Classic Homemade Bread: Simple, Soft, and Delicious

Preparation

1 Dissolve the dry yeast in warm water and stir until dissolved.

2 Mix in 120 grams of flour until smooth. Gather the dough, cover, and let it rest for 15 minutes.

3 Add 400 ml of warm water, mix well, then gradually add 720 grams of flour and salt. Knead for 3-4 minutes until a soft, slightly non-sticky dough forms.

4 Cover the dough and let it ferment until it doubles in size.

5 Remove air, gather, and divide into two parts. Roll each into a ball and let rest for 10 minutes.

6 Lightly Flour the surface lightly, expand the dough with your fingers, then roll it inward.

7 Repeat with the second dough.

8 Arrange the dough on a baking tray, cover, and leave for 20 minutes.

9 Brush with a mixture of egg yolk and milk, then bake at 200°C (392°F) until golden brown, about 25-30 minutes.

Cooking Tips

 

Ensure the water is warm, not hot, to activate the yeast.
