Unknownchef86s French Countryside Bread Abm Recipes

Steps:

• Place all bread dough ingredients in bread machine and select dough cycle.
• When cycle is complete, remove dough and roll into a 12"x15" rectangle on a lightly floured board.
• Roll up from long side and pinch seam to seal.
• Fold ends under.
• Place seam side down on greased baking sheet that has been dusted with cornmeal.
• Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise for 45 minutes.
• Make 4 diagonal cuts with a sharp knife across top of bread.
• Bake at 375° for 25 minutes.
• Beat egg white and water; remove bread from oven and brush with egg wash.
• Return to oven and bake an additional 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Add all ingredients to your bread machine as your directions instruct.
• Mine go like this:.
• Add liquid ingredients to bread pan.
• Add all dry ingredients, except yeast, to bread pan.
• Make a well in the dry ingredients and carefully add the yeast into the well.
• Select the "French" setting on your machine.
• Select crust color, if applicable.
• Press start!
• OVEN METHOD:.
• To make loaves in the oven, use the "Dough" cycle on your machine.
• When cycle is complete, punch dough down and divide into 2 equal parts.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll each half into a rectangle, about 10 x 15.
• Starting at the long side, roll each rectangle, jelly roll style, into a tight, long loaf. Seal seams and ends by pinching dough together.
• Place loaves seam sides down on a large, ungreased baking sheet. You may sprinkle some cornmeal or flour on the pan under where you'll be placing the loaves.
• Cover loaves with a clean towel and let rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes, until almost double in size.
• Preheat oven to 375*. Place a pan of hot water on the bottom rack of your oven. This will create steam inside the oven while the bread is baking to give you an authentic crust.
• Using a very sharp knife, carefully make 3 or 4 diagonal slashes in each loaf, cutting about 1/2 inch down into dough.
• If you choose, at this time you can carefully brush on an egg white glaze (one egg white beaten with 1 tbl. of water) and sprinkle with sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried onion or garlic, etc., if desired.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes (or until loaves sound hollow when tapped) on middle oven rack.
• Cool on wire racks and serve warm.

Steps:

• The suggested Tsp of vinegar is an old bakers trick to help the loaf keep for longer and is used in place of the same amount of water. I use cider vinegar but white wine or clear rice vinegar would be fine. The loaf does taste better without it so if you can get through the bread within 24 hours or so then I recommend leaving it out.
• Remove pan from bread machine and place on scales (electronic ones are strongly recommended), and zero the scales.
• Add the vinegar to the pan if using it and the warm water to total 300g (essentially 300ml water weighs 300g).
• Weigh in the rest of the ingredients, ideally using the flour to cover the water if you can. (The times when I use oil, I usually cut it back to around 2/3 tablespoon, but most people would probably prefer the full tablespoon as listed).
• Transfer the pan back into the bread machine, select French bread cycle if available (or whole wheat cycle if not). My preference is for a dark/firm crust for this loaf. Start machine.
• Remove when done and allow to cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Place items in bread maker in order given or according to machine instructions and set to wholewheat/light crust setting.

Steps:

• 1. Measure and add liquid ingredients to the bread pan.
• 2. Measure and add dry ingredients (except yeast) to the bread pan.
• 3. Use your finger to form a well (hole) in the flour where you will pour the yeast. Yeast must NEVER come into contact with a liquid when you are adding ingredients. Measure teh yeast and carefully pour it into the well.
• 4. Snap the baking pan into the breadmaker and close the lid.
• 5. Press "select" button to choose the French setting.
• 6. Choose your crust color and press "start".

Steps:

• Do not use delayed bake feature.
• 1 1/2 lb.
• loaf.
• This recipe came with my Betty Crocker ABM and it's my favorite.
• After reading the review, it prompts me to mention that I often take loaves out of my machine a little early because I don't care for hard crusts either. I then take some milk and pour it over the sides of the bread, about 1 tbs. at a time. Butter works well too. This softens the crust a little.

Steps:

• In a heavy saucepan, cook onion in butter over medium low heat until golden Add beans, rosemary and broth.
• Cover aand cook over medium heat until beans are tender.
• Remove cover, add olives and cook until liquid is gone.
• Season and serve.
