Bread has served as one of the most basic, yet essential, foodstuffs man has ever known. For centuries, even before yeast and the leavening process were discovered, bread was a large part of the diet of people of almost every civilization. It is believed that the first bread was eaten as far back as the Neolithic Era, when, through the serendipity of a happy accident, a caveman cooked water and cereal grains together. Yet this seemingly inconsequential find, a simple crust of bread, would forever change how a people survive vicious, cold winters without growing crops or animals to hunt. And bread is still one of the most widely consumed foods in the world today. As modern as we are, we still depend on bread and foods derived from bread for our daily sustenance.
In this free video series, our expert will take a basic bread recipe and turn it into a holiday treat by making braided bread in the shape of a wreath. You will get step by step instructions for activating the yeast, mixing the flour, sugar, oil and eggs, and creating the dough. You will also get tips on how to let the dough rise and then roll it into ropes for shaping. This braided bread shaped like a wreath is perfect for a holiday dinner or any occasion.
