Ingreadients

1/8 cup of water

1 cup whole milk

2 ts of yeast

1 tbs sugar

1 tbs melted unsalted butter

1/2 tbs salt

3 cups of bread flour

In a bowl, combine the water and 1/4 cup (2 fl oz?60 ml) of the milk. Sprinkle the yeast and the pinch of sugar over the liquid and stir to dissolve. Let stand until foamy about 10mins.

In the bread machine, combine the remaining milk, the butter, the 1 tablespoon sugar, salt and 1 cup (10oz/315g) of the flour. Select the large basic white bread loaf option. Let the bread machine beat for about one minute. Use a spoon to help mix the flour mixture until creamy. Add the yeast mixtuer and 1/2 cup of the flour (5oz/155g) and let mix for about 1 minute useing a spoon to help mix the flour mixture. Add the remaining flour 1/4 cup or so at a time, again useing a spoon to help mix the flour mixture. Mix until doe pulls away from the sides of the canister, again use a spoon to help mix the flour mixture. at this point you will hold  the spoon towards the bottom along the side in the canister of the bread machine blocking the doe from spining around in the canister letting the paddle do a better job kneeding. Add the remaining flour 1 tablespoon at a time until the dough sticks. The doe should be smooth and elastic roughly about 5 minutes. use the spoon to help mix the mixture at all times of this process, that will ensure adaquate mixing. If your finding crumbleing pieces of flour at the bottom corners of the bread machine canister use your spoon and push the doe down into the corner of the bread machine canister. If you need to, add a small spoon full of water at a time until the doe becomes sloppy, the crumbs should mix into the doe. Then add very small amounts of flour until the doe become the right consistency again. Your spoon will help you with this. Then let the bread machine finish the job. You just created the absolute best loaf of bread machine bread. If you tell someone that use’s a bread machine that you made this loaf in one. After they taste the bread it is very possible they will not belive you.
