A few basic recipes
White bread dough
375g white bread making flour – 225ml warm water – 1 sachet of baker’s yeast – 5g salt.
In the food processor bowl equipped with the multi-purpose blade, add the flour, salt and yeast.
Operate at speed 2, and in the first few seconds, add the warm water through the lid funnel. As soon as
the dough forms a ball (after about 30secs), stop the food processor. Leave the dough to rise in a warm
place, until it has doubled in volume. Then work the dough to shape it, and then place it on your buttered
and floured baking tray. Leave it to rise again. Preheat French Electric oven to Th.8 (240°). As soon as the
bread has doubled in volume, place it in the oven, and lower the temperature to Th.6 (180°). Leave to cook
for 30 min. At the same time, in the oven, add a glass of water to help form the crust on hr bread.
