The psychological aspect of bread baking has long been uncovered by scientists. Based on many experiments and observations of bakers, it has been found that the process of making bread gives a certain sense of control. Baking unconsciously becomes a meditative practice for most people.
In Europe, there is a practice of making bread yourself. Many people do this not because of the poor quality of baked goods in the country or the high cost, but because of their own feelings. The
trend for baking became strongly apparent during the pandemic
.
In order to bring the nervous system to a stable state, Europeans even enrolled in baking courses.
Let’s create homemade bread ourselves, without special skills
.
Ingredients for bread:
- warm water – 200 ml;
- warm milk – 90 ml;
- vegetable oil – 2 tablespoons;
- sugar – tbsp;
- dry yeast – 10 g;
- flour – 480 g;
- salt – tsp.
Preparation of bread:
Pour into one bowl milk and water, vegetable oil. Pour in the same sugar, dry yeast and salt, stir until the grains of sand dissolve
. Sift the flour into the milk mixture. Knead the dough first with a spatula and then with your hands on the table until smooth. Place the dough in a deep dish greased with vegetable oil and
let it rise for 45 minutes under cling film.
Grease a frying pan with vegetable oil. Roll out the dough with a rolling pin into a thick cake with a diameter slightly smaller than the pan.
Put the dough in the pan, cover with a towel and leave it for 20 minutes.
After that, smear the surface of the dough with egg yolk and press with a fork from different ends closer to the center to create a pattern.
Use a toothpick to pierce the entire surface of the dough. Bake the bread in the oven at 180 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
So you can easily prepare homemade bread without special skills. For this, you do not even need a special bread maker.
