How do I get my french bread to turn out right?
I have made french bread using dough I made in my bread maker and after being baked the bread is turning out dense and chewy. What can I do to correct this problem?
Use your bread machine to just make the dough. Then bake it in the oven. You let it rise a little longer so it gets a bit bigger than double in size. Put a pan of water in the bottom of the oven while it rises. When the dough has risen slash it several times across the top. Spray it with cold water. Pop it in the oven at 375 degrees F. and bake for 25 minutes. Spray it with more water every 10 minutes. French bread needs more moisture. Here is a good recipe for French Bread.
French Bread
Large Loaf
1 1/2 C. water
1 1/2 tsp. Salt
2 Tbsp. Sugar
4 C. Flour
1 1/4 tsp. Yeast
If wanting to bake in Oven. Shape dough into a long French
bread shape and place on cookie sheet and let riee till double
in size.About 45 min. I place the pan on the stove top with the
oven on and cover with tea towel. It rises well thgere. When it
has risen put a few slash marks on it with knife across the
width not the length. Pop in 375 F. oven on middle rack and
bake 20 to 25 Min. till golden brown and sounds hollow when
tapped.
