After making 3 basic white breads during Dec 26~29, we are testing different kind of breads, Green Tea bread and Coffee bread.
(1) Green Tea bread on Dec 30, 2009
water = 215 mL
milk powder = 58.5 g (ps. 100 mL = 35 g)
oil = 18 g (ps. Should use 2 tsp = 10 mL = 8 g, the suggested amount is 15 g butter)
salt = 4 g
sugar = 20 g (i.e. 1 TBL = 20 g)
plain flour = 294 g (ps. This is all we have)
lemon juice = 4 g
yeast = 4 g (i.e. 1 tsp)
green tea powder = 10 mL = 2 tsp (ps. the suggested amount is 10 g)
Setting: 3 (sweet), medium crust color, total 3 hours 20 min
1st knead (2 min) -> 2nd knead (23 min) ->1st rise (20 min)
-> punch down (15 sec) -> 2nd rise (50 min) -> punch down (10 sec)
-> 3rd rise (65 min) -> bake (65 min)
It tastes good, but the green tea is a little bit light. I guess we need to add 10 g green tea powder to make it more like "green tea bread".
(note) Another Tea bread recipe: use same composition as Coffee bread, except adding 10 g Green Tea powder or 2 tea bags instead of coffee powder.
(2) Coffee bread on Jan 1, 2010
water = 280 mL
instant coffee powder = 15 mL (i.e. 3 tsp)
oil = 16 g
salt = 4 g
brown sugar = 36 g (ps. 34 g should be enough)
plain flour = 450 g
milk powder = 13 g (ps. 10 g should be enough)
lemon juice = 5 g
yeast = 6 g (i.e. 1.5 tsp)
ground coffee powder = 15 g
cinnamon powder = few (ps. <<< 1 g)
Setting: 1 (basic), medium crust color, total 3 hours
1st knead (2 min) -> 2nd knead (28 min) ->1st rise (20 min)
-> punch down (15 sec) -> 2nd rise (20 min) -> punch down (10 sec)
-> 3rd rise (50 min) -> bake (60 min)
It smells good after kneading. I guess it will smell even better during baking.
