Well, muh peeps, it's been a while since I posted a bread. This bad ass baby has the original and creative name of "Soft White Bread"! Here's the recipe
4C. Flour
1Tb yeast
1ts salt
2Tb oil
2Tb Sugar
3Tb Powdered Milk Granules
1Tb Vital Wheat Gluten
1 1/2 C. Hot Water
Mix in the stand mixer till it's dough, knead for 10 minutes or so, then let it rest. This needs to rest because the glutens need to relax a lot! I usually wash up whilst it is relaxing because that's about 10 minutes. Then you can finish kneading it. If it's still very elastic-y, then you can let it rest for 5-10 more minutes.
Ferment for an hour or so, then form into a loaf, put in the pan, and proof for another hour or so
Pop into the 350° oven for 30-40 minutes till it's 200°-205° and let cool on a rack until it's...well...cool.
This recipe is my standard with a mod or two (well, exactly two) because I find the powdered milk helps keep it soft as well as keeping it fresher for a little longer.
