Grease can make bread soften and delay storage life. Butter should be melted or chopped to small
particles before using.
12. Baking powder
Baking powder is used for rising the Ultra Fast bread and cake. As it does not need rise time, and it
can produce the air, the air will form bubble to soften the texture of bread utilizing chemical
principle.
13. Soda
It is similar with baking powder. It can also used in combination with baking powder.
14. Water and other liquid
Water is essential ingredient for making bread. Generally speaking, water temperature between 20
0
C
and 25
0
C is the best. The water may be replaced with fresh milk or water mixed with 2% milk
powder, which may enhance bread flavor and improve crust color. Some recipes may call for juice for
the purpose of enhancing bread flavor, e.g. apple juice, orange juice, lemon juice and so on.
Ingredients measurement
One of important step for making good bread is proper amount of ingredients. It is strongly suggested
that use measuring cup or measuring spoon to obtain accurate amount, otherwise the bread will be
largely influenced.
•
Weighing liquid ingredients
Water, fresh milk or milk powder solution should be measured with measuring cups. Observe the
level of the measuring cup with your eyes horizontally. When you measure cooking oil or other
ingredients, clean the measuring cup thoroughly without any other ingredients.
•
Dry measurements
Dry measuring must be done by gently spooning ingredients into the measuring cup and then once
filled, leveling off with a knife. Scooping or tapping a measuring cup with more than is required. This
extra amount could affect the balance of the recipe. When measuring small amounts of dry
ingredients, the measuring spoon must be used. Measurements must be level, not heaped as this
small difference could throw out the critical balance of the recipe.
•
Adding sequence
The sequence of adding ingredients should be abided, generally speaking, the sequence is: liquid
ingredient, eggs, salt and milk powder etc. When adding the ingredient, the flour can't be wetted by
liquid completely. The yeast can only be placed on the dry flour. And yeast can't touch with salt. After
the flour has been kneaded for some time and a beep will prompt you to put fruit ingredients into
the mixture. If the fruit ingredients are added too early, the flavor will be diminished after long time
mixing. When you use the delay function for a long time, never add the perishable ingredients such
as eggs, fruit ingredient.
