British
This quick and easy recipe was created by Doris Grant and published
in her cookbook in the 1940's. The dough requires no kneading and
requires only a minute to mix. The loaves should keep moist for several days.
Makes 3 loaves
Cooks's Tip:
Muscovado sugar gives this bread a rich flavor. An unrefined cane
sugar, it is dark and moist.
NOTE: Muscovado sugar has 11 calories/ 4 grams (approx. 1 tsp). When
produced under regulated conditions, it is nutritionally richer than
other brown sugars or refined sugar, and retains most of the natural
minerals inherent in sugarcane juice.
Grease 3 loaf pans, each about 8 1/2x4 1/2x 2 1/2" and set aside in a
warm place. Sift the flour and salt together in a lg bowl and warm
slightly to take off the chill.
Sprinkle the dried yeast over 2/3C/150ml water. After a couple of
minutes stir in the sugar. Leave for 10 min.
Make a well in the center of the flour and stir in the yeast mixture
and remaining water. The dough should be slippery. Mix for about 1
min, working the sides into the middle.
Divide among the pans, cover with oiled clear plastic wrap and leave
in a warm place, for 30 min, or until the dough had risen by about a
third to within 1/2"/1cm of the top of the pans.
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400F/200C. Bake for 40 min, or until
the loaves are crisp and sound hollow when tapped on the base. Turn
out onto a wire rack to cool.
