Ingredients
Preparation
Combine water, butter, honey, salt, gluten, dough enhancer, and half flour in bread maker. (Gluten and dough enhancer may be reduced or eliminated if yeast and flour is very potent.)
Mix ingredients while slowly adding yeast until there are no lumps (use a spatala to help incorporate the ingredients.)
Pause and let set for 2 minutes while flour absorbs the water (very important.)
Continue to mix, adding flour 1/4 cup at a time, until dough no longer sticks to spatala.
After dough has doubled in size (approximately 30 minutes,) bake for approximately 50 minutes adjusting the time for the individual bread machine characteristics. Alternatively, place in bread pan and bake in oven pre-heated to 350F for 30 to 45 minutes.
Remove bread and place on cooling rack to prevent "sweating."
When using Golden Wheat instead of Hard Winter Wheat the amount of flour required is less by about a 1/2 cup.
Omit first rise cycle if dough is slow to rise, which may be the case with some of the Hard Wheats.
