PROTEIN BREAD
If you have committed yourself to the Scarsdale Diet programs, you have found then that the protein bread is an important part of the diet regimen.
Ingredients:
One-cup warm water
One tablespoon dry yeast
1/2 teaspoon salt
1-teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup soy flour
1/4 cup gluten flour (gluten flour has much fewer carbohydrates than regular flour. You can substitute high gluten bread flour if you cannot find gluten flour.)
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour.
Place water in a medium mixing bowl. Sprinkle dry yeast into to bowl and let stand until yeast dissolves (five minutes or so). Add salt, sugar, and vinegar to bowl. Mix well.
Sift together soy and gluten flours together. Slowly add to the yeast mixture in the bowl.
Sift whole wheat flour and add it to mixture in bowl. Turn mixture slowly until dough sticks together (and not to sides of bowl). If you have a mixer or food processor that has dough hooks, these help tremendously with the mixing.
Lightly flour a board or other surface. Scoop dough into ball with floured hands and place on surface. Knead for five minutes until dough is smooth and elastic.
Place into small bread pan that has been sprayed with nonstick spray. Adjust dough to fit shape of pan (loaf shape). Do not try to touch dough all the way to sides of pan. Cover with slightly dampened towel and set in a warm place (free from drafts) to rise. Let rise for two to three hours until dough has at least doubled in size and reaches top of bread pan.
Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees.
Bake bread in a preheated oven for one hour or until light golden brown.
The Scarsdale diet program's bread will be much denser than regular bread. Cut into thin slices. Keep unused portion in refrigerator.
In order to keep your Scarsdale diet program's bread longer (or if you would like to make multiple loaves ahead of time); you can double wrap the loaves in plastic (after you slice them thinly); and store them in the freezer. Take what you want out of the freezer, as you need it while following the Scarsdale diet programs.
Toasting the bread before consumption when on the Scarsdale diet programs makes the bread more palatable and easier to eat (the dense bread can be a bit dry and chewy).
