The protein in flour forms gluten during kneading. Gluten provides structure and texture and helps the bread to rise. Use strong flour. Do not use soft or plain flour. Water Main Flours Used in Bread Use normal tap water. Use warm water if using `RAPID', `rye' or `gluten free' settings in a cold room. Use chilled water if using `rye' or `french' settings in a hot room. Always measure out liquids using the measuring cup provided. White flour: Made by grinding wheat kernel, excluding bran and germ. Used in e.g. `basic', `french' modes. Strong flours: Milled from hard wheat. High content of protein, needed for producing gluten to make dough rise. Weak flours: Milled from soft wheat. Lower content of protein. · Always use strong flour when using the recipes in this book. · Do NOT use plain or self-raising flour as a substitute for bread flour. Salt Improves the flavour and strengthens gluten to help the bread rise. The bread may lose size/flavour if measuring is inaccurate. Wholemeal flour: Before Use Made by grinding entire wheat kernel, including bran and germ. Makes bread rich in minerals, but lower in height and denser than bread baked with white flour because the gluten strands are cut by the edges of bran flakes and germ. Rye flour: Contains some proteins, but these do not produce as much gluten as wheat flour. Makes dense, heavy bread with a flat or slightly sunken top crust (use in rye mode). · Do not use more than stated quantity (could overload motor). Spelt flour: In the wheat family but is a completely different species genetically. Although it contains gluten some gluten-intolerant people can digest it. Makes loaves with a flat/slightly sunken crust. Dairy Products Add flavour and nutritional value. If you use milk instead of water, the nutritional value of the bread will be higher, but do not use in timer setting as it may not keep fresh overnight. Reduce the amount of water proportionally to the amount of milk. Alternative flours which may be used Brown flour: 10-15% of wheat grain removed during milling. Softgrain flour: Fat Adds flavour and softness to the bread. Use butter, margarine or ...
