Do you use bread machine mixes when you want to make yeast bread in your automated bread-making machine? If you do, why do you? Because it’s easier? It is so simple to make gourmet bread quickly from easy-to-follow bread recipes and so much more variable too. If you use bread machine mixes you are limited to the bread machine mixes there are in the shops ” no matter how many of them there are there.

On the other hand, a good bread machine recipe cookbook is infinitely more flexible than bread machine mixes. A good bread machine recipe book will provide you with 150 or more recipes originating from several countries, but it will also inspire you to adapt those recipes, inspiring you to be creative and invent your own style of bread.

Bread machine mixes are really quite restricting and you have no control about what goes into the bread machine mix either: preservatives, colouring, MSG, salt or Heaven knows what. OK, it says on the label, but you cant take them out, if you only use bread machine mixes.

Making bread is really very simple. Or to put it correctly, the ingredients to making bread are really quite simple. To make a very basic loaf of bread, you only need: flour, water, yeast, sugar, salt and fat or oil. The hard part about making bread is the mixing. It can take five hours to mix the bread mixture together; to wait for it to rise; to knead it; wait for it to prove; knead it again and bake it.

But, if you have a bread making machine you can put the hard bread mixing, proving, kneading cycle on automatic and if you have a bread-making recipe book you will be funished with numerous recipes to guide and encourage you.

What could be more simple? You consult the bread-making machine recipe book for an appealing recipe; you put the household ingredients into the bread mixing bowl of the bread machine and you put the yeast into a time-released capsule on the top of the bread machine; set the timer and just go about your daily routine or even go to bed!

The bread making machine will stir the ingredients and consult the timer. Our bread-making machine has a timer that can be set for sixteen-hours in advance. That means that, if you want your gourmet, yeast bread ready for, say, 7:30 AM, the bread-making machine will mix the flour, water, salt oil and sugar at once, then add the yeast at say, 5 AM, knead, prove and bake the bread and ring the alarm at 7:30 to let you know that your gourmet food is waiting for you.

Except that you won’t need the alarm to let you know that. The aroma of freshly-baked bread will permeate your house and you will be very much aware of the fact that your bread making machine is just about ready to serve one of the best loaves of bread you’ve ever had in your life! And you will never ever look for bread machine mixes again. You’ll be overflowing with ideas for your own bread machine mixes in no time at all and you’ll be giving bread away as presents so that you can try out your next very own bread machine mixture.
