Measurements must be

Hints on
measuring
ingredients
• The cup is marked in various
‘volume measurement’ scales.
The recipes in this book use
the ‘cup’ volume which is
based on the ‘American cup of
8floz and is conveniently
marked in
1/16
divisions.
• If you prefer to use weight
(gms) as a measurement, fill
and weigh the required
number of cups and record
this conversion.
i.e. For white flour:
1 cup = 144 gms
2 cups = 288 gms
You must use a good quality
set of accurate scales, we
prefer to use the ‘cup’
measure for consistency and
accuracy.
A conversion table is provided
on page 25.
• There are 2 spoons provided
to cover all combinations of
quantities in the recipes.
Tablespoon tbsp, teaspoon, for
1/2
teaspoon measurements
use the
1/4
tsp twice.
1tsp = 5 millilitres
1 tbsp = 3 tsp = 15 millilitres
Hint: measure dry ingredients
first with the tablespoon, then
wet (oil) last.
Your breadmaker produces
delicious baked goods with
ease. This machine requires
only that you carefully follow
the recipe instructions. In
basic cooking, normally ‘a
pinch of this and a dash of
that’ is fine, but not for
breadmakers. Using an
automatic breadmaker
requires you accurately
measure each ingredient for
best results.
Ingredient
temperatures
All ingredients, including
the machine and pan, and
especially liquids (water or
milk), should be warmed to
room temperature 21°C
(70°F). If ingredients are too
cold, below 10°C (50°F), they
will not activate the yeast.
Extremely hot liquids, above
40°C (104°F), may kill the
yeast.
Creating your own
yeast breads
With the breadmaker, even
the most inexperienced
baker can achieve the
satisfying experience of
baking a loaf of bread. All of
the mystery and hard work is
gone. Inside this talented
machine with an electronic
brain, the dough is mixed,
kneaded, proofed and baked
without you being present.
The automatic breadmaker
can also just prepare the
dough, and when it's ready,
you shape, allow to rise and
bake in a conventional oven.
The recipes on the following
pages are ‘tailored’ for this
breadmaker. Each recipe
features ingredients that
best compliment a particular
loaf of bread, and each was
tested in our machines. It is
extremely important not to
exceed the amounts of
flour specified in each of
the recipes or else it could
result in unsatisfactory
baking performance. When
creating your own yeast
bread recipes or baking an
old favourite, use the recipes
in this cookbook as a guide
for converting portions from
your recipe to your
breadmaker.
Special glazes for
yeast breads
Give your just baked bread a
professional finish. Select
one of the following special
glazes to enhance your
bread.
Egg glaze
Beat 1 large egg and 1
tablespoon of water together
and brush generously.
Note: apply only to dough
before baking.
Melted butter crust
Brush melted butter over just
baked bread for a softer,
tender crust.
Milk glaze
For a softer, shiny crust,
brush just baked bread with
milk or cream.
Sweet icing glaze
Mix 1 cup sifted icing sugar
with 1 to 2 tablespoons of
milk to make a glaze
consistency and drizzle over
raisin bread or sweet breads.
Poppy/Sesame/ Caraway
seed/Oatmeal
Sprinkle your choice of
these seeds generously over
just glazed bread.
Other tips
• Place all recipe ingredients
into the baking pan so that
yeast is not touching any
liquid.
• After completing the process
of making dough in your
breadmaker, typically when
letting dough rise outside the
breadmaker, allow 30 minutes
or until dough doubles in size.
Dough should be lightly
greased and covered with
greaseproof paper and a dry
towel. It should be placed in a
warm area free from draughs.
