Plain White rolls - no fuss

I have occasionally used a vitamin C tablet,  to see what it will do.  Can't see that I makes a lot of difference.

i am sure that the premixed bread flour have the same Ingredients in them

Probably uni... In france i only ever used milled flour from local mill no additives and fresh bakers yeast....

[goldfish]

Whats in it??

Frozzie - I've had a packet here for a while - but having said that, I've only ever used it once. The ingredients read: Wheat flour, soya flour, Emulsifier (480), Ascorbic acid,  Mineral salt (516),  Enzyme.

Just in case you missed previous page

Chookie do I need to use the sugar?? The bakers flour I use doesn't have anything added.

The yeast works better if a little sugar is added,  however I don't like sweetbread,  so add as little as possible.  I also mostly use a Laucke crusty white mix, I add no sugar to this as it has a little already added.

Thanks Chookie xx

chickie i normally dont add any sugar when i do this dough, but lately i have ,only because i have been  using only 1/8 of a teaspoon of yeast

[Chickie]

How much sugar have you been adding uni? I didn't add any at all in my last batch and they didn't get quite as fluffy but still OK.

[fundj&e]

1 teaspoon of sugar and 1/8 teaspoon of yeast for this loaf chickie and only one rise

do u use bread improver ?

Love the experiments you are doing with your bread Uni, quite successfully too by the looks of it.  Is there any reason you want to cut down on the yeast or is it just so that you can leave the dough overnight and bake first thing in the morning?
