Low-Salt White Bread
Low-Salt White Bread bakes up softly tender with a hint of sweetness and a fine, balanced crumb that’s ideal for sandwiches or toast. The mild salt keeps the flavor gentle while letting the wheat and yeast notes shine. Serve warm from the rack or sliced for everyday lunches and breakfast.

In a large bowl, combine 3-1/2 cups of the flour, the sugar, salt, oil, and yeast. Add warm water. Beat on low speed for 1 minute, scraping the bowl often. Beat on medium speed for 1 minute, scraping the bowl often. Stir in enough of the remaining flour, 1 cup at a time, until the dough is easy to handle.

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for about 10 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Place it in a greased bowl and turn it so the greased side is up. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 45 to 50 minutes or until doubled. (The dough is ready if an indentation remains when touched.) If you lack a warm, draft-free spot, placing the covered bowl on a rack in the oven above a pan of warm water works well.

Grease 2 loaf pans, either 9x5x3 inches or 8-1/2x4-1/2x2-1/2 inches. Punch down the dough and divide it in half. Shape each half into a loaf and place in the pans. If desired, brush the loaves lightly with margarine. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 35 to 40 minutes or until doubled.
- 4
Position the oven rack low so the tops of the pans will be centered in the oven. Heat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the loaves are deep golden brown and sound hollow when tapped; remove from the pans. If desired, brush the loaves with margarine. Cool on a wire rack.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
