One Loaf WHITE BREAD - Bonitas Kitchen Bonitas Kitchen 2023-08-20 | Welcome to Bonita's Kitchen! Today we will be making One Loaf WHITE BREAD. Our bread today is baked on our outside grill and you can bake it in your inside oven as well!!! See recipe below!!To view & download the full recipe, please view it here on our website:bonitaskitchen.comOur cookbook link: bonitaskitchen.com/cookbookIngredients:3½ Cups White flour. 1 Tsp yeast, fast rising or traditional dry 1 Tbsp melted butter or margarine ½ Tsp Sea salt 1 Tsp sugar 1½ Cups warm water, more if neededMethod:Prep time: 10 minutes, Mixing time: 10 minutes, Rising time: 2 stages at ½ hour each, Baking time 30 to 35 minutes. Method in oven or outside grill!! Method:Combine in a large bowl: 3 cups flour, sea salt, toss together. ( Leave the ½ cup flour to mix dough together if needed )In another bowl, add dry fast rising yeast with 1½ cups warm water and 1 tsp sugar. Let rise for about 5 minutes. In another small bowl melt one tablespoons of butter. Then in flour mixture make a hole in the middle to pour your yeast mixture and butter, mixing all ingredients together with a wooden spoon or mixer with hook until it thickens, then keep adding ½ cup of flour to work dough together, plus add more warm water if needed ONLY at the mixing stage... ( If you need to add more warm water this should be done during the mixing stage.) This can be done with your hand or mixer with a hook. ( Also add raisins at this point if you like some)Knead dough, add more flour if necessary until dough is smooth, elastic and no longer sticky and you can hear cracking of the dough when folding dough. Keep working dough into a ball. When completed, sprinkle some flour over the top of the dough. I always mark the sign of a cross on top of the dough. Also cut the top of the dough like a cross, then cover with parchment paper and a towel. "Crossing your bread is optional, this is an old NL tradition." Let dough rise in a warm place for half an hour then knead it down, by deflating the dough with your hand. This is done by pushing and pulling the dough until you release the air and forms into a ball again... Prepare your bread pan, line with a piece of parchment paper and butter the sides.After your dough rises, fold into one piece forming it inwards into a long shape, then place in your bread pan. Makes 1 loaf of bread. Brush with some melted butter if you like the top to brown more. Keep covered and in a warm place until bread rises half the size you started with.Preheat the BBQ GRILL at 350ºF, then turn two buttons off if you have four. If you only have two buttons, turn one off. Place the pan on the top rack where you keep your food warm or toast bread.Lower the cover and bake bread for 15 to 20 minutes then check, make sure heat stays at 350 to 375ºf if it goes higher, lift the lid to release some heat or put a rock in the cover to keep it open a little. Then bake for another 15 minutes or until bread is 190ºf on your internal thermometer, depending on your grill it may be a little brown. Half ways though you can rub some butter on the top of the bread, when bread is baked remove from the grill and turn grill off. Take bread out of the pan and place it out on a cooling rack. Bonita’s Tips: This prevents bread from getting moist on the bottom. Brush bread with butter then cover with a towel, serve hot or cold. Freeze bread after at room temperature this will keep it fresh every time you take it out a slice. Keep in a plastic bag at room temperature to keep bread soft and fresh for up to 5 days. This dough can be baked in the oven if you like, 350ºf for 35 minutes or golden brown.Thank you for watching Bonita's Kitchen, and don't forget to subscribe for more Traditional Newfoundland Recipes and Cooking!

Let proof for five minutes.Then in a large bowl add flour, keep half cup to bring it all together. Add salt toss together, then make a hole in the middle to add 2 tbsp of warm melted butter and proofed yeast.” If you are using your standup mixer with a hook you can just add the ingredients in without making a hole. “Using a wooden spoon slowly mix the dry ingredients in with the wet ingredients to bring it all together. Dusting with more flour if needed, plus more warm water if the dough is too dry. Having the texture a little sticky at the mixing stage is good, then after you have mixed it for 5 minutes or so then add more flour to bring it together and to form a ball. After forming into a ball, rub a little melted butter over the top. I mark the sign of a cross on my dough and cut a x in the top. This is optional for you!Cover dough with a towel to keep warm and let rise for 30 minutes. I usually put the bowl in the oven with the LIGHT on only to rise with the heat of the LIGHT. After the dough is risen, remove the towel and put the dough on a cutting board. Cut it in 12 pieces. Then you will need a square pan or a pan of choice. In a measuring cup add half cup of butter and crushed garlic or garlic powder and onion powder. Melt butter for 20 seconds in the microwave or stove top. Stir the ingredients together and pour half in the bottom of the pan.Then back to the dough. Take one at a time and roll the dough outwards to form a ball. Place in the pan, then continue doing this with all the dough until finished. Then cover with a towel and let rise for 20 minutes in a warm place in your kitchen.After risen, pour the remainder of the melted butter mixture over the top of the dough and top with shredded cheese. Preheat the oven to 350ºF and put the pan in to bake for 20 to 30 minutes depending on your oven or until the internal temperature is 190ºF. Enjoy warm with your meal and reheat in the microwave if needed, or serve cold.I apologize in advance if anything in this video is not clear or misread, please follow my recipe when making this dish.

It will cook more in the casserole; drain and set aside top with a drizzle of olive oil and toss, reserve ½ cup starch water from spaghetti for adding to meat sauce.In a large frying pan, add 1 tbsp olive oil, lean ground beef, ½ tsp sea salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder. Fry for a few minutes, then add chopped onion and cook until ground beef is no longer pink. Fold in pasta sauce and starch water, cook for a few minutes more then turn off heat.In a medium bowl, add eggs and whisk together, then pour over spaghetti, add parmesan cheese and melted butter to spaghetti and continue tossing. You will need a large casserole dish or baking pan, 9 x 13 or bigger.Start layering all ingredients, first add half of the spaghetti, one cup cottage cheese, half of the meat sauce, then top with shredded mozzarella cheese, a pinch of oregano, and a few slices of peppers.Repeat!After layered, add sliced tomato and sliced peppers on top, pinch of oregano and parmesan cheese.Preheat the oven to 350ºF and bake the spaghetti casserole covered with foil wrap for 30 minutes, then uncovered for 30 minutes, longer if needed.Serve with fresh bread!Bonita’s Tips: If you use medium ground beef just drain off all oil from meat before adding onions. Seasoning the hot water with sea salt and olive oil, helps the spaghetti from sticking together and salts the spaghetti equally. 2 ounces of spaghetti per serving is the size of a quarter. You can also measure between your thumb and index finger for a serving size.I apologize in advance if anything in this video is not clear or misread, please follow my recipe when making this dish.
