5 min bread
« on: March 03, 2012, 09:02:21 am »
Hi everyone,
Just wanted to ask a dumb question regarding the 5 minute bread recipe I saw in the home farmer magazine. After looking at the ingredients I can't see why it would need to be in such a large bucket? ( I do realise it will raise)
Which does not bother me I have a spare fermenting bucket but I could never get it in the fridge though!!
So the dumb question is, do I have to put it in the fridge? Or can I make it in a smaller container?
Many thanks for helping me with my dumbness!! :)

I have managed to solve this problem out all by my self!  ;D
Solution is once the bread has finished proofing turn out in to smaller container that will fit in the fridge! I'm a genius!!  ::)

But how was the bread?

It tasted really nice! my latest lot I used a fresh packet of yeast ( for the first batch I used yeast that was a bit past it's best before date) and I got a far better result as it proofed far more.

Sorry to be difficult, but why would you want to speed up a process that should take hours, if not days ?  ;D

Soaking flour overnight makes a huge difference to the nutrients in the flour - why does everything have to be done so fast these days  ::)

I make bread every day but it would be nice to have a standby recipe for those days when the fairies eat all the bread and there is none left for tea
