Recipe:
In a large bowl, mix 4 teaspoons of sugar with 2.5 cups of warm water.
Add 3 tablespoons of yeast, mix and wait a couple of minutes until it goes frothy.
Add 6 cups of flour and 4 teaspoons of salt and mix to combine.
Turn onto the benchtop and knead for a few minutes until thoroughly combined and dough is slightly spongy, adding a bit more flour if needed.
Put back in the bowl, cover and leave in a warm place for 30 minutes.
Turn out and give another quick knead, roll out onto benchtop and form breadroll shapes as demonstrated (sorry I just don’t know how to describe how I did it!)
Cover with a tea towel and leave them for another 30 minutes in a warm place.
Brush with either an eggwash or milk, add topping if you like (I used cheese and rolled oats), make slits on the top with a bread knife and bake in a preheated oven at 190oC for 20-25 minutes.
Leave them to cool slightly before cutting into or they will be slightly doughy!

hereshining on it and it’s nice soi’m just going to cover them up leavethem for about another 20 minutes tohalf an hourand we’ll see you back here[Music]for the chaos here i’ll just be makingmuffins at the same time howeverlet’s be moving these around so theystay on the side look at themare they looking beautiful now to dothis you can either useegg with a bit of water or i just use abit of milkand what it does is it just gives them areally really nice sort ofnice sort of brownish crust i put thatoven up to about 190 degrees celsiuswhich is about 375 fahrenheitjust gonna give these a nice brush andit also means you can sprinkle stuff ontoplike i i like to make them look a bitlike subwayyou can put like rolled oats on top ofthem or sprinkle a bit of cheeseinteresting factoid when you go tosubwayand they give you those that you knowthey wrap the wrap the bread rolls andthose big wrappersyou can reuse them because they’re justlike wax waxy paperthere’s no reason you can’t bring themhome give them a bit of a whineand reuse them and you send the kidsto school with one of thesewrapped up like subway and they will bea legend in their own classroomand i mean there’s no reason youcouldn’tyou couldn’t swap it out for a wholemeal flour oreven if you wanted to like mix in somechia seeds or something with the loavesi’m just sprinklingsome rolled oats on top of some of thesemake them look fancy remember anyany kind of seeds or whatever this isjust a really nice cheap option formaking it look fancy as rolled oats alsobefore i put the cheese on i’m gonnaget a knife and just very very slightlyput a few slits in now not only doesthisactually make it look pretty butthey will rise up a little bit more asthey’re baking so it just gives them anice littlea thing to rise around i suppose itdoesn’t it doesn’t go splitting ithalfway through oryou know just gives it a bit of givesthe bread a bit of relief i supposegives it a place to rise frombut maybe it looks prettywho doesn’t love a cheesy bread roll ohyeahi’m going to chuck them in the oven forbetween20 to 25 minutes just keep checking theyou know check them after about 20minutes and see if they look done i’llumi’ll show you what the indicator is totell if they’ve done itcheck those out don’tput your head in the oven little testyou dojust grab one tap it on the bottomif it sounds like it’s hollow on theinside like that one didthey cooked so now’s the hard bit we’lljust leave themleave them to cool down just for alittle bit because otherwise they’ll belike really really doughyin the middle if you cut into themstraight away so just let them cool fora little bitwhile you get all your fillings readyand then we’re going to pouncei’m going to slice these over i’m goingto do a subway styleokay just put this one slightly on anangle like they doplease can i slice minelook at that that is still nice and warmnow these sandwiches have beenprofessionally constructed um are youguys going to bedining in or taking awaydining you’re going to dine it so yeahas i say clint actually went into subwayand asked them get off the store you’retoo cool and asked him if he could havesome of the wrappers and they just gavehim the whole heapcomplete with the stickers on them andeverything soso let’s see they usually start from thecorner don’t they like[Applause]our first ordernow this yeast by the way if anyone ummakes my no need bread recipei’ve actually found with this yeast itdoes help ifit’s if i mean if it’s working fine thengreatstick with what you’re doing if not itdoes help just to adda little teaspoon of sugar and with thisbecause sugar and yeast are like bestmates they helpthe the yeast kind of feeds off thesugar soyou know if you do if you do use mybread recipeand you find it’s a little bit on thedense side whichsometimes sometimes i did sometimes ididn’t but once i switched to this yeasti actually found i’d start doing thingsa little bit differently i add a littleteaspoon of sugarin with the yeast at the start and iactually don’t add the sultan straightaway with the yeast because yeast andsalt often don’t act nicely togetherso i often add the sultan just after theflour so here you go justa quick tip[Music]you
