Steps:
- Measure the yeast mixture, flour, brown sugar and salt into a large bowl. Stir to mix and then add the cold milk followed by the boiling water. Stir thoroughly to mix.
- Leave to stand for 3 minutes. Melt the butter and assemble the rest of the ingredients.
- Once the 3 minutes is up, stir in the rest of the ingredients except for the flour.
- Now add as much flour as need to make a dough just firm enough to turn out on a board and knead. [The original recipe suggests 3 cups. I needed 4.].
- Knead the dough for 5-10 minutes until smooth and satiny and it springs back when you press it with a finger.
- Oil a large bowl and turn the dough ball in this until it is all coated. Cover the mixture with plastic wrap and leave to stand until it doubles it original bulk.
- Turn out on a floured board, knead lightly and cut into 30 evenly sized pieces.
- Form each piece into a ball and arrange the buns in rows in a dish or pan with at least 1 cm between them. A roasting dish works well and takes about 15 buns.
- Preheat the oven to 220°C/425°F and when ready turn the heat down to 200°C/400°F.
- Put crosses on the buns.Make a paste of the flour and oil and then add enough water to make a dough that can be forced out of an icing bag. Pipe the crosses on the buns.
- Put the buns in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes until they brown slightly and feel firm. Remove from oven and glaze with a hot syrup made by heating sugar and water.
- Cool buns on a rack. Store in airtight containers when cold.
- If you want to make a smaller quantity, halve the ingredients except for the egg. You may need more flour.
Tips:
- Activate the yeast properly: Active dry yeast should be proofed in warm water with a little sugar to ensure it's alive and active. Make sure the water is not too hot, as it can kill the yeast.
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh yeast, flour, and other ingredients will produce the best results. Old or stale ingredients can affect the taste and texture of your bread.
- Knead the dough properly: Kneading the dough develops the gluten and helps to create a smooth, elastic dough. Knead for at least 5 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place: The dough should rise in a warm, draft-free place. The ideal temperature for rising is between 75°F and 85°F. You can place the dough in a warm oven or in a sunny spot in your kitchen.
- Bake the bread at a high temperature: Baking the bread at a high temperature will create a crispy crust and a fluffy interior. The ideal baking temperature for yeast bread is between 375°F and 400°F.
Conclusion:
With careful attention to detail and a little practice, you can easily make delicious yeast bread at home. By following these tips, you can create a loaf of bread that is perfect for sandwiches, toast, or simply enjoying with a pat of butter. So, preheat your oven and get ready to bake some amazing bread!
