Everyone is worried about purchasing baked packaged products because of the artificial colouring and preservatives that have been added. Baking your bread at home is the healthiest alternative. The procedure becomes even more enjoyable because Usha's steam oven helps to create perfect loaves with improved crust formation and enhanced moisture retention.
With the help of the gentle steaming method, which replicates professional baking settings, you can produce good quality baking results in your own home. Here are some simple recipes you should try making in your steam oven to surprise and impress your loved ones.
Whole Wheat Bread
Mix whole wheat flour, sugar, salt, and instant yeast in a mixing basin. Add warm water to knead a smooth dough. Transfer the dough to an oiled bowl, cover it with a damp towel, and let it double in size for one hour. Punch down the dough and form it into a loaf after it has risen. Set the temperature of your Usha steam oven to 180°C and bake for approx 30 to 35 minutes. Allow it to cool before slicing.

Next, separate the dough into three equal halves and roll them out. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes in your Usha’s steam oven.
French Bread
French bread is known for its soft interior and crispy surface. Combine all-purpose flour, salt, and yeast to make this traditional loaf. After making the dough, let it rise, then form it into long rolls or baguettes. Preheat your steam oven to 220°C and bake for twenty to twenty-five minutes.
Pav Buns
Pav buns are frequently used in Indian cooking, especially in recipes like pav bhaji and vada pav. To make this mix, use all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, and instant yeast. To create a soft dough, gradually add melted butter and warm milk. Knead the dough for 8 to 10 minutes. Split the dough into little balls and arrange them close together on a prepared baking tray. Preheat your steam oven and bake until golden brown.
