Butter bread with grits
This is my experiment with cornmeal in bread baking. I remember baking a cake from corn grits recipe from Pillsbury, and I really liked it by the structure of the test, so I decided to try to add it to the bread. It turned out flavorful, airy bread, with bright patches of corn grits and with a slight rustling. Can be served for lunch or even for tea with jam.

Cooking

step-0
In warm milk dissolve sugar and yeast, put in a warm place for 10-15 minutes for the formation of yeast beanie
step-1
Corn I soaked with boiling water for 20 minutes, so that was a little softer.
step-2
In the bowl with the dissolved yeast, add the egg, pour our cereal, along with remnants of water - mix everything together
step-3
Add cornmeal and wheat, flour not all at once add, you may need less or Vice versa a little more - it all depends on the quality of flour
step-4
Knead a thick dough and add the softened butter or margarine, carefully to knead
step-5
Now look at the dough and if needed, add wheat flour and knead not tight dough, it will be a little crumbly consistency and stick to your hands ( I want to say is that I was afraid to "score" the dough with flour, so the bread I got more air, and when lifting, the bread is a little blurred, if you want a more dense crumb, then knead for a denser dough)
step-6
Cover the bowl with a towel and put in a warm place until the dough rise (30 to 45 min), I had 30 minutes, the dough rose twice
step-7
Punch dough down and put it once again on the rise ( the second time it rose higher and faster)
step-8
Take the dough and formed in any usual way - I made two small loaves. The baking sheet I lined with parchment and sprinkled with flour
step-9
Put the bread in the proofing, for 30-40 minutes (I put in a warm oven)
