• Soft Sandwich Bread

    From Shawn Highfield@1:229/452 to All on Thursday, March 17, 2022 10:17:10
    Hello,

    Not sure if my system send this recipe up or not as I had a small
    burp the other day here.

    I made this the other day for Andrea and it's the best GF bread we've ever tasted. Better then anything store bought, better then bakery bought ones. Unfortunaly I've now been tasked to baking all our bread. lol

    I will use less salt next time, it was a touch too salty.

    I also cheated and used the bread machine dough cycle to do the mixing and proofing.

    Title: Soft Gluten Free Sandwich Bread Recipe **FAVORITE**
    Categories: Bread
    Yield: 1 Servings

    Dry Mix
    1 c brown rice flour (4.0 oz.)
    1 c corn starch (4.6 oz.)
    1 c tapioca flour (4.0 oz.)
    2 1/2 t xanthan gum
    1 1/2 t salt
    1 T baking powder
    Wet Mix
    3 large eggs,room temperature
    1 t apple cider vinegar
    1/4 c butter,softened
    Yeast Mix
    1 c water
    3 T sugar
    1 active dry yeast (about 2
    -and 1/4 tsp.)

    1. Set out eggs and butter to bring them to room temperature
    2. Prepare your bread pan: Grease bottom and corners onlynot sides
    DIRECTIONS:
    1. In large mixing bowl, whisk together dry ingredients (brown rice
    flour, corn starch, tapioca flour, xanthan gum, salt, and baking powder)
    . Set aside.
    2. In microwavable measuring cup, heat the water to about 100░ (in my
    microwave that takes 25 seconds)
    3. To the hot water, add the yeast packet and the sugar. Give a quick
    stir and set aside to proof for 5 minutes. This will show that your
    yeast is alive.
    4. While you are waiting for yeast to proof, in a medium mixing bowl,
    mix together your wet ingredients (eggs, apple cider vinegar, and
    butter).
    5. Add this wet ingredients mix into your dry ingredients. Mix on low
    until everything is combined (it will be crumbly).
    6. After 5 minutes have passed, take a look at your yeast mix. It
    should be starting to foam to let you know its alive. If it is foamy,
    continue to step 7.
    If your yeast is not foaming, it may indicate that it is not alive.
    Check your package for expiration date, and if needed, try a different
    package. **If the yeast is not alive, do not continue with the recipe,
    as you will just be wasting your ingredients!** Get a fresh package and
    proof again.
    7. Once you have your yeast foaming, pour it into your batter. Beat on
    low until combined (about 30 seconds), then mix on medium/high for
    about 7 minutes more. (Please dont skip the mixing timeits important to
    the results) Your batter should resemble a thick cake batter. (Dont
    expect it to look like a gluten dough that you will knead because it
    wont!)
    8. Pour into prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with the back of a
    spoon or a spatula.
    9. Cover with plastic wrap and set in a warm place to rise until dough
    reaches the top edge of the pan (roughly 35-40 minutes). Try to remove
    the plastic wrap just before dough touches it. Allow to continue rising
    as needed.
    10. As the dough is rising, preheat your oven to 375░
    11. When dough is done rising, bake on center rack until internal
    temperature reaches 207░. A thermometer is by far the best way to get
    success with bread, as every oven varies. However, if you dont have one,
    as a guideline bake for 40 minutes. (Sometimes I cover mine loosely
    with tinfoil during the last 10-15 minutes of baking to prevent over- browning.)
    12. Let cool COMPLETELY on wire rack before cutting. This will usually
    be at least 3 hours. It is normal for bread to sink slightly when
    cooling. To help keep top rounded you can cool bread on its side,
    rotating once in a while between sides and upright position.
    13. When slicing bread, be sure to use a serrated knife to gently saw
    back and forthdont press or you will squish your beautiful loaf of
    bread.
    14. Enjoy!

    That's not a cheat - that's smart kitchen management. I only made GF

    Made some copycat Domino's Garlic Knots using a Bob's Red Mill recipe
    and a Food Network recipe (via a recipe scraper site). And my bread
    machine .... altho I was a little spooked by the "While conventional
    pizza dough is kneaded multiple times to help develop the gluten and
    create the desired rise, gluten free doughs are not kneaded at all.
    With no gluten to develop, kneading a gluten free dough is pointless.
    In fact, most gluten free doughs are incredibly sticky and trying to
    knead a sticky dough will create a mess. When mixing a gluten free
    dough, skip the kneading and focus on the specific ingredients added
    to the recipe to help the dough rise properly." in the original web
    site instructions. It worked OK in the bread machine - and I'll know
    next time (if there is a next time). Bv)=

    Title: Easy Gluten Free Pizza Dough
    Categories: Breads
    Yield: 2 small pizzas

    1/4 c (59 mL) warm Water
    2 ts (7 g) active dry yeast
    2 tb (15 mL) honey or sugar
    2 lg Eggs
    1 1/4 c (150 g) millet flour
    1/4 c (40 g) brown rice flour
    1 1/2 ts (5 g) xanthan gum
    1 ts (4 g) baking powder
    1/2 ts Salt
    2 tb (30 ml) olive oil
    1/4 c Water; as needed (more or
    - less)
    Cornmeal for dusting pan

    Let eggs come to room temperature.

    Combine water, yeast and honey and allow to sit for 5
    minutes, until active and bubbly.

    In a large bowl of a standing mixer, combine flours,
    xanthan gum, baking powder and salt. Whisk to combine.
    Next add eggs, olive oil and yeast mixture. Blend on
    medium using a dough hook. Add additional water as
    needed, starting with a tablespoon at a time. Knead
    in mixer for 5 minutes.

    Place dough in an oiled bowl and cover with a towel. If
    you want to bake your pizzas later, place dough in the
    fridge for a slow rise. If you are baking sooner, either
    leave in a warm draft free place in your kitchen or
    place in your oven with the light on. Allow to rise
    until doubled in size. This will take 1-2 hours
    depending on how warm your area is. The oven only
    takes about an hour.

    When ready to bake, set your oven @ 450║F/232║C.

    Line a baking sheet with parchment paper lightly dusted
    with cornmeal. Divide the dough into 2 equal pieces.
    Roll into a ball, then flatten the dough with wet hands
    into the shape you desire. Bake in preheated oven for 5
    minutes. Top as you like and bake for an additional
    10-15 minutes, or until cheese is browned and bubbly
    and your crust is golden brown.

    Title: Garlic Knots
    Categories: Breads, Vegetables, Cheese, Herbs
    Yield: 24 kbots

    1 Recipe pizza dough
    1/2 c Unsalted butter
    3 tb Minced garlic
    1 tb Olive oil
    1 ts Coarse sea salt
    1/4 c Grated Pecorino Romano
    - cheese
    2 tb Chopped fresh parsley
    Yellow cornmeal; for the
    - baking sheet

    While your pizza dough rises .......

    Combine butter and garlic in a small saucepan over low
    heat. Cook until the garlic is fragrant and tender, 3 to
    4 minutes. Cover, remove from the heat and set aside.
    Keep warm.

    Set oven @ 375║F/190║C and lightly grease 2 large baking
    sheets. Set aside.

    Remove risen dough from the bowl and place on a lightly
    floured surface. Using a lightly floured rolling pin,
    roll dough out into a large rectangle, about 16" by 12"
    Brush the dough lightly with the olive oil. Cut the
    dough in half lengthwise and then cut crosswise into
    strips about 1 1/4" wide. Tie each strip loosely into
    a knot, stretching gently if necessary, and place on
    prepared baking sheets about 2" apart. Sprinkle the tops
    of the knots with salt. Cover with plastic wrap or a
    clean kitchen towel and let rise in a warm, draft-free
    place for about 30 minutes.

    Bake until golden brown and risen, about 20 minutes.
    Transfer to a large mixing bowl and toss gently with the
    warm garlic butter, Pecorino Romano cheese, and parsley.
    Add salt to taste if necessary. Serve immediately.

    work.

    I'm definitely going to make the garlic knots again - but probably not

    dings I put the dough in a loaf pan or form it on a baking sheet and
    pop it into the oven. If I want a "rustic" crust I can put a saucer of
    water on a lower shelf to provide humidity and "toughen" the crust.

    This ain't gluten-free but it could likely be made so ....

    Title: Rustic Italian Cheese Bread
    Categories: Breads, Herbs, Cheese
    Yield: 12 Servings

    1 c Warm water; 125┬║F/52┬║C
    2 tb Olive oil
    3 c Unbleached flour
    2 ts Sugar
    1/2 ts Salt
    1 ts Italian seasoning mix
    1/4 ts Garlic granules; or more
    1 Packet cheese mix from a box
    - of generic Mac & Cheese.
    1 pk Active dry yeast
    Cornmeal
    1 Egg white; beaten

    Place ingredients except cornmeal & egg white in bread
    machine pan according to manufacturer's directions.
    Process on dough setting.

    Sprinkle ungreased cookie sheet with cornmeal. At end
    of dough cycle, remove dough from machine; place on a
    lightly floured surface. Punch down dough (If dough
    is sticky, knead in additional flour before shaping).

    Shape dough into baguette-shaped loaf about 12" long.
    Place loaf on cornmeal-coated sheet. Cover; let rise
    in warm place, 80-85┬║F/27-29┬║C, for 20-25 minutes or
    until light and doubled in size.

    Heat oven to 375┬║F/190┬║C. With a sharp knife, make
    one deep lengthwise slash in top of loaf. Brush loaf
    with egg white.

    Bake for 25-35 minutes or until loaf sounds hollow
    when lightly tapped.

    Makes one 12 slice loaf.

    NOTE: You can also let the bread machine do the baking
    for you - but the loaf won't look "rustic". It will, of
    course, taste just as good. - UDD

    I also cheated and used the bread machine dough cycle to do the
    mixing and proofing.

    We do that all the time but form our buns and loaves by hand and
    bake them in the oven. We prefer the crust development in a 425 F
    oven.

    Also we can make one small sandwich loaf and either four submarine
    loaves, six hamburger buns or dinner rolls or eight hot dog buns
    from a single batch rather than just one large loaf.

    I still have a bunch of callaloo recipes to post:

    Title: Sufganiyot w/Bourbon-Orange Glaze
    Categories: Breads, Booze, Citrus
    Yield: 18 servings

    MMMMM---------------------------DONUTS--------------------------------
    1 1/2 c All-purpose flour
    1/2 c Sugar
    1 ts Baking powder
    pn Salt
    1/2 c Buttermilk
    2 lg Eggs; separated
    1 tb Melted unsalted butter
    1 tb Fresh orange juice
    2 1/2 ts Fine grated orange zest
    1 ts Vanilla extract
    Oil; for frying

    MMMMM---------------------DUSTING & GLAZING--------------------------
    1/4 c Orange marmalade
    1 tb Bourbon
    Confectioners' sugar

    MAKE THE DONUTS: In a large bowl, whisk together the
    flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a medium bowl,
    whisk together the buttermilk, egg yolks, butter, orange
    juice and zest, and vanilla. Fold the wet mixture into
    the dry ingredients until just combined (do not
    overmix), then set aside.

    Fill a heavy-bottom pan fitted w/deep-fry thermometer
    with oil to a depth of 2", then set over medium heat
    and heat to 375-|F/190-|C.

    Meanwhile, in a clean medium bowl, use a wire whisk or
    an electric mixer to whip the egg whites to medium-stiff
    peaks. Switch to a silicone spatula and gently fold the
    whites into the reserved batter.

    FRY THE DONUTS: Line a large rimmed baking sheet with a
    few layers of paper towels and set it by the stove.
    Working in batches and using a tablespoon-sized
    measuring spoon, scoop the batter into the oil and cook
    until puffed and golden brown on one side, about 3
    minutes. Using tongs, a slotted spoon, or a spider
    skimmer, flip the donuts and continue cooking until
    evenly golden brown, about 3 minutes more. Transfer to
    the lined baking sheet to drain while you fry the rest
    of the donuts.

    WHILE DOUGHNUTS ARE FRYING, MIX THE GLAZE: In a small
    bowl, whisk together the marmalade and bourbon and set
    aside.

    When all the donuts are fried, drizzle with the reserved
    glaze. Dust with confectioners' sugar and serve
    immediately.

    Yield: makes 18 donuts
