Wheat-flavored old-fashioned bread

Overview

This is the most frequently served bread in my family. The recipe comes from the Internet baking expert Love and Freedom. It is said that the authentic formula costs 5,000 oceans. It is really difficult for teachers Ai and Zi to reveal the secret. Although I still don’t know why it is called Lao, it is indeed very delicious. Of course, as I said before, delicious food is unhealthy, and this bread is a bit high in oil and sugar. What to do, find a way to neutralize it! I made a few changes: First, use milk instead of water, so milk powder is not used, and the bread is softer and full of milk flavor; second, use whole wheat flour to replace part of the low-gluten flour to balance the high oil and sugar, making the bread more nutritious. It can also alleviate the guilt of satisfying your cravings. Therefore, it is called wheat fragrance.

  10. Roll the dough into a round shape and put it into a basin for fermentation. Let it ferment until it is 2-2.5 times in size. Use a finger dipped in flour to poke a hole from the top. If the hole does not shrink and the dough does not collapse (as shown in the picture), the fermentation is just right;
