How to Make Bread

Bread is eaten in most parts of the world, but not everyone
knows how to bake it. I am going to show you how the steps
involved in baking bread.
First, measure the correct amount of flour and warm water. Next,
mix the flour and water together in a mixing bowl. Add yeast, salt
and sugar. Next, knead the mixture until it feels almost dry. Leave
the mixture for about an hour in a warm place. It will grow in size.
After this, knead the mixture again. Make sure the mixture is not
sticky when you touch it. Then leave the dough in a baking tin for
about an hour to give it time to rise. Finally, the dough is put into a
preheated oven for about forty minutes
it can be seen that making bread is not difficult as long as the
correct procedure is followed. You will love the taste and smell of
your freshly-baked bread!
