Bread step by step
- In a mixing bowl, mix yeast and sugar with warm water. Let the yeast activate for about 10 minutes. The mixture will look foamy..
- Add the salt and oil into the activated solution..
- Add 1 cup of flour and mix using a mixer. I used a dough hook because I am using just a hand mixer..
- Add one cup of flour at a time. It will be a rough dough after the last cup..
- Dust an area of your table or counter for kneading. Transfer the dough to that dusted area and knead the dough for about 7 - 10 minutes until smooth..
- Properly grease a deep bowl. When the dough is smooth, turn it to a ball and place inside the bowl. Cover with samp cloth. Let it rise for about 1 hour..
- It will puff and almost double in size. Punch the dough and knead it again for another 1 minute..
- Cut the dough in half, turn to tuck them in and put into two loaf bread. I don't have a loaf pan so I just put each one on a tray. If you do this, make sure to leave at least 4 inches on each side of the dough..
- Cover the dough again and let it rise for another 30 - 40 minutes. While raising, preheat your oven to 190 °C..
- Once dough is ready, bake bread for 30-35 minutes..
- Cool and slice to enjoy..
