an hour. I find it helps if you put some flour under the dough to stop it sticking to the plate, and also cut a X shape in the top. It will rise and approximately double in size.
* Take the dough and bash it to remove the air. (It's a strange step, but Jamie says so, so I do it!)
* Now place the dough into a bread tin or other shape and leave it again in a warm place for another hour.
* Place it carefully into a pre-heated oven at 190-200 degrees C for about 40 minutes.

Serve warm with lots of butter and clotted cream!

Please post photos if you make it!

Jamie Oliver!
Clotted cream!

These are one of the things I really like about England(*'-^)-☆

Richard, you reminded me of one important question I need to ask.
Where in the world can you get clotted creams here? I do love them!!

The other day, I went to pilates workshop, and after the class, we chatted over some English sweets. It was one lovely afternoon!

I have no idea if it's good.

Rich.
bread flour=強力粉
wholemeal flour=薄力粉
Are they right?
Would you tell me,please?
強力粉ーkyorikiko
more than 12% protein
often used for making bread

薄力粉ーhakurikiko
less than 8.5% protein
usually used for cakes

Higher protein is needed to develop "gluten" which is the structure of long protein chains that cause bread dough to have its characteristic elasticity.
It's kinf of you to explain.
I can understand.
And I check wholemeal flour

It has been famillar to Japanese nowadays because of good for health.
I could image this bread is mighty good.
I'll try to make.
Thank you your regard.
