Homemade Plain Bread without Yeast

 

Sometime back, I had been asked by some of my readers on how to make plain bread without yeast. I had struggled with this a few years ago and knew that there were a few things to watch out for when baking bread without yeast. Actually, what got me going was that, someone whom I thought was very knowledgeable in bread making, told me that you can’t make bread with self-raising flour. When I hear the words ‘cannot do’, “çan’t be done” or ‘impossible’ I am overcome by a chemical and biological change and my body and mind transform. It is similar to the transformation of the Incredible Hulk but not so obvious. Blood rushes to my head and steam comes out of my ears. I am overcome with a strong feeling to crack open their heads and plant an idea of what to do to make the impossible possible.

Soy lecithin granules do behave differently from lecithin capsules and raw lecithin and I would hazard a guess that it may not have any beneficial properties if you are adding it to your cornflakes or that milkshake.

Comparison of soy lecithin granules, lecithin capsules and raw lecithin – an introduction

I began to experiment with lecithin last year. I was looking for a cheap source of lecithin and found a supplier who supplied raw lecithin by the jars. It was priced at RM7 (USD$2.20) per kg and I had to buy a whole jar which was 20kg. I still have 99% of that stuff in my apartment. Then I found that lecithin was sold in capsules. This was medical grade lecithin which was priced any where from RM0.30 (USD$0.10) to RM1.00 (USD$0.30) per capsule. That worked out to be RM300 (USD$100) to RM500 (USD$156) per kg, depending upon the brand and size of the capsule. Recently, I discovered organic soy lecithin granules which cost about RM66 (USD$21) per kg. I thought I was saving big money switching to soy lecithin granules until I discovered some difficulties. Knowing me, I could not leave things alone. I had to investigate. That triggered a chain of experiments that is described below. … Continue reading “Comparison of soy lecithin granules, lecithin capsules and raw lecithin »

How to make low fat butter spread – an introduction

I have been pondering about the increase in the price of butter over the last few months. Butter prices jumped betweeen August and October 2011 by 25%. It was an overnight jump in prices. I just walked into the supermarkets one day and was shocked to see the new prices for butter. At that point I resolved to find a cheaper substitute without using margarine because I am a self confessed butter addict. Butter is simply too delicious not to be used. It improves a flavour of most recipes and has a wonderful moisturising effect and improves texture to cakes and pastries. I had to find a substitute. … Continue reading “How to make low fat butter spread »
