Time 2h30m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
3 tablespoons white sugar
2 ½ cups warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
3 tablespoons lard, softened
1 tablespoon salt
6 ½ cups bread flour

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Stir in lard, salt and two cups of the flour. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
  • Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
  • Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into two equal pieces and form into loaves. Place the loaves into two lightly greased 9x5 inch loaf pans. Cover the loaves with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for about 30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the bottom of the loaf sounds hollow when tapped.

Time 3h25m

Yield 32

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 to 7 cups Gold Medal™ All-Purpose Flour
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon salt
2 tablespoons shortening
2 packages regular or quick active dry yeast (4 1/2 teaspoons)
2 1/4 cups very warm water (120° to 130°F)
2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted, if desired

Steps:

  • In large bowl, stir 3 1/2 cups of the flour, the sugar, salt, shortening and yeast until well mixed. Add warm water. Beat with electric mixer on low speed 1 minute, scraping bowl frequently. Beat on medium speed 1 minute, scraping bowl frequently. Stir in enough remaining flour, 1 cup at a time, to make dough easy to handle.
  • Place dough on lightly floured surface. Knead about 10 minutes or until dough is smooth and springy. Grease large bowl with shortening. Place dough in bowl, turning dough to grease all sides. Cover bowl loosely with plastic wrap and let rise in warm place 40 to 60 minutes or until dough has doubled in size. Dough is ready if indentation remains when touched.
  • Grease bottoms and sides of two 8x4-inch or 9x5-inch loaf pans with shortening or spray with cooking spray.
  • Gently push fist into dough to deflate. Divide dough in half. Flatten each half with hands or rolling pin into 18x9-inch rectangle on lightly floured surface. Roll dough up tightly, beginning at 9-inch side. Press with thumbs to seal after each turn. Pinch edge of dough into roll to seal. Pinch each end of roll to seal. Fold ends under loaf. Place seam side down in pan. Brush loaves lightly with butter. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise in warm place 35 to 50 minutes or until dough has doubled in size.
  • Move oven rack to low position so that tops of pans will be in center of oven. Heat oven to 425°F.
  • Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until loaves are deep golden brown and sound hollow when tapped. Remove from pans to wire rack. Brush loaves with butter; cool.

CLASSIC WHITE BREAD



Classic White Bread image

This white bread recipe is the starting point for our Multigrain, Rye, and Cinnamon-Raisin breads. See our Classic White Bread how-to for step-by-step instructions.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes     Bread Recipes

Yield Makes 2 loaves

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon plus 1 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast (two 1/4-ounce envelopes)
2 1/4 cups warm water (110 degrees)
3 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons honey
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for bowl, pans, and brushing
7 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for surface and dusting
4 teaspoons coarse salt

Steps:

  • Sprinkle yeast over 1/2 cup water. Add 2 teaspoons honey. Whisk until yeast dissolves. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Transfer to the bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle or dough-hook attachment. Add butter and remaining 1 3/4 cups water and 3 tablespoons honey. Whisk flour with salt; add 3 cups to yeast. Mix on low speed until smooth. Add remaining 4 cups flour, 1 cup at a time, mixing until dough comes away from sides of bowl and forms a ragged, slightly sticky ball. Butter a large bowl.
  • Knead dough on a floured surface until smooth and elastic but still slightly tacky, about 5 minutes. Shape into a ball. Transfer to prepared bowl; cover with plastic wrap.
  • Let dough stand in a warm place until it doubles in volume (it should not spring back when pressed), about 1 hour. Butter two 4 1/2-by-8 1/2-inch loaf pans. Punch down dough; divide in half.
  • Shape 1 dough half into an 8 1/2-inch-long rectangle (about 1/2 inch thick). Fold long sides of dough in to middle, overlapping slightly. Press seam to seal. Transfer dough, seam side down, to pan. Repeat with remaining dough. Brush each loaf with butter, or dust with flour for a rustic look. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Drape loaves with plastic. Let stand until dough rises about 1 inch above tops of pans, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Reduce oven temperature to 400 degrees. Bake, rotating pans after 20 minutes, until tops are golden brown, about 45 minutes. Transfer to wire racks. Let cool slightly; turn out loaves. Let cool completely before slicing.

BEST WHITE BREAD (ABM)



Best White Bread (Abm) image

The base for this recipe was originally from Allrecipes but I've changed the recipe to suit my breadmaker and taste. When I made my first loaf of this I couldn't believe I had made something that looked and tasted like a commercially produced loaf. NOTE: My ABM is older and takes 2 1/2 hours to do a dough cycle. The times include rising time also.

Provided by Lizzie in NZ

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 4h20m

Yield 1 medium loaf

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 teaspoons yeast (bread machine yeast)
3 1/4 cups flour
2 1/2 teaspoons gluten flour
1 1/3 teaspoons salt
1 1/3 tablespoons sugar
1 1/3 cups water (luke warm)

Steps:

  • Place the ingredients into your ABM in the order specified for your machine. Set it on the dough cycle.
  • When the dough cycle has beeped, LEAVE the dough in the machine for another 30 minutes. It will continue to rise again.
  • Preheat your oven to 190°C Grease a 9x5x3 loaf pan with butter.
  • Tip out your dough onto a lightly floured work area and roll into a long rectangle, making sure the width is no wider than 9 inches and about 1/2 inch thick. It doesn't matter about the length. You will hear all the air bubbles popping as you roll.
  • Once the air bubbles are gone, roll up, starting from one of the short ends. You may want to moisten the end of the dough to help seal it together.
  • Place roll of dough, seam side down, tucking ends under, in your loaf pan.
  • Leave to rise until doubled in size, approximately 30-40mins. Brush with melted butter.
  • Bake 190C for 30 minutes or until the loaf sounds hollow when tapped with the handle of a knife.
  • While loaf is hot brush with melted butter.
  • Remove loaf from pan onto a cooling rack.

Tips:

  • Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before beginning.
  • Use fresh, active yeast. If your yeast is old or inactive, your bread will not rise properly.
  • Measure your ingredients accurately. Too much or too little of any ingredient can affect the outcome of your bread.
  • Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. This will help develop the gluten in the flour, which is essential for a good rise.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will take about 1 hour.
  • Bake the bread in a preheated oven. This will help create a crispy crust.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving.

Conclusion:

White bread is a classic staple food that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It can be used to make sandwiches, toast, croutons, and more. With just a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can easily make your own delicious white bread at home.
