Converting ABM (Automatic Bread Machine) Recipes to Manual ones

 

1. Gather ingredients listed in recipe.

2. Mix yeast with warm liquid until no lumps

remain.

3. Add remaining ingredients, as directed in

recipe, and stir until combined.

4. When mixture forms a large ball, remove

to floured surface and knead 5 to 10

minutes, adding a little flour as needed.

When dough begins to feel smooth and

elastic and no longer sticky, it is ready for

rising.

5. Place dough in a large, greased bowl.

Cover and allow to rise in a warm, draft-free

place until double in bulk, about one hour.

6. When doubled, punch dough down and let

rest for about 10 minutes.

7. Shape dough as directed in recipe and

rise a second time if instructed.

8. Bake bread as listed in recipe. Besides

the baking time listed in a recipe, bread is

done when bread is well-risen and golden

brown. You can also slip loaves of bread

from their pans and tap the bottom side. A

hollow sound tells you the loaf is done.

9. Cool bread as directed in recipe, usually

on a wire rack.

 

Converting ABM recipes for manual use is

simple. Simply follow the steps in the

step-by-step guideline above and bake the

bread at a temperature in a similar recipe.

Baking a standard loaf of bread at 375¦ for 30

to 40 minutes is a good standby if no

comparable baking directions can be

located, but let your eye be the guide here.

 

 

HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!!!
