To Pat H RE: ABM Baking

[Guest guest]

If you are having trouble making a decent loaf in your ABM, join ABMtalk at

. I have been a member since it's inception and I made fabulous

bread. My DH says that my bread is better than the bakery now. So, no excuse

for doorstops.

 

Also, I finally used my rapid cycle on my ABM the other day and I got a

wonderful loaf of bread. It didn't rise as much as a normal loaf but

otherwise it was terrific. Just watch the dough in the first few minutes. If

it looks dry, add a touch of water. If it looks wet, add some more flour -

one tsp at a time. Feel the dough. Make sure it feels like a smooth dough

(like a babies bottom is what we say on the list).

 

Anyway, the rapid cycle is ok, mainly for white breads but I wouldn't try it

for whole wheat. Anything that needs extra rises, I wouldn't use it.

Otherwise, a plain white loaf would be great. That is what I made. I

surprised my friend when I told her I made it from beginning to end in 59

minutes. She was quite surprised and said it was terrific.
