Your Guide To Bread Machine Mixes
Do you use bread machine mixes when you want to make yeast bread in your automated bread-making machine? If you do, why do you? Because it’s easier? It is so simple to make gourmet bread quickly from easy-to-follow bread recipes and so much more variable too. If you use bread machine mixes you are limited to the bread machine mixes there are in the shops ” no matter how many of them there are there.
On the other hand, a good bread machine recipe cookbook is far more flexible than bread machine mixes. A good bread machine recipe book will contain 150 or more recipes coming from many countries, but it will also inspire you to adapt those recipes, encouraging you to be creative and invent your own style of bread.
Bread machine mixes are really quite limiting and you have no say over what goes into the bread machine mix either: preservatives, colouring, MSG, salt or Heaven knows what. Yes, it says on the label, but you cant take them out, if you only use bread machine mixes.
Making bread is really very simple. Or to put it correctly, the ingredients to making bread are really quite easy. To bake a very basic loaf of bread, you need only: water, flour, yeast, sugar, salt and a little oil or fat. The difficult part about making bread is the mixing. It can take four or five hours mixing the bread making ingredients together; waiting for it to rise; kneading it; waiting for it to prove; kneading it again and cooking it.
But, if you have a bread making machine you can automate the hard bread mixing, proving, kneading cycle and if you have a bread-making recipe book you will be provided with a large number of recipes to guide and encourage you.
What could be easier? You look in the bread-making machine cookbook for an appetizing recipe; you put the everyday ingredients into the bread mixing bowl of the bread machine and you put the yeast into a time-release box on top of the bread machine; set the timer and go about your daily life or go to sleep!
The bread making machine will mix the ingredients and check the timer. My bread-making machine has a sixteen-hour timer. So, if you want your gourmet, yeast bread ready for 6:30 AM, the bread-making machine will mix the flour, water, salt oil and sugar immediately, add the yeast at say, 4 AM, knead, prove and bake the bread and ring a bell at 6:30 to announce that your gourmet food is ready.
Except that you won’t need the alarm to let you know that. The aroma of freshly-baked bread will permeate your house and you will be very much aware of the fact that your bread making machine is just about ready to serve one of the best loaves of bread you’ve ever had in your life! And you will never ever look for bread machine mixes again. You’ll be overflowing with ideas for your own bread machine mixes in no time at all and you’ll be giving bread away as presents so that you can try out your next very own bread machine mixture.
