Once you’ve learned the basics from this video, you will stop buying bread at your local store ever again!
We’ve had plenty, if not all, of time at home as a result of the pandemic. It is a blessing if you can provide for your family’s needs in this time. Those who have managed to bring their professional responsibilities to home are fortunate. While some are currently jobless and have no choice but to make their home quarantine period worthwhile.
Surprisingly, the pandemic has provided many opportunities at home, people spent time with family and other loved ones. Some were able to explore limitless opportunities in their kitchens, one of these is learning how to make homemade bread.
Bread is a staple food that is typically prepared by baking.
Throughout recorded history, it has been a prominent food in large parts of the world.
It is one of the oldest human-made foods, having been of significant importance since the dawn of agriculture.
This recipe from The Perfect Refuge, on the other hand, is an exception.
With so many bread recipes available online, you won’t be able to choose the best, but you can always choose the quickest and easiest way to make it. We highly recommend this one if you are a busy person. It’s as simple for us as A-B-C and 1 2 3!
These are the ingredients:
- 400 grams of flour (3 1/2 cups)
- 7 grams of dry yeast (~1 1/2 teaspoon)
- 200 – 220 ml of water (4/5 cup)
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 2 teaspoons of sugar
- vegetable oil
Here are the steps to follow:
First, get a mixing bowl — preferably with a lid, and make sure it’s large enough to contain any excess mess from the mixing.
Pour in 400 grams of flour, 2 teaspoons of sugar, and 7 grams of dry yeast. Mix well until each ingredient appears to be evenly combined.
Add some water, but not too much. Simply add a little at a time.
Massage to combine — it should have a thick and moist texture at the very least.
While mixing, add 1 teaspoon of salt. Massage it thoroughly until the dough is perfectly textured.
Remove it from the mixing bowl and knead it on a clean surface, preferably a large board or a stainless tray.
Before returning the dough to the mixing bowl, make sure it’s rounded in shape. Pour in some vegetable oil and massage it all over your dough.
Place it in the oven. Allow it to rise for 1 ½ hour
Make certain that the container is securely enclosed with a lid. Remove it from the oven once it’s done. Remove all the dough from the container and massage it once more on a clean surface.
Grease a baking dish, place the dough in it, and set it aside for another 30 minutes to rise.
Once the time is up, grease another pan, place the dough in it, and gently press it down until it is evenly set. Cook it with the lid on over low heat.
After that, grease a plate and flip the bread upside down.
As an alternative, you could use parchment paper. Return it to the pan and cook the other side over low heat with the lid still on.
It’s now time to enjoy your freshly baked bread.
You can either serve it hot and crispy or let it cool for a few minutes.
After all, nothing beats the smell of freshly baked bread, right?
You will be astounded by the results of your efforts. Simply follow these steps to make a slice of delicious homemade bread. Feel free to experiment with different ingredients to suit your taste.
