First dissolve the yeast in warm water, let it sit for a few minutes and then pour it into the bread machine.
Then put flour, salt, eggs, and sugar in the bread machine in sequence.
Take out the butter and soften it at room temperature in advance, or you can use salad oil or whatever. Add the amount according to the instructions.
After putting all the ingredients except butter, use program 9 to stir for 3 times and 15 minutes.
It is best to open the lid when mixing, so that the dough will not be too hot due to the operation of the machine, and observe the softness and hardness of the dough. The dough for making bread is preferably softer.
You also need to pull up part of the dough to check whether the dough has developed gluten. If the dough breaks quickly when you pull it up with your hands, you have to continue kneading it.
After running program 9 three times, add butter and select program 2 to continue kneading the dough. If the dough can pull out a thin film, it means the dough has been kneaded. You must know that if you directly choose the bread program, the dough will not be kneaded enough. If not enough, the bread will not be soft enough and have no texture. After the butter is put in, you basically don’t need to worry about it.
When the bread machine makes a short beeping sound, it is a reminder that you can add other ingredients, such as raisins. Soak and wash the raisins in warm water before adding them directly to the dough. How much you like is up to you.
If the weather is cold, it will be difficult for the dough to rise just by relying on the bread machine's rising process. In the end, the bread will come out hard, so the last hour is crucial. You can see that the dough has not risen enough. , then pull out the plug and let it continue to bake. Midea's bread machine has a power-off memory function, but this memory function can only last for 15 minutes, so you must plug the plug back within 15 minutes. If the bread machine does not bake enough, plug it in After a few minutes, pull it out and continue to rise until the dough is almost full. As long as these are done, all that's left is to wait for the bread machine to finish baking automatically.
There are buttons to choose when it comes to the burning color. There are "light", "medium" and "dark" for you to choose. I usually choose the light burning color, otherwise the bread crust will be very thick and hard. .
