Disappointing brioche
Re: Disappointing brioche
Mersea, how much fluid do you use? I got halfway through and realised
I should have checked beforehand!
My breadmaker booklet said 180ml of water and 2tbsp skimmed milk for 400g flour, so I cut the water down by a third.
We'll see how my guesswork comes out!!

Same old nonsense.

Hi Flâneur,
Sorry you did not follow the recipe I gave you. NO milk, NO powdered milk, NO water.
Just the ingredients I gave you and a perfect result you will have.
Would be interested to know what you brioche turned out like. Maybe even better.
All the best.

Re: Disappointing brioche
Mersea, I suppose any liquid content comes from the eggs and the melted butter, but perhaps Flaneur was mislead by you saying "My bread maker is a Panasonic so you start with the dry ingredients first", implying, to a newbie, that the liquid ingredients follow.
