Wheat Bread - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 3/4 c. milk
2 Tbsp. butter
4 Tbsp. brown sugar, firmly packed
1 1/2 tsp. salt
3 to 3 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
2 pkg. active dry yeast
2 c. whole wheat flour
Preparation
-
Heat the
milk, butter, brown sugar and salt to 120\u00b0 to 130\u00b0. Test
with
a
thermometer
to make sure it's the right temperature.
In
a
large
mixing
bowl,
put
2
cups of the all-purpose flour and all of the yeast.
Add the milk mixture; beat with
an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds while scraping sides
of
the
bowl,
then
beat on high speed for 3 minutes.
With
a wooden spoon, stir in all of the whole wheat flour and
as
much of the all-purpose flour as you can.
Turn the dough
out
onto a floured countertop,
using remainder of the all-purpose
flour.
Knead to make moderately stiff dough that is smooth
and
elastic, about 8 minutes.
The dough may stick to your fingers, so sprinkle some flour on hands before you start kneading.
