QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS REGARDING RECIPES
Comments on recipes
1. Ingredients

are added.

of dough preparation and bread making. Always use the correct amount in the correct ratio.
•
Use warm ingredients if the dough shall prepared immediately. If you wish to set the program phase time function, cold ingredients
are recommended to avoid yeast from rising prematurely.
•
Margarine, butter and milk aff ect the taste and smell of bread.

To achieve a lighter and thinner crust, the amount of sugar can be reduced by 20% without aff ecting the successful baking result. If
you prefer a softer and lighter crust, replace sugar with honey.
•
If you wish to add cereal grains, leave them to be fi lled with water overnight. Reduce the amount of fl our and liquids (by up to 1/5).
Yeast is essential for rye fl our.

If you wish to have an especially light bread, rich on nutriments for stimulating the function of intestines, add wheat oats to the
dough. The respective dose is 1 tablespoon per 500 g of fl our and increase the amount of liquid by 1 tablespoon.
