Milk Bread

Also known as plain, old, white bread.  I realized they were one and the same when I made the Japanese Egg Salad Sandwich.  Had one of those ah-ha moments.  Now, I’m fortunate to have a bread maker because I certainly don’t have the time to make bread from scratch.  Once I figured out that the order is wet, dry, yeast, my breads have turned out so well.  As it was for this loaf. 

This is for a two-pound loaf

Ingredients:

1 ¼ c milk

¼ c water

2 T butter, cut up

4 c bread flour

2 T sugar

1 t salt

1 ¼ t yeast

 

Directions:

Layer the ingredients in the bread maker according to your manufacturer’s directions.  Mine calls for wet, dry, yeast.
