Portuguese Sweet Bread Trial Runs

2 Doughs, 2 Days, Highlights, Laughter and Things Learned,

We wanted to learn how to make Portuguese Sweet Bread with commercial yeast and with Sourdough Starter.

This bread is an enriched dough that includes the addition of margarine or butter; eggs, milk, lemon zest, lemon extract, the Yeasted Sponge or Sourdough Sponge and flour. Going into our experimental trial we were unsure that the dough would work well using Sourdough Starter; as you will see it did work well.

We took the things we have learned and have created a Portuguese Sweet Bread that now makes 2 loaves bread and one pan of rolls in our next episode. These trial recipes just did not give us enough height to the loaves. There will be a new episode to follow with the updated recipe and results. I hope you will find value in this trial run. Thank you so much for being here; we appreciate you.
