Fresh Milk Toast
1.
Prepare the required materials.
2.
After the milk is poured into the bread machine, add sugar (don't add all the milk, leave 10-20G according to the water absorption rate of the dough and then adjust it last).
3.
Add egg whites.
4.
Add salt.
5.
Pour in the high-gluten flour.
6.
Draw a small circle on the flour and place the baking powder in the middle (this avoids direct contact with sugar and salt, which may affect yeast activity).
7.
Start the kneading program of the bread machine. At this time, observe the water absorption of the dough and the degree of softness and hardness of the dough and then adjust it with the reserved milk.
8.
After 20 minutes, the first kneading process ends, and the dough has been kneaded until smooth, and then softened butter can be added.
9.
Start the kneading program of the bread machine again and continue kneading. You can see that the butter is completely absorbed by the dough, and the dough becomes delicate, smooth and elastic. After 20 minutes of kneading, take a piece of dough and slowly stretch it in your hand. Pull out a large glove film, which is the complete stage required to make toast. At this time, take out the mixing slurry of the bread machine to round the dough, and cover the bread machine lid to ferment.
10.
Select the fermentation function of the bread machine, and it will be ready when the fermentation reaches 2-2.5 times the original volume.
11.
Take out the dough and place it on the chopping board. After exhausting, divide it into three equal parts, cover with plastic wrap, and let it relax for 15 minutes.
12.
The loosened dough is flattened into an oval shape.
13.
Fold up from the top to the middle until it reaches the bottom.
14.
Squeeze the mouth tightly and rub it into a long strip.
15.
Pinch the head and tail into a three-strand braid.
16.
Put the head and tail down in the bread machine, select the fermentation function, and then proceed to the final fermentation.
17.
After the fermentation process is over, brush a layer of whole egg liquid on the surface of the bread when the dough is 2 to 2.5 times larger than the original volume.
18.
Sprinkle some almond slices, select the baking function and set the time to 40 minutes, and the color is medium. When the baking is finished, take out the bread and let it cool thoroughly before slicing it into the fresh-keeping bag.
