How can I make sense of this coconut bread recipe?
ok…re-reading the recipe, a few important steps are not clear. So here’s my interpretation of her recipe. 1.Heat 150ml of milk. Let it cool down to lukewarm (it should feel just a bit warm if you dip in a finger, not hot, or you may prematurely kill the yeast). Mix in 1 teaspoon of dry yeast and 40g of sugar. 2.Mix together 280g of all purpose flour [since she says she ran out of bread flour], 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 beaten egg. (Note: personally I’d mix the flour and salt (dry ingredients), and egg and milk (wet), then combine.) 3.Combine all of the above. Knead to form a dough. 4. Blend in 40g of softened butter into the dough in small pieces, kneading well until you have a smooth, pliable dough. (Of course you could do all of the steps up to this point with a bread machine.) 5. Make a smooth ball with the dough. Put into a lightly buttered or greased bowl, cover with cling film (plastic wrap) and leave in a warm place until it has doubled in bulk, about 45 minutes to an hour dep
