Soy Protein Bread
The use of soy protein in this recipe increases the bread's natural flavor. This bread is very easy to prepare.
30 g (1 oz) fresh yeast
2 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
3 cups warm milk
1 tbsp white granulated sugar
1 tbsp salt
1 cup texturized soy protein
8 cups all-purpose flour
Heat the milk until it is about to boil, then add the salt and the soy protein. Mix it for the salt to be well dissolved. Let it rest until is warm again.
Put the milk and the rest of the ingredients, including the yeast, in blender. Mix it for a few seconds until it is homogeneous.
Pour the mixture into a bowl and start mixing in the flour to keep the bread homogeneous all the time.
Work the bread with your hands all the time, always keeping it smooth. You may have to add some extra flour while you work with it. Keep doing this until the bread stops being sticky.
Let it rest for about 25 minutes at a warm place.
