my last day of 少奶奶

Tomorrow will be my first day of work in Seattle! New job, new place, new people!

Today I was busy wrapping up all the remaining task on my list. Did a test run for the invitation insert, met the printer and gave her the paper, did some more housework, cooked the dinner and even baked tomorrow breakfast!

1/ 提子乾我先用水浸軟，順便排走些糖份，再要印乾水份。

2/ 預熱時，我放了一盆水在焗爐底部，以便產生蒸氣。

Raisin Bread

4 servings
recipes revised from // 天然、無添加的手作麵包

Bread flour // 300g
Active dry yeast // 3g
Sugar // 3g
Salt // 6g
Ice water // 180g
Butter // 6g
Raisins // 75g

1. In a large bowl, combine everything except butter and raisins. Beat until well blended using a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment. Add in butter and knead until dough is smooth and elastic. Mix in raisins. Shape into a ball. Place dough in a greased bowl. Cover, and let rise in a warm place for 60 minutes (2.5~3 times larger in size).

2. Divide in the dough into 3 balls. Let rest for 20 minutes.

3. Flat each dough (using hand) into long strip and roll it up to form a loaf. Using the three long pieces of dough, form a loosely braided strip. Seal the ends underneath.

4. Let rise for 50 minutes or until 1.5~2 times larger in size. Brush egg white wash on the top.

5. Bake 200C/390F for 25 minutes with stream.


* notes *
1/ I soaped the raisins in water to release some of the sweetness. Pad dry.

2/ Streaming: I place a bowl of water at the bottom of the oven when preheating.
