AGEGE BREAD RECIPE ( AFRICAN BREAD)

As I was writing before I digressed, I am making this post today because among those food groups I belong there has been a thing' going about Agege bread and it was evident so lots of folks wanted the recipe. Like I have this instrument it might be a sin if I do not share this understanding with you my subscribers as well as them. So here I'm giving you the recipe for tender, fluffy, stretchy, elastic bread that Agege bread is well known for.

It is common knowledge that Agege bread includes additives such as potassium bromate along with other compounds to boost bread and those additives aren't that healthy. What I've done is to substitute these substances with organic bread improvers like tangzhong and milk (tried, tested, and reliable ). By now you are probably thinking enough of the story and chemistry only gives us this recipe! Lol. . Well, I will save the chemistry here you go.

Ingredients

For the Main Dough:-

• 350 gr Bread Flour/Plain flour (bread flour creates a chewy bread)
• 30 gr Bread Flour/Plain flour (for instance )
• 50 gr Sugar- 1 tsp Salt
• 7 gr minute dry Yeast(2 &1/2 tsp )
• 140 ml lukewarm Water/Whole Milk, fix as necessary
• 200g tangzhong (Learn below the way to make tangzhong)

For the Scalded flour Dough enhancer:-

• 100 gr Bread Flour/Plain flour
• 100 ml of boiling water

Tools:

• 2 bowls
• A bread pan
• A plastic dough scraper

How to make tangzhong:

50g (1/3 cup) bread flour

250ml (1 cup) water

Mix flour in water and stir well so that you do not have some bulge. Cook medium-low heat, stir regularly using a spoon or whisk to stop the mixture from sticking and burning as you cook it.

The mixture will get thicker and thinner. As soon as you detect lines begin to appear from the mixture for each stir fry you make using the spoon that the tangzhong is prepared or in case you've got a thermometer use it in order to check the temperature. When it is 65degrees it is completed. Eliminate it from heat.

Pour this mixture into a bowl and cover with a cling film sticking on the tangzhong. Leave to cool to room temperature.

HOW TO MAKE AGEGE BREAD (NIGERIAN BREAD)

In a mixing bowl blend the flour, sugar, and salt.

In another bowl set the water, 1 tsp of yeast, and sugar and whisk. Leave the mixture for 5-10 minutes until the yeast foams.

Activated yeast 

whisk together the milk in another bowl,  sunflower oil and tangzhong(all) 

Create a well in the middle of the flour and put in the yeast mixture and milk mixture. Continue mixing till the dough comes together. Keep kneading until the dough is smooth.

Note: The dough will be moist and tacky at first but once you knead and knead well it will become elastic. A function that arm????

It shouldn't be too tacky on the surface. I kneaded the dough for approximately 50 minutes by hand. Trust me you want the most powerful person in your home for this particular undertaking. 

If you are blessed to have a mixer, then use the dough hook and knead to it or a food processor that's that purpose. This may take approximately 15-20 minutes. Rest the chip at times. 

You want a floured surface since the dough will be moist and sticky in the beginning.

Once the dough is prepared, you need to have the ability to bring a bit of it and extend into a very lean tissue before it breaks along with the rest should be out of a circle (Window test).

 

FIRST PROOFING AGEGE BREAD

Knead the dough into a ball shape. Grease a bowl with oil, then put the dough into the greased bowl and cover with a moist towel. Leave the dough until it is doubled in size. This takes approximately 50 minutes.

Punch down the dough and set on a flat floured surface and divide into 5 parts. Knead into chunks. Cover it very well, and let it rest for about 4 to 5 minutes.

Form and place all the rolls into the greased bread pan, cover with all the moist towel, and let them rise until twice the dimensions. This will take up to another fifty minutes or so.

Bake bread in a preheated oven and bake at 180 degrees Centigrade (370F) for thirty minutes. Preheat for 5 minutes. Following the 1st 15minutes baste the bread for a glistening glaze. You can skip this section if you prefer.

Assess the images below, the loaf on the best was not basted.

That is the bread completed. The look, the smell, the feel, and the flavor is unquestionably Agege bread such as!

Take the bread from the pan and place it onto a cooling rack to cool.

Unlike lots of homemade loaves of bread that this bread stays soft and fluffy for days not only when it is from the oven! Adhere to the dimensions very carefully and stick to the recipe and you may also open Agege bread bakery into your house...Your bread is going to be that simple'. .lol.
