Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 cups all-purpose flour -- (substitute up to half
with white whole wheat)
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon instant yeast
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons vegetable oil -- or olive oil
cornmeal -- to sprinkle in pan
In a large mixing bowl whisk the flour, sugar, salt, baking soda, and
instant yeast together.
In a separate microwave proof bowl combine milk, water, and oil; heat
to between 120F and 130F. I use a thermometer to test. The liquid
will feel very hot (hotter than lukewarm), but not so hot that it
would scald you. As a reference point, the hottest water from your
kitchen tap is probably around 120F (unless your tap water is so hot
that it burns you).
Pour the hot liquid over the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl. Beat
at high speed for 1 minute, the dough will be soft.
Lightly grease an 8 1/2" x 4 1/2" loaf pan, and sprinkle the bottom
and sides with cornmeal. Scoop the soft dough into the pan, leveling
it in the pan as much as possible. Cover the pan, and let the dough
rise till it's just barely crowned over the rim of the pan about 1/4"
over; about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
While the dough is rising, preheat the oven to 400F. Remove the
cover, and bake the bread for 22 to 27 minutes, till it's golden
brown and its interior temperature is 190F.
Remove the bread from the oven, and after 5 minutes turn it out of
the pan onto a rack to cool. Let the bread cool completely before slicing.
Description:
"Full of holes, nooks and crannies just like English muffins!
Best when toasted, it takes on the same chewy, crunchy deliciousness
that they are known and loved for."
