Bread Preparation Tips
You want the bread you make to look as good as it tastes. After all, it's going to be a gift. Here are some handy beauty tips:
|
Egg Wash
Brushing your loaf before it goes in the oven with an egg wash gives the crust a super shine.
|
|
Milk
A little milk brushed on the loaf before it goes into the oven results in a slighly soft or tender crust, with a somewhat dull shine.
|
|
Toppings
Brush unbaked loaves with an egg white wash and then sprinkle with poppy, caraway, or sesame seed, or basil, oregano, onion and garlic flakes.
|
|
Slashing
A 1/4-inch slash into the dough after it rises leaves an unmistakably professional impression.
