6 T vegetable oil
1 1/2 c water plus 2 t
1 egg
Method:
1. In a small bowl (#1), put yeast, 1 T sugar, 1/4 c water. Mix and
let it stand for 10 minutes or until it bubbles.
2. In bowl #2 put all dry ingredients: flour, salt, sugar; mix them well.
3. In bowl #3 put all wet ingredients: water, oil, egg, and the yeast mixture after it's bubbled; mix them well.
4. Mix everything together to make the dough. If the dough is too sticky, add a little flour until you can handle it. Use your hands to mix and press the mixture until it forms a ball of dough.
5. Cover with a towel, and let the dough stand in a warm place for an hour or an hour and a half until it doubles in size.
6. Punch the dough to let out the air bubbles (this is the fun part!).
7. Let stand for 10 minutes.
8. For traditional-style challah, separate dough into six even
pieces, roll each piece into a snake either between your hands or on
the table, and make two braids. Turn the ends under so they look
pretty. You may need to keep a little flour out to keep them from
getting too sticky. Or, weave them into any design you like. Place
them on greased and floured cookie sheets.
9. Beat one egg in a small bowl. Brush both braids with egg. Let them stand half an hour, and then brush with egg again. If you like, sprinkle with poppy or sesame seeds after the second egg wash.
10. Let rise for an hour or an hour and a half until the loaves double in size. Be patient!
11. Heat oven to 375F.
12. Bake for 22-26 minutes or until the tops turn golden.
Makes 2 loaves.

BRAIDED CHALLAH BREAD
[http://www.cooksrecipes.com/bread/braided_challah_bread_recipe.html]
Ingredients:
2 (1/4-ounce) packages active dry yeast or 5 teaspoons active dry yeast
1 1/2 cups warm water - divided use
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 teaspoons salt
2 1/2 tablespoons corn oil
3 large eggs - divided use
4 3/4 cups all-purpose or bread flour - divided use
3 tablespoons poppy or sesame seeds
Mix together yeast, 1/2 cup warm water (105°F to 115°F / 40°C to 45°C) and sugar in a small bowl. Set aside in a warm place for 5 minutes.
In a larger bowl, whisk together remaining 1 cup water, salt, corn oil, 2 eggs, yeast and 2 1/2 cups flour. Beat until elastic, about 5 minutes. Gradually stir in about 2 1/4 cups more flour, working flour into dough vigorously. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Put dough in a greased bowl and turn to grease top. Cover with plastic wrap and a towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Grease 2 cookie sheets.
Punch dough down, turn out and knead for 1 minute to get rid of air bubbles. Divide dough into 6 equal parts. Roll dough into ropes of equal length, about 15-inches long and make 2 braids of 3 strands each. For the most uniform shape, start from the center and braid to one end. Secure ends and tuck them under; turn unbraided ends towards yourself and braid them in reverse of the other side. Cover braids with a dish towel and let rise 45 minutes or until doubled in size.
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Beat remaining egg and lightly brush onto loaves in upward strokes. Sprinkle with seeds and bake for 30 to 35 minutes. Check after 20 minutes. If bread is getting too brown, cover loosely with a piece of foil. Bread should sound hollow when tapped gently on the bottom. Cool on wire racks.
Makes 2 loaves.
HOT CROSS BUNS
[http://www.flickr.com/photos/parkerman/451245539/]
Ingredients:
1 cup warm milk (105°–115°F.)
two 1/4-ounce packages (5 teaspoons) active dry yeast
1/2 cup plus 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 sticks (1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter
2 large eggs
1 large egg yolk
1/2 cup dried currants
1/3 cup golden raisins
2 teaspoons finely grated fresh orange zest
2 teaspoons finely grated fresh lemon zest
3 tablespoons superfine granulated sugar
Glaze:
1 1/3 C confectioner's sugar
1 1/2 tsp. finely chopped lemon zest
1/2 tsp. lemon extract
1- 2 tbsp milk
Preparation:
1. In a small bowl stir together milk, yeast, and 1 teaspoon granulated sugar. Let mixture stand 5 minutes, or until foamy.
2. Into a large bowl sift together flour, allspice, cinnamon, salt, and remaining 1/2cup granulated sugar. Cut butter into bits and with your fingertips or a pastry blender blend into flour mixture until mixture resembles coarse meal. Lightly beat 1 whole egg with egg yolk. Make a well in center of flour mixture and pour in yeast and egg mixtures, currants, raisins, and zests. Stir mixture until a dough is formed. Transfer dough to a floured surface and with floured hands knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Transfer dough to an oiled large bowl and turn to coat. Let dough rise, covered with plastic wrap, in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 hours.
3. On a floured surface with floured hands knead dough briefly and form into two 12-inch-long logs. Cut each log crosswise into 12 equal pieces. Form each piece into a ball and arrange about 1 1/2 inches apart on baking sheets. Let buns rise, covered, in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 45 minutes.
4. Preheat oven to 400°F. When buns have risen, take a sharp or serrated knife and carefully slash buns with a cross. Brush them with egg white and place in oven. Bake for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 350° F, then bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes more. Transfer to a wire rack. Whisk together glaze ingredients, and spoon over buns in a cross pattern.

CROISSANTS
[http://www.latartinegourmande.com/2006/10/19/croissants-step-by-step-la-confection-des-croissants/]
[Recipe adapted from the Macrina Bakery and Café Cookbook]
Ingredients:
•1 1/2 cups whole milk
•1 1/2 Tbsp dry yeast
•3 Tbsp granulated sugar
•2 Tbsp pure vanilla extract
•1 1/2 tsp Kosher salt
•3 cups + 3 Tbsp All-purpose flour
•3 sticks unsalted butter (12 oz), chilled
Steps:
Day One
To Make the Pre-Dough
•Heat the milk in a pot until it is warm to the touch (be careful not to overheat it). Pour into a large bowl and sprinkle the yeast on top, then the sugar and vanilla. Mix and leave it to froth for about 5 mn.
•In a separate bowl, combine 3 cups of flour with the salt, and mix with a wooden spoon (I used my hands). Add the flour mixture to the milk gradually and mix until just combined. Cover the dough with a plastic wrap and refrigerate it overnight (or for 8 hours). It should almost double in size while in the fridge.
Day Two
•Take the pre-dough out of the refrigerator.
To Make the Butter Block
•Cut the chilled butter into 12 equal pieces and mix it with 3 Tbsp of flour until the butter is completely smooth (use a stand mixer if you have one, with paddle attachment). Scoop the butter mixture onto a well-floured surface and shape it into a 6″square (about one inch thick). This becomes your butter block. Place it in plastic wrap and refrigerate.
To Make the Croissant Dough
•On a well-floured surface, pat the pre-dough into a square. Stretch each corner outwards about 4″ making an X shape. Place the butter block in the middle and fold the stretched corners of the dough over the butter block. Pinch the seams together to completely seal the butter inside the dough. Sprinkle the dough with some flour and roll the dough into a 12 x 20″ rectangle. If the butter shows in places, pinch the dough to reseal it.
Folding the Dough
•Place the longer side of the rectangle in front of you and fold the left and right sides to the center so that they meet. Then, turn your dough at a 90 degree angle and fold the left side of the dough to the middle, then the right side over it, as if closing a book. Put the dough in plastic wrap and place it in the fridge for 30 mns.
Take it out of the fridge and leave it at room temperature for 15 mns. Repeat the folding process two more times (roll into a rectangle, fold the two sides to the center, fold as if to close a book, chill). Once the 3 foldings are done, chill the dough one last time for 30 mns.
To Shape the Croissants
Note: this is not included in the original recipe, but my own addition
•Cut your dough in two halves and roll one half into a rectangle (place the other half back in the fridge in the meantime, for more croissants or another treat which I will present later on). Cut triangles in the rectangle and make a small slit at the base of the triangle. Roll starting from the base of the rectangle to the tip. Brush the croissants with one beaten egg yolk and let rest for 2 hours minimum in a warm room (70 F minimum).
•Preheat your oven at 380 F. Cook the croissants for about 20 mns, or until they have a nice golden color. Enjoy immediately!
OLIVE OIL BREAD ROLLS
[http://www.saltshaker.net/20071102/our-bread-and-butter]
Makes approximately 3 dozen
Ingredients and Method:
In the bowl of a mixer fitted out with a bread hook (or you can do this by hand if you like):
2 teaspoons of sugar
1½ cups warm water (that’s for here, you’ll need to experiment, I’d start with 1 cup and work up if needed)
1 packet of yeast
Let sit until the yeast proofs – all bubbly looking – about 5 minutes. Add:
½ cup good olive oil
2 teaspoons salt
4 cups white flour
1 cup whole wheat flour (you can go up to 2 cups, and cut the white flour to 3, and still get a nicely texture roll, more than that and they tend to get dense and heavy)
Mix at low speed with the dough hook until it all comes together. You might have to stop once or twice and push stuff down from the sides, and, if need be, add more water – however, add it in very small amounts – bread dough changes texture very suddenly – I tend to add about a teaspoon at a time until it all comes together as one mass. Once it’s all in one mass, increase the speed – not too much, just a bit, and let it knead for about 5 minutes – until the dough is very smooth and elastic.
Mound the dough into one ball and either in the same bowl or another, cover with a small towel and place somewhere warm to rise. Let it double in size, then punch it down. Form it into small balls – a little smaller than a golf ball is about the size I use – but you can make smaller, bigger, or even form this dough into loaves if you prefer. I line them up on a silpat, a non-stick silicone sheet atop a cookie sheet, and let them rise, covered with the towel, again, until doubled in size. Bake in a 350°F oven for 35 minutes, until nicely browned, and if you flip one over and flick it with a finger, it’ll sound hollow. If you make loaves, it’ll take more like 45-50 minutes to bake, you’ll have to check it a few times until you get the “speed” of your oven down right. Let cool to room temperature and serve… or, I suppose, you could serve them pretty much hot, right out of the oven.
In terms of the butters, really all I do is let butter come to room temperature so it’s soft, and then add things to it, whipping it all together with a spoon or fork, and then leaving it at room temperature for enough time for the flavors to come together – don’t over-add stuff to it, the flavors will develop as the butter sits – better to go subtle than too intense.
NO-KNEAD CRUSTY WHITE BREAD
[http://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/no-knead-bread]
Ingredients:
3 cups lukewarm water
6 1/2 to 7 1/2 cups King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour*
1 tablespoon salt
1 1/2 tablespoons instant yeast
24 ounces lukewarm water2 pounds King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour*1 tablespoon salt1 1/2 tablespoons instant yeast
Directions:
*The flour/liquid ratio is important in this recipe. If you measure flour by sprinkling it into your measuring cup, then gently sweeping off the excess, use 7 1/2 cups. If you measure flour by dipping your cup into the canister, then sweeping off the excess, use 6 1/2 cups. Most accurate of all, and guaranteed to give you the best results, if you measure flour by weight, use 32 ounces.
Method:
1. Combine all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl, or a large (6-quart), food-safe plastic bucket. For first-timers, "lukewarm" means about 105°F, but don't stress over getting the temperatures exact here. Comfortably warm is fine; "OUCH, that's hot!" is not. Yeast is a living thing; treat it nicely.
2. Mix and stir everything together to make a very sticky, rough dough. If you have a stand mixer, beat at medium speed with the beater blade for 30 to 60 seconds. If you don't have a mixer, just stir-stir-stir with a big spoon or dough whisk till everything is combined.
3. Next, you're going to let the dough rise. If you've made the dough in a plastic bucket, you're all set — just let it stay there, covering the bucket with a lid or plastic wrap; a shower cap actually works well here. If you've made the dough in a bowl that's not at least 6-quart capacity, transfer it to a large bowl; it's going to rise a lot. There's no need to grease the bowl, though you can if you like; it makes it a bit easier to get the dough out when it's time to bake bread.
4. Cover the bowl or bucket, and let the dough rise at room temperature for 2 hours. Then refrigerate it for at least 2 hours, or for up to about 7 days. (If you're pressed for time, skip the room-temperature rise, and stick it right into the fridge). The longer you keep it in the fridge, the tangier it'll get; if you chill it for 7 days, it will taste like sourdough. Over the course of the first day or so, it'll rise, then fall. That's OK; that's what it's supposed to do.
5. When you're ready to make bread, sprinkle the top of the dough with flour; this will make it easier to grab a hunk. Grease your hands, and pull off about 1/4 to 1/3 of the dough — a 14-ounce to 19-ounce piece, if you have a scale. It'll be about the size of a softball, or a large grapefruit.
6. Plop the sticky dough onto a floured work surface, and round it into a ball, or a longer log. Don't fuss around trying to make it perfect; just do the best you can.
7. Place the dough on a piece of parchment (if you're going to use a baking stone); or onto a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet. Sift a light coating of flour over the top; this will help keep the dough moist as it rests before baking.
8. Let the dough rise for about 45 to 60 minutes. It won't appear to rise upwards that much; rather, it'll seem to settle and expand. Preheat your oven (and baking stone, if you're using one) to 450°F while the dough rests. Place a shallow pan on the lowest oven rack, and have 1 cup of hot water ready to go.
9. When you're ready to bake, take a sharp knife and slash the bread 2 or 3 times, making a cut about 1/2" deep. The bread may deflate a bit; that's OK, it'll pick right up in the hot oven.
10. Place the bread in the oven, and carefully pour the 1 cup hot water into the shallow pan on the rack beneath. It'll bubble and steam; close the oven door quickly.
11. Bake the bread for 25 to 35 minutes, until it's a deep, golden brown.
12. Remove the bread from the oven, and cool it on a rack. Store leftover bread in a plastic bag at room temperature.
Yield: 3 or 4 loaves, depending on size.
BUNS FOR SANDWICHES
[Adapted from a Beth Hensperger recipehttp://www.thefreshloaf.com/node/17329/buns-sandwiches]
Ingredients:
8 oz. Spring Water
1 Large Egg
4 TBsp. soft unsalted Butter
2 TBsp. Sugar or Honey
15 oz. Bread Flour with extra to adjust hydration if needed. I used Gold Medal Bread Flour on sale here for less than 2 bucks a 5 lb. bag.
1/4 cup King Arthur dry Milk Powder
1/4 cup mashed potato - I used a microwaved potato. Fast and easy
1 1/2 tsp. sea salt
2 1/4 tsp. IADYeast
1 egg yolk plus 2 Tbsp. water and 2 Tbsp. milk for glazing
Sesame and Poppy seeds, springs of fresh Rosemary.
Method:
Add liquid ingredients to KA Mixer, add dry ingredients, I sift my flour and dry milk powder together. The KA Dry Milk Powder tends to be sticky and can clump together and become hard if left with moisture for to long..so I just always sift it with my flour..using a wisk or a wire scoop. Mixed until shaggy adding more flour as needed to adjust hydration. Cover and rest 25 minutes. Knead until gluten formation just begins. Stretch and folds 30 minutes apart until gluten has formed nice windowpane. Pour out onto counter, shape even weighed rolls, I made 8. Place on parchment lined pan and press down to shape buns. I pressed a biscuit cutter nearly all the way through just for a little extra pattern on rolls. Let rise till nearly double. Glaze and sprinkle on seeds. Baked 350F in a convection oven setting till nicely browned..about 20-25 minutes.
BUTTERMILK CLUSTER
[http://www.thefreshloaf.com/recipes/buttermilkcluster[
Ingredients:
6 to 6 1/2 cups (750 grams) bread or all-purpose unbleached flour
1/2 tablespoon salt
1 envelope (2 1/2 teaspoons) active dry or instant yeast, or 1 15 gram cake fresh yeast
1 tablespoon warm water
1 3/4 to 2 cups buttermilk
1 tablespoon honey
Glaze:
1 egg beaten with 1 teaspoon water
Topping:
1-2 tablespoons seeds (poppy, sesame) or grains (cracked wheat, rolled oats)
Method:
Combine the flour and salt in a large bowl. Combine the warm water and yeast in a small cup and allow to proof for 10 minutes.
Pour the yeast, buttermilk, and honey into the flour mixture and mix well. If the dough is so dry that some of the flour won't stick, add a bit more buttermilk or water. If the dough is too sticky to knead, more like a batter, add more flour by the tablespoon until the correct consistency is achieved.
Knead by machine or hand for approximately 10 minutes. Return the dough to the bowl, cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a damp cloth, and set aside to rise until the dough has doubled in size, approximately 90 minutes.
Divide the dough into 12 to 18 pieces. If you are a stickler you can scale them so that they are even, but I just cut them roughly the same size. Shape each piece into a neat ball and place in a round dish or spring-form pan close together.
When all of the rolls are in the pan, cover again with plastic or a damp towel and set aside to rise again for 45 minutes to an hour. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 425.
Uncover the rolls and brush gently with the egg wash. Sprinkle on the grain topping, if you like. I used cracked wheat.
Bake for approximately 30 minutes, until the rolls are firm and spring back when tapped.
Unmold the rolls from the pan and serve warm.
Makes 12 to 18 rolls, depending on size
PECAN CINNAMON ROLLS
Ingredients:
http://whimsical-foodie.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
• 4 tablespoons sugar
• 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 5 1/2 cups bisquick mix
• 1 1/3 cups milk
• 6 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
• 1 1/3 cups raisins
• 1 1/3 cups well chopped pecans
Method:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F
2. Lightly grease your baking sheet (I use a silicon one so skipped this step)
3. In a mixing bowl, combine the bisquick and milk to form a dough. If the dough is too sticky add a little more bisquick mix, alternatively if you find the dough too dry add a little more milk (i usually just guestimate amounts here adding small amounts of either until it 'feels' right).
4. Give your work surface a light sprinkle of bisquick mix and turn out your dough and give it a bit of a quick kneed.
5. Split the dough roughly in half so you have two lots.
6. Mix your sugar and cinnamon together in a small container.
7. With half the dough, roll it out to a rectangle of approx 9" x 14" in size.
8. Brush the top surface of it with some of the melted butter.
9. Sprinkle liberally with half the cinnamon and sugar mixture over the buttered surface.
10. Sprinkle with half of the raisins.
11. Sprinkle with half of the pecans.
12. Start rolling the dough (from the longest side) until you have a round cylinder type shape.
13. Cut into slices approx 1" in thickness.
14. Repeat from Step 7 for the second lot of dough.
15. Place slices onto baking sheet (so they are just touching) and bake for approx 25mins (or until done and lightly golden in color).
16. Allow to cool on the tray for approx 5 mins and then remove to a cooling rack.
17. Glaze whilst still warm.
To Glaze:
• In a bowl, make up a mixture of 2 1/2 cups of confectioner's sugar and 4 tablespoons of milk. Brush and dab onto the warm cinnamon rolls with a pastry brush.
These rolls really are more-ish and wonderful with a coffee. Texture wise, they are what I would class as a cross between a US biscuit and what we know in Australia as scones (not sure what US scones are like, as I have yet to try one)
Makes 24.
