My first bread. A slightly sweet white one.
This is my first bread. I made it following the instructions of the instant Lesaffre yeast plus some stuff I saw in a BBC video with some french cook who loves too much the bread and cheers artisan ones. The portion is small as it's just for me ^_^
- 250 gr 0000 flour.
- 10 gr butter
- 2 tsp of honey.
- 175 ml milk
- 2.5 gr instant yeast, all purpose.
Just mix everything, make sure the milk is not hot otherwise that will kill the yeast, knead for 10 minutes (no knead is no fun!) and let it rest for an hour. After that, gently press a little bit to flush the excess of CO2, massage it a little bit, give some shape and put in the pan. Let it rest for another hour. With a sharp knife make some cuts and throw in the oven at 150 ÂșC until it's golden brown because of the sugars and you are done!
