It was quite late in the night when I finally managed to drop in my ingrediants.. I also included DH for this so that he also remain excited.. though I was very scared of the loaf getting spoiled

Ard 1 am (I had set the alaram to wake up ) my virgin loaf was finally ready see the picture

We had it in our breakfast it tastes yummy but the amount of salt was less actually I purposely put less and I put olive oil instead of butter


I found the slices too big though

Welcome to the bread club. The bread looks good! I'm sure you didn't buy the Z machine. The loaf doesn't look like a Z loaf. Could it possibly be a Severin? I don't know. Maybe twinklejoy can idenitfy it.

Hi,


Just finish reading my baking science notes about vitamin C and I got these :

Ascorbic acid (vitamin C)
It has been extablished from many experiments that the addition of a small amount (up to 100ppm) of vitamin C also shortens the time needed for the dough to mature. This is because ascorbic acid catalyses the gluten crosslinking reactions to form a more extensible, elastic, strong network.

And it serves as preservative.
I didn't find anything about vit C gives a boost to fermentation :?

Thanks Peterch.
interesting.

:thankyou: Happy Mama, Schweppes, Twinklejoy, peterch, 25hourmaid, LKVM and jtoh :love: :love:


Your well wishes have boosted my confidence even higher.

peterch,

Thanks for your feedback. Appreciate it :celebrate:

I didn't save the web sites that I had surfed on Vit C 'cept this. Its under the heading entitled Ingredients.

It is definitely not Z bread cos it looks too big.

So is it Severin or Princess or ?? :?
