Recipe

White bread dough
10ml/2 tsp dried yeast (the type that requires reconstituting)
5ml/1 tsp sugar
250ml warm water
450g bread flour
5ml/1 tsp salt
15g lard

1. Place the dried yeast, with the sugar and water, in a mixing bowl and leave to froth. The correct water temperature should be 43°C and can be achieved by mixing one third boiling water with two thirds cold water.
2. Add the remaining ingredients. Fit the kneaders to the handmixer, then combine the ingredients together on a low speed until the flour is incorporated. Then increase the speed and knead for approximately 2-3 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic. Cover with oiled cling film and leave the dough to rise in a warm place for 45-60 minutes.
3. Re-knead the dough on maximum speed for 30-45 seconds, keeping the kneaders in the mix.
4. Shape the dough into a loaf, or rolls, and place on greased baking trays. Cover with oiled cling film and leave somewhere warm until it has doubled in size.
5. Bake in a preheated oven at 230°C/450°F/Gas mark 8 for 20-25 minutes (for a loaf) or 10-15 minutes (for rolls). When ready, the dough should sound hollow when tapped on the base.
