But sandwiches are always good if just a few simple rules are followed. THE BREAD-The bread may be of many varieties-whole wheat, graham or rye, Boston brown bread, nut, raisin or date, crackers, wafers. Sometimes cake is used. For fancy sandwiches, the bread should be cut very thin and all crust removed. Bread 24 hours old cuts best. For sub- stantial picnic or lunch sandwiches, cut the bread quite thick and make your fillings generous. When a whole loaf of bread is to be used, remove the crust with a very sharp knife, before slicing. When making rolled sandwiches, use very fresh bread and remove all crust and slice very thin. When sandwiches have been rolled, wrap in cloth wrung out of hot water and let stand in a cool place before serving.

We hope you’ll try all our breads and find your favorite! Breads Bread Care For best results, eat immediately! Because we believe in using only natural ingredients and never use artificial preservatives or dough conditioners in our breads, they require a different sort of care than chemically enhanced breads. Storage To store fresh bread, leave it at room temperature in a paper bag, or if cut, leave the cut side down on a board or shelf. Refresh Homemade On the second day, wrap the bread in plastic to maintain its freshness. To refresh the loaf, sprinkle or mist the portion you want to serve lightly with water and place it in a preheated o Artisan 400 oven for 6-8 minutes or until crusty. You may also slice and toast the bread for delicious results. Freezing Breads The bread also freezes well wrapped in plastic, then in foil.

    Try This At Home Series May 15, 2020 We Sit at the Feet of James MacGuire Mitch Stamm and James MacGuire Mitch: We speak of standing on the shoulders of those who have gone before us, but seldom do we speak about standing on the shoulders of those who are among us. Nor do we speak about sitting at their feet and listening to them. Gentleman, raconteur, and exacting baker, James MacGuire is our link to the past. We may stand on his shoulders, but when he speaks, we sit and listen with open hearts. Initially, James MacGuire’s soft spoken delivery conceals his passion, knowledge, and experience. His tell-tale word choices and sentence structure reveal a dry, sophisticated wit. Listen longer, and you realize you’re in the rarefied company of a baker/baking historian, but, not in the academic sense. James walked and baked with the giants, becoming one himself. His contributions to Bread Lines are legendary and bear witness to his story. They are laden with facts, cultural and historical relevance, and personal experience. I was part of a group that visited James in Montreal last summer. He served us homemade croissants. As you might imagine, they were excellent. Some of the details have faded from my memory, but the level of excitement and appreciation still reverberates in my mind. Buttery, flaky, and delicious, they reminded us that a croissant is about the baker; not the sheeter, blast freezer, controlled environment, ameliorants, ice packs, etc. Nothing has faded from my memory of us sitting around the kitchen table while James spoke about butter, lamination, industrial vs.

  • Quick Breads
    FN-SSB.923 Quick Breads KNEADS A LITTLE DOUGH While baking yeast bread may be intimidating to some people, there are some “quick” options to get you started in the kitchen. Muffins, coffeecakes, scones, waffles, and pancakes are all breads that can be made in a short period of time and with very little effort. The difference between yeast breads and quick breads is the leavening agent. Yeast is a living cell that multiplies rapidly when given the proper food, moisture, and warmth. It must “proof”, or rise, to allow the production of carbon dioxide that allows the bread to rise during baking. Quick breads use the chemical leavening agents of baking powder and/or baking soda. Baking powder and baking soda do not require time for rising, so the batter for quick bread is cooked immediately after mixing. The best thing about quick breads is that the options are limitless when it comes to ingredients. The limiting factor in good quick breads is the correct mixing. Over mixing or under mixing will result in a poor quality product. BASIC INGREDIENTS Different quick bread batters are created by varying the ingredients and combining them in a certain way to form the structure of the bread. The possibilities are endless, but the common factor is the basic ingredients of fat, sugar, eggs, flour, liquid, leavening agent, and a flavoring ingredient. The flavoring might be a fruit or vegetable, a liquid such as buttermilk or fruit juice, an extract, herbs, or spices. Depending how the ingredients are mixed together will determine the texture and quality.

  • Paper Title: FOOD ADDITIVES
    Paper No.: 13 Paper Title: FOOD ADDITIVES Module – 21 : Raising agents, Glazing agents and Sequesterants for the food industry 21.1 Introduction Raising agents, Glazing agents and Sequesterants have their distinct role in various food products. Important raising or leavening agents, glazing agents and sequestering agents used for the food industry are discussed in this module. 21.2 Raising agents for the food industry Raising agent or Leavening Agent is a substance used to produce or stimulate production of carbon dioxide in baked goods in order to impart a light texture, including yeast, yeast foods, and calcium salts. It is a substance or combination of substances which liberate gas and there by increased volume of a dough. Different raising agents are discussed below: 21.2.1 Calcium carbonate Calcium carbonate is a naturally occurring mineral (chalk or limestone), but the food- grade material is made by reaction of calcium hydroxide with carbon dioxide, followed by purification by flotation. It is used as a colour, a source of carbon dioxide in raising agents, an anti-caking agent, a source of calcium and a texturising agent in chewing gum. Calcium carbonate is used in chewing gum and in bread. 21.2.2 Calcium phosphates The calcium phosphates are manufactured by the reaction of hydrated lime and phosphoric acid under conditions controlled to maximize the yield of the required product. Monocalcium phosphate Monocalcium phosphate is used as a raising agent when rapid reaction with sodium bicarbonate is required. Dicalcium phosphate Dicalcium phosphate is available in both dihydrate and anhydrous forms. The dihydrate is used as a raising agent in combination with other phosphates and sodium bicarbonate.
