Title: Irish Yeast Bread Mix
Categories: Breads
Yield: 2 loaf
Mix
8 c Flour
1 1/2 c Sugar
4 ts Salt
2 ts Allspice
2/3 c Instant nonfat milk
Zest from 1 lemon
For 1 loaf:
4 c Mix
2 pk Dry yeast
1 c Warm water
1/2 c Milk
1/3 c Soft butter
1/2 c Each currants and raisins
More flour if necessary
To make mix, combine all ingredients in plastic bag
except lemon zest. Add zest and shake bag well. Seal
and set aside until needed. To make 1 loaf: sprinkle
yeast over warm water and let foam for 5 minutes.
Place 2 cups of well shaken mix into a large bowl with
the milk, butter and yeat mixture and beat with an
electric mixer until well blended. Cover bowl and let
mixture rise in a warm place for 30 minutes. Then
place two more cups of mix onto the surface of dough
in bowl. Beat until well blended again with mixer or
by hand. Place a little flour on work surface and mix
in the raisins and currants. Incorporate this into the
dough and knead until smooth and elastic, adding
additional flour to make a fairly stiff but pliable
dough. Place dough in a large grerased bowl and turn
to coat. Cover and let dough rise double in bulk,
about 1 to 2 hours. Punch down and knead into a round
loaf. Place on baking sheet and allow to rise double
in bulk. Bake in a 350 oven until done, about 50
minutes. Makes 1 large loaf.
