Yummy Bread.

On Wednesday we made  fresh bread in room 8. It was so yummy and everyone enjoyed it. To eat it students chose from plum jam, marmite or hummus as a topping.
And what was it that made the bread yummy?Without yeast the bread would not taste well. If you look carefully you can see the small holes which are made from the bubbles of carbon dioxide.

Bread recipe 

In a warm bowl put 1tbsp of dry yeast

1 tbsp of sugar or honey

1 and 1/2 tsp salt and add 1 1/2 cups of warm water. 

Cover the bowl with a tea towel and leave for 10-20 minutes until the mixture foams 

Add 3 and 1/2 cups of high grade flour and stir. When it is almost a ball tip out on the bench and knead for about a minute until it starts to become smooth. Shape into an oval loaf. Cover and leave on a baking tray until the loaf has risen- 20 -40 minutes.Slash the top and rub with olive oil. Bake at 200c for 30 minutes. Allow to cool before cutting .

Enjoy !
