Breadmaker Owner’s Manual
Double Acting
Baking Powder
Baking powder is a leavening agent used in quick breads and cakes.
This type of leavening agent does not require rising time before
baking, as the chemical reaction works when liquid ingredients are
added and again when heat is applied.
Baking Soda Baking soda is another leavening agent, not to be confused or
substituted for baking powder. It also does not require rising time
before baking as the chemical reaction works during baking pro-
cess.
Measuring Your Ingredients
The most important step when using your Breadmaker is measuring your ingredients. It is
very important to measure each liquid and dry ingredient accurately. For best results, add
ingredients in the order given in each recipe.
Liquid Measure
• Use transparent plastic or glass liquid measuring cups to measure all liquid ingre-
dients.
• Place the cup on a horizontal flat surface and view markings at eye level. The level
of the liquid must be aligned to the appropriate mark of measurement.
• Do not “guesstimate!”
Dry Measure
• Dry ingredients must be measured using standard dry measuring cups. These cups
are available in various sizes.
• Gently spoon dry ingredients into the measuring cup and level off with a knife.
Do not scoop or tap measuring cup, as this will pack the ingredients. This extra
amount could affect the balance of the recipe.
• Do not sift flour in bread making.
Recipe Tips
The recipes included in this book were developed for this Breadmaker. Each recipe features
ingredients that best compliment a particular loaf of bread and each was tested using the
Beyond Breadmaker.
• It is extremely important not to exceed the amount of flour specified in each
recipe, approximately 4-4- cups, or the bread may not be satisfactory.
• When using your own yeast bread recipes, use the recipes in this cookbook as a
guide for converting portions from your recipe to the Breadmaker.
Special Glazes for Yeast Breads
Select one of the following special glazes to enhance your bread. After glazing, if desired,
generously sprinkle with your choice of poppy, sesame or caraway seeds.
Egg Glaze Beat 1 large egg and 1 tablespoon of water together, brush
generously over dough. Note: Apply to breads just before baking.
Melted Butter Crust: Brush melted butter over just-baked bread for a softer,
tender crust.
Milk Glaze For a softer, shiny crust, brush just-baked bread with milk or cream.
