A simple white loaf

Ingredients

• 800g strong white bread flour
• 14g fresh yeast or 7g sachet dried yeast or 7g sachet fast-action dried yeast
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 550ml water at 30C/85F
  
• 2x1kg bread tins greased with butter or lard (or dairy free alternative)

Method

Place the flour in a large bowl and, if using fast-action dried yeast, stir in the salt thoroughly before adding the fast-action dried yeast

If using fresh yeast or dried yeast, in a small bowl, wet the yeast with a little warm water and stir it ot a cream. Add the remaining water, then add this mixture to the flour. Mix well together.

Tip the mixture onto a clean worktop. Knead for 10-15 minutes until the dough is shiny and elastic. Don't worry if it sticks to your hands initially; just keep cleaning them with a plastic scraper. try  not to add a significant quantity of extra flour to prevent the dough from sticking - this will only make the dough firm up and dry slightly.

Put the dough back in the bowl and cover with a damp cloth. Leave the dough to rise at a warm, but not hot, room temperature for 1-2 hours until it has doubled in size.

Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured worktop and knead it for 2-3 minutes to even it out. Divide the dough into two equal portions. Knead each lightly to form a cylinder that has a crease at its base. Place in the tins crease down and cover them with a damp tea towel. Leave the loaves to rise at the same warm room temperature for 45-60 minutes until they have doubled in size -- this will be when the dough just mounds over the rim of the tins by 1-2 cm.

Preheat the oven to 220C/425F/Gas 7 and adjust the shelves so that the loaves have room to rise.

When  the oven is hot, remove the tea towel and sprinkle the loaves with a little flour. Carefully slice a shallow groove along the centre of each loaf. Place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes, then turn the loaves around so that they cook evenly. Reduce the temperature to 180c/350F/gas 4 and bake for a further 20-25 minutes

The loaves are ready if they sound hollow when tapped on the base

Turn the loaves out onto a wire rack and allow them to cool fully before using.

Perfect Vegan Soda Bread Recipe

Ingredients

• 250 g plain white flour
• 150 g wholemeal flour
• 50 g oats (plus extra to scatter on top)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda (baking soda, not baking powder)
• 300 ml neutral tasting dairy free milk (Alpro Unsweetened Oat Milk is my favourite)
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (or lemon juice, or white wine vinegar)

If you really don't like the brown-white mix, this works well with 350g white, 50g brown, 50g oats

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 220C / 200C fan / gas mark 7 / 425F. Lightly Dust a baking tray with flour.
2. Mix all the dry ingredients together thoroughly. 
3. Add the oat milk and vinegar, and stir to combine.
4. Keep stirring until the ingredients come together as a dough, then squidge together to form a ball.
5. Place the ball of dough on your baking tray and cut a deep cross in the centre. This is really important as it helps the centre of the bread to cook properly – so cut nice and deep, almost to the bottom.
6. If you wish, you can dust the loaf with a little flour and a sprinkle of oats, then place the bread in your preheated oven for 30 minutes.
7. That's it, take it out, cool it on a rack. Enjoy

No #soldier he but fought as hard

Striving day & night

To bring us food & fuel

To help lessen our plight

The U-boat sank the unarmed ship

No hero’s grave in sight
