Brush the visible surface of each bread roll with a little beaten egg. Divide the remaining grated cheese and distribute it as evenly as possible across the top of each roll, but do not put it too close to the edge. The cheese will partially obscure the cuts in the roll made earlier by the scraper, but this does not matter.
As the dough proves, it will spread the cheese out a bit. Prove until nicely risen, then bake in a moderate oven C for minutes. These rolls are small and flat, so the heat will penetrate fairly quickly to the centre of the dough. Take care not to let the cheese on the top get overdone: it can go from softly melted to dried and "foxy" in just a matter of minutes.
The deep cross you pressed into the dough should be just visible after baking and the cheese rolls should break easily into four wedges, which make good soup rolls. If you plan to fill a cheese bread, it is best to keep it as one, divide it horizontally, insert the filling and then cut the whole thing into halves or quarters.
It uses the classic sponge-and-dough method - the way most bread was made until the second half of the last century. A very small amount of yeast is used in the sponge, which reproduces itself by feeding on the sugars available in the sponge flour, so that by the time the final dough is made there are enough active yeast cells to give a good rise to the rolls.
If, after fermenting your sponge for 18 hours, you discover that you haven't time to make bread after all, don't worry. Just leave the sponge in a coolish place or the fridge for another day.
First make the overnight sponge 5g fresh yeast g water at 20C 50g stoneground strong wholemeal flour g strong white flour. Dissolve the yeast in some of the water and add it to the flours with the rest of the water.
Mix until the dough has "cleared", i. There is no need to knead the sponge, since time will develop the gluten sufficiently. In fact, after 18 hours the gluten will be so soft that, if then kneaded hard, it would turn quite quickly into a sticky mess. Put the sponge in a bowl large enough to allow it to expand to at least three times its original size.
Cover with a lid or polythene bag and leave it at ambient temperature for 12 to 18 hours. If ambient happens to be more than 25C, find somewhere a bit cooler so that the yeast does not start fermenting too quickly. Before you do anything else, take the lid or cover off your sponge and enjoy a first whiff of the fruity, beery, vinegary aroma. Notice how the mixture has obviously bubbled up and collapsed.
The yeast is still working a bit, but it is running out of food. The gluten structure has collapsed because enzymes have softened it and it has been stretched by vigorous pressure from the fermentation gases. Aim to make a mixture at about 27C. Mix all the ingredients together into a soft dough. Knead until it is silky and slightly stretchy. Leave to rise for an hour, during which time the yeast will begin to use the fermentable sugars in the fresh flour.
Without completely de-gassing the dough, divide it into 12 pieces, then mould each one tightly by rolling it on the work surface. As soon as each piece is moulded, dip it in flour, making sure that the whole piece is covered. Place the floured rolls about 2cm apart on a tray lined with baking parchment.
Line them up so each has an equal space in which to rise. If you want to make a flatter roll, let the freshly moulded and floured dough pieces stand for about five minutes to relax the gluten and then roll them out with a rolling pin until they are about 50 per cent wider than before. Cover the whole tray with a loose polythene bag to create a warm, moist atmosphere in which the dough can rise easily. The rolls are ready for the oven when they have risen and are just touching their neighbours.
Bake in a very hot oven C , turning down the heat after five minutes to C. They may take as little as minutes, depending on your oven. Checking is not easy if the rolls have batched together as they should. Gently tear one away from the rest and check its top and bottom crusts. If the torn side where it was attached to its neighbour still looks a bit raw, it probably needs a minute or two more in the oven, but the rolls will firm up a little as they cool.

He left London in to grow his own food on an organic smallholding in Cumbria, and went on to found The Village Bakery, which has won many awards, culminating in the Organic Trophy. Whitley has been an occasional contributor to Radio 4's The Food Programme and has written on bread and related matters for specialist journals.

Could a loaf made from 'unripe' dough also give some people difficulty? Might those same people find they can enjoy genuine sourdough, or other longer-fermented Real Bread?
Again, the Real Bread Campaign calls for money to be invested in thorough research. For now, see the notes on longer fermentation on our FAQs page. As taste is totally subjective, it's something we don't often mention. But another thing that the industrial loaf process does is rob loaves of time to develop flavour. Similar to cheese, wine, fruit and other foods, bread dough benefits from having time to allow natural processes that generate flavour compounds, which enhance the taste and smell of loaves.
Having taken this away, industrial loaf manufacturers may resort to tactics including adding flavour enhancers such as vinegar or extra salt, or you might even see 'bread flavouring' listed! The Real Bread Campaign is a project of Sustain: the alliance for better food and farming.

Doughnuts are a key product for Morrisons ISBs with 1. They are mixed, proved, fried, sugared, and filled on-site. Away from ISB, Morrisons produces nearly 50 types of products — including hot cross buns, seeded loaves, crumpets, pancakes and pittas — at the Rathbones bakery in Wakefield.
The current system is the result of a shake-up announced in February that involved the axing of scratch baking in 58 stores and its reduction in more than other sites. Since May last year Tesco has continued to offer scratch baking in stores, while at a further sites only the most popular products are scratch-baked with the others part-baked. The 58 stores where scratch baking has been axed have been converted to full bake-off operations where all products are delivered pre-prepared, then baked and finished in store.
Tesco said the move was in response to a shift in consumer tastes and preferences, with less demand for traditional loaves and customers opting for alternatives such as wraps, bagels and flatbreads. Register now. Asda unveiled plans last week to scrap in-store scratch baking and move to an ambient bakery model which could put 1, jobs at risk. The retailer is proposing to end scratch baking in its in-store bakeries, moving instead to an ambient bakery model which would see pre-baked goods delivered from a centralised bakery daily.
The supermarket category seeks excellence among retailers, which operate a minimum of 10 sites, that sell baked goods through an in-store bakery operation and the wider bakery proposition. The subscription service is adding a vegan sweet and savoury broken biscuit box to its range to mark World Vegan Day on 1 November. Site powered by Webvision Cloud. This is normal, and will enhance the quality of the products you bake in it.

Tips from our Bakers Tips for using your Italian bread pan : Before using for the first time, wash your new pan in hot, soapy water; rinse and dry.
To bake the loaves without a pan, shape, and place them on a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving enough room between them for expansion.
