Bread machines have gradually entered our daily lives, playing an important role in our kitchen and bathroom appliances, and playing a battle fortress for making delicious homemade bread. So, how to use a bread machine? What are the steps to use?

Nowadays, many families own bread machines, some of which are simply used for kneading dough, and some of which allow them to make bread fully automatically. However, the bread made by the automatic program of the bread machine is often unsatisfactory. Common problems include: the skin is dark and thick, the bread does not rise, is not soft, and has a hard texture.

The following are detailed steps on how to use the bread machine,

1. Pour liquid into the bread bucket first.

2. Add seasonings, salt, sugar, etc.

3. Pour in flour to cover the water.

4. Make a small hole in the flour and pour in the yeast powder.

5. Install the bread bucket onto the bread machine and plug in the power.

6. Select program 8 (dough program).

7. Press the start button.

8. The bread machine starts kneading the dough. The bread machine will automatically stop after mixing for a period of time. At this time, press and hold the "Start/Stop" button for three seconds to end the program. Otherwise the dough will start to ferment. (

9. Add softened butter.

10. Repeat the "dough rising" program again until the dough reaches an expanded state.

Note: Knead the dough After the program is repeated twice, the dough can reach the expanded state, that is, the film can be pulled out, but the film is not particularly tough and will break easily. The cracked holes will be irregular in shape instead of smooth round holes. For bread and prepared bread, you can stop kneading the dough at this stage.

If you want to make bread such as toast, you need to knead for a while until the dough is pulled out and the film is not easy to break, even if the film is broken. The cracked hole will appear as a very smooth round hole.

11. After step 10 is completed, the dough is ready. There is no need to take out the dough, just leave it in the bread machine. Cover the lid and ferment until it doubles in size. Dip your fingers in flour and poke a hole in the dough. If the hole does not shrink back, it means the fermentation is complete.

12. After fermentation, take out the dough and make it according to the normal process of making bread. The general process is exhausting-shaping-secondary fermentation, and then baking in the oven. In this way, the bread after secondary fermentation will be softer and more delicious.
