        Normally how long can yr loaf of bread last? Mine only last 3 days after that will turn mouldy. So need to make bread twice a week in order to have bread everyday. Time is what I donโ€™t have. Not sure why gardenia bread or sunshine bread can last 5 to 6 days without turning mouldy.

          Theirs probably include a lot of preservative to absorb moisture and prevent it from turning mouldy. Mine doesn't turn mouldy after 3 days if I keep it in a dry place or inside the fridge but the texture will not be as soft as the first day of course.

              You might want to try the method a friend taught me. Let the bread cool down and cut into slices. Freeze excess pieces in a zipblog bag. Take out the amount you need to defrost the night before, and in the morning, the defrosted bread would still be nice, soft and fresh tasting. If you like, you can also steam the bread. I use a steam oven, so it's very convenient. Give it a try and see if it works for you ๐Ÿ˜„

                  I usually finish my frozen bread within 5 days. I think itโ€™s beat consumed within 2 weeks. I used to keep the bread in the fridge and it becomes dry after a couple of days. Defrosted frozen bread tastes better ๐Ÿ™‚

                    Hi everyone,


                    OG is having a sale now and the Kukeri breadmaker is going for $69 only. 50 sets per store. I was told this is a Taiwan brand. Not sure how good it is as I am using a Z machine. You may wish to check it out if you are considering buying a breadmaker.

                    http://www.og.com.sg/2012weeklyHighlight_120913.html?id=main

                    Anyone use this Kukeri brand before ? Would appreciate your feedback ...

                    TIA


                    I bought this BM on Friday, used dough function on Sat and when I tried to mk a loaf on Sunday, the BM does not move at all!!
                    :stompfeet:
                    A Friend's friend set also has the same problem!

                      I have this recipe originally from my old z machine but I've modified it alittle and it works with all breadmachine. Put the ingredients according to the sequence of your machine.
                      This is a sweet bun recipe for dough setting only.
                      300ml water or UHT milk (always use UHT, if using fresh milk, pls heat up first then cool to use)
                      4 tbsp sugar
                      1 tsp salt
                      50g butter, unsalted (if salted, pls omit salt)
                      3 1/2 cups Bread flour
                      3 tbsp non fat milk powder (eg. anlene or equivalent, omit if using liquid milk)
                      1 tsp yeast
                      Remove from pan, round, rest 10mins, divide, round, rest 10 mins and shape. Let it prove for another 1hr or when dough becomes 2x it's size. Bake in oven 200 C for 12 mins.
                      Dasalo, I tried your recipe last thur, it's really good, thanks! I was making the dough just now using your recipe, half way then realize not enough bread flour so I substitute a little more than half cup with cake flour. Hope it turns out ok. I also added Chia seeds into the bread dough. It's now in my bowl proofing. ๐Ÿ˜„

                        You can add plain flour/multi purpose flour to the bread flour. Cake flour shouldn't be a problem too since I notice you incorporate that into your recipe. You can actually use a ratio of 3:7 ie. 30% plain flour or cake flour (in your case) and 70% Bread flour. The bread will still rise nicely, except not so chewy esp. if you like soft bread. You can add all kinds of seeds (mix your own multi grain, soy grit, pumpkin, sunflower, nuts, etc..)before adding yeast. I usually add about 2 tbsps, if you add more, you'll have to adjust the water accordingly during the mixing period. Dough will need to feel like you're touching a baby's bum.

                        I mix my flour all the time before and even so now as the price of bread flour has gone sky high, I used to pay $22 for a 25Kg pack of Prima bread flour back before the start of price increment in flour and butter. Now it is $40-50 (can't remember) now. Ironically, now I'm into artistic bread and requires very strong flour for chewy and hard crust and it's pricy. I'm still experimenting with home made live cultures (levain). Very time consuming project..haha..

                        Flower, go buy a piece of walnut bread at Maison Kayser at Scotts Sq, you'll fall in love with it if you like walnut bread. It's pricy, 3.70 for a bun size bread but WTH, buy,eat and learn to make it ourselves. :evil:
