Can we use a bread maker for this recipe?

JC: The hot boiling water is around 90C for table top oven. Do not put too much. You only need it to create some internal steam. During proofing, your dough will be moist so there is no need to spray water. But before baking, you can spray water on the dough. This is to create a crusty top for the bread. You are always welcome. I can understand your situation. It is quite difficult to visualise as you didn’t see the baking demo. Feel free to email me if you want. Happy baking!

Your bread look so delicious. I’m new in baking so if we are making this bread at home using table top oven, what is the temperature of hot water should we have for proofing? Boil the water then straight put in the oven (will the yeast die if too hot) or wait for it to cool down a little? Haha… can we spary some water on the dough if it’s too dry? Wow… so many question must pay you consultation fees :p

Miss B: Thanks! This bread is very simple and easy to make, suitable for newbie in making bread. It will be even better if you have a bread kneading machine. It will save you lots of time.

Lee Mei: Yes, it is a must try for you if pesto is your favourite sauce. Tell you a secret, I’m “addicted” to bread baking now. Don’t blame me if you got addicted too. LOL!

Hi! Beautiful looking loaves. My daughter loves pesto and I would like to try this recipe. But I don’t have a stand mixer, only breadmaker. I will try it out and see how it goes. Will let you know whether it is successful or not!
