EASY WHITE SANDWICH BREAD

Steps:

• Add the water, yeast and honey to the bowl of your stand mixer and mix with a fork just until the yeast is moistened and the honey is dissolved.
• Let sit for about 4-5 minutes.
• Add the flour to the bowl of the stand mixer on top of the water and yeast mixture and then add the salt.
• Turn the mixer on low speed and mix until a soft dough forms.
• Continue mixing on medium-low speed and let the mixer knead the dough for about 4 minutes. The dough should have formed a soft ball and the sides of the bow should be clean. Only if the dough is too wet and sticking to the side of the bowl, add a tablespoon or two more flour as it kneads.
• Shape the dough with your hands into a ball and place it back into the bowl (oil the bowl, if you wish). Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rise for 60 minutes in a warm, draft-free place.
• Grease 2 loaf pans with butter or a high-quality non-stick baking spray.
• After the dough rises, punch it down and turn it out onto a floured work surface and divide it in half.
• Roll each piece of dough into a ball with your hands, eventually shaping it into an oblong round shape.
• Place each piece of dough into one of the greased loaf pans and cover the pans with a clean kitchen towel.
• Let them rise again in a warm, draft-free place for about 20 minutes.
• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Whisk together the egg and water to make the egg wash (if using).
• Brush the egg wash over the tops of the loaves and bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 25-35 minutes until the tops of the loaves are a deep golden brown colour.
• After baking, remove from the pans and place the loaves on a wire rack to cool completely.
• Slice after the loaves have cooled completely to room temperature and use to make your favourite sandwiches or serve alongside soups or stews.

SIMPLE WHITE BREAD

Steps:

• In a measuring cup, combine the sugar and yeast to 1 cup of lukewarm water, stirring until combined. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the flour and salt.
• Pour the yeast mixture into the bowl and combine all the ingredients.
• Sprinkle 1-2 tablespoons of flour onto your work surface and knead the dough for a few minutes, or until smooth and elastic.
• Store the dough in a sealable plastic bag that has been drizzled in olive oil, making sure the dough is completely covered in the oil. Keep the dough in the refrigerator overnight.
• WHEN YOU ARE READY* to bake the bread, remove the dough from the refrigerator. Leave the dough in the plastic zipped bag,and let it come to room temperature (about an hour). *This can sit in your fridge for SEVERAL days!!
• Prepare a loaf pan with nonstick spray.
• Sprinkle 1-2 tablespoons of flour on your work surface, take the dough out of the bag, and knead and fold the dough for about 1 minute.
• Form a log with the dough that will fit in your prepared loaf pan. Cover the pan with the plastic bag and let it rise until is has at least doubled in size (about 2 hours).
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350°F.
• After the dough has risen, remove the plastic covering and slash the top of the dough with a sharp knife.
• Bake for 35-40 minutes at 350°F, or until the internal temperature is 190-210°F. Let it cool completely before slicing.
