Recipe
White bread dough 10ml/2 tsp dried yeast (the type that requires reconstituting) 5ml/1 tsp sugar 260ml warm water 450g bread flour 5ml/1 tsp salt 15g lard

1. Place the dried yeast, with the sugar and water, in a mixing bowl and leave to froth. The correct water temperature should be 43°C and can be achieved by mixing one-third boiling water with two-thirds cold water.
2. Add the remaining ingredients. Fit the kneaders to the hand mixer, then combine the ingredients together on a low speed until the flour is incorporated. Then increase the speed and knead for approximately 2-3 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic. Cover with oiled cling film and leave the dough to rise in a warm place for 45-60 minutes.
3. Re-knead the dough on maximum speed for 30-45 seconds, keeping the kneaders in the mix.
4. Shape the dough into a loaf, or rolls, and place on greased baking trays. Cover with oiled cling film and leave somewhere warm until it has doubled in size.
5. Bake in a preheated oven at 230°C/450°F/Gas mark 8 for 20-25 minutes (for a loaf) or 10-15 minutes (for rolls). When ready, the dough should sound hollow when tapped on the base.
