TO MAKE THE BREAD FLOUR RECIPE

(or a large bowl if you have a hand mixer with dough hooks). Use a handheld.

whisk to combine well. Add the salt, and whisk to combine. Add the oil and.

water, and mix to combine.

Using the dough hook attachment for your stand mixer or the dough hooks.

attached to your hand mixer, knead the dough until smooth (about 4 to 5.
