BASIC WHEAT BREAD

6 cups Hot Water
10 cups Prairie Gold hard white wheat
2 Tbsp. Salt
2/3 cup Oil
2/3 cup Honey
3 Tbsp. Dough Enhancer
3 Tbsp. Gluten
3 Tbsp. Saf instant yeast
2 cups Wheat Montana Natural White flour (optional)
4 - 6 cups additional cups whole grain flour

1. Mix all ingredients, except yeast and additional flour, on low speed.
2. Add yeast and additional cups of whole wheat flour until the

Mixture cleans the side of the bowl.

1. Turn machine off and let dough rest for 10 minutes. Then turn to speed 2 and let machine knead for 6-8 minutes.
2. With oiled hands, pinch off amounts of dough for one loaf, spank out any excess air bubbles and tuck/roll smooth side up into sprayed pan. Bread should then rise for 20-30 minutes or until an indentation pressed into side of the loaf remains.
3. Bake for 25-35 minutes at 350 degrees or until loaf is browned and pops out of pan easily. Remove from pans immediately and put of racks to cool.

Embellishing
The “glue” for embellishing (or sticking garnished) to the surface of breads is normally a mixture of egg white and water. Separate an egg, stir in 2 teaspoons water, mix well then apply mixture to bread surface with a pastry brush. Sprinkle on desired toppings. Let rise and bake.
