h) A word of caution
leaving the ingredients together for an extended period will
inevitably cause some interaction, especially on a hot or humid day. The results may
not be quite as good as bread made right away.
DOUGH
If you use the timer for the Dough or Pizza dough programs, you must remove the
finished dough as soon as the program has finished, otherwise it will deteriorate.
The programs
BAGEL DOUGH (1)
You
ll not be surprised to learn that this program cycle is designed specifically for
making bagels.
BAGEL BAKE (2)
Nor that this one is for baking them. This program sets the George Foreman
Breadmaker up as a bagel oven. It bakes bagels, then goes into
keep warm
mode for
an hour. You can vary the time from 15 minutes to 2 hours, to suit the recipe, to bake
pre-prepared dough, or ready-made bagel dough from the supermarket.
a) Put the shaped bagel dough portions on the steaming rack and lower it into the
George Foreman
Breadmaker (see
Rack
, on page 13).
b) Lower the handle and close the lid.
c) Use the Select button to move the pointer down to the Bagel bake program (2), then
press one of the arrow buttons to show the time.
d) Use the arrow buttons to increase or decrease the time. You can set any
time between 15 minutes and 2 hours, in 1 minute steps.
e) If you keep your finger on the buttons, the display changes faster.
f) Press Start/Pause.
WHITE BREAD (3)
Use this program for basic,
no frills
white bread, and for recipes based on white bread
dough. This is the shortest of the programs.
WHOLEWHEAT (5)
Because of the heavier flour, this program pre-heats the ingredients for up to half an
hour before kneading, and lets the dough rise for a little longer. Wholewheat loaves
tend to be smaller and denser.
FRENCH (7)
The French program uses slightly longer kneading and rising times, to make French-type
bread with a lighter texture and crispy crust. Recipes suitable for this program don
t
normally use butter (or margarine) or milk. French-type bread doesn
t keep very well
eat it on the day it
s made.
FRUIT AND NUT (9)
Use this program for sweet breads with
extras
fruit, nuts, chocolate chips, peel,
etc. The bake times have been extended to allow for the additional ingredients.
RAPID (4, 6, 8, 10)
This option is available with the White, Wholewheat, French and Fruit and nut
programs.
