White yeast bread





Makes 2 x 900g/2lb loaves











Preparation time 30 mins to 1 hour





Cooking time 30 mins to 1 hour




















You can make a delicious light brown yeast bread by using 110g/4oz of rice bran and 150g/5oz rice flour instead of the 250g/9oz rice flour in this recipe.


Ingredients


250g/9oz rice flour


110g/4oz fine cornmeal


50g/2oz dried milk powder


2陆 teaspoons xanthan gum


1 rounded tsp salt


3 eggs, preferably free-range


40g/1陆oz caster sugar


600ml/1 pint tepid water


40g/1陆oz fresh yeast


2 x 900g/2lb loaf tins, lined with parchment paper











Method


1. Place the rice flour, fine cornmeal, dried milk powder, xanthan gum and salt into the bowl of a food mixer and mix well using the paddle attachment. (Gluten-free flours are very fine and need to be very well blended before any liquid is added. The ingredients should all be at room temperature.)


2. Whisk the eggs and slowly add to the dry ingredients. Continue to beat for a few minutes on a medium speed.


3. Dissolve the sugar in 150ml/录 pint of the tepid water in a small bowl and crumble in the fresh yeast. Sit the bowl in a warm place to allow the yeast to work. After four or five minutes it should have a creamy, slightly frothy appearance. Stir and add it gradually, along with the remaining tepid water, into the mixer bowl. Beat well for about 10 minutes. The consistency of the mixture would be too wet to knead by hand.


4. Spoon the mixture into the lined loaf tins and cover with a clean, slightly damp tea towel to prevent a skin forming. Leave to rise.


5. Preheat the oven to 190C/375F/Gas 5.


6. Just before the bread reaches the top of the tin (about 20 minutes, depending upon the temperature of the kitchen), remove the tea towel and pop both tins into the fully heated oven. Bake in the oven for 55-60 minutes or until the loaves look nicely browned and sound hollow when tapped. Remove from the tins about 10 minutes before the end of the cooking and put them back into the oven if you like your bread crisp all round. Leave to cool on a wire rack.Looking for good gluten-free bread recipes?

Try Bob's Red Mill products. I have not tried the gluten free mix that is available but all the other mixes from them that I have tried are very good. You might want to check their website for more info.
glutenfree.com is a good site. I don't think there is such a thing as tasty gluten free bread, I haven't had any and have tried many, including home made.
M y baker does gluten free, but I realise that doesn't help. Try Terence Stamp's books with brilliant recipes (ex-actor).
