Homemade Sandwich Bread (Pain De Mie) | Chef Jean-Pierre
Ingredients
- Bread flour3 ½ cups
- Yeast2 tsp
- Sugar2 tbsp
- Butter2 oz
- Salt1 ½ tsp
- Milk3 oz
- Olive oil2 tsp
Instructions
- Stir the warm water with the yeast in a small bowl and leave it for 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, butter and warm milk. Add the yeast mixture and stir with a spatula until a rough dough forms, then add the salt and mix until fully combined.
- Knead the dough briefly on a lightly floured surface into a rough ball. Put it in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place (80–90°F) until doubled, about 1 to 1.5 hours.
- Lightly oil your hands and shape the risen dough into a rectangle, roll it into a log and pinch the seams shut. Put it in a greased loaf pan, cover, and let it rise until just below the pan's rim, about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until golden brown. Cool in the pan for 5 to 10 minutes, then move to a wire rack and let cool completely, at least 2 hours, before slicing.
