Tips:
1. The egg liquid is used for brushing the surface. It can also be used to stick to the surface decoration ingredients. You can also use water.
2. To knead the bread machine, I am used to putting liquid, sugar and salt, and then flour, so that the kneading will feel cleaner. Of course, you can also put it out of this order.
3. Knead the dough before adding yeast into smooth dough. If time is too late, put the dough without adding yeast in the refrigerator overnight, and continue adding yeast and butter the next day; if time is not enough, the dough at this step You can wrap it in a fresh-keeping bag and let it stand at room temperature for 30 minutes before proceeding to the next step. If you add yeast directly to the bread maker and dough in summer, it is recommended to use frozen or refrigerated ingredients, open the lid and knead the dough to prevent the dough from being kneaded and the temperature is too high. , Affect the activity of yeast, the bread is not high.
4. When making this bread, the room temperature is about 28 degrees. It is recommended to put the middle and upper layer in the oven for fermentation. Usually, only the heating tube at the bottom of the oven heats up during fermentation.
5. The oven I use is 42 liters, and the grill has 3 layers. For the last fermentation, the toast box is placed in the middle layer for fermentation; the baking time and temperature are for reference, and adjusted appropriately according to the actual oven conditions.
6. If the oven is flat, pay attention to the coloring during the baking process, and properly cover with tin foil to prevent excessive coloring on the surface.
7. It needs to be completely cooled down and then sliced. If you eat it quickly, you can seal it at room temperature. If you can't finish it, it can be sealed and frozen. Before eating, spray water and use an oven to warm it up or put it in plastic wrap in a microwave oven.
