Directions
Chocolate Babka (Bread Machine), Who doesn’t like Chocolate? Chocolate babkas seems to be where it is at! This comes out beautifully in the bread machine The raisins can be omitted Soaking the raisins in rum, rose water or orange blossom water gives this an extra treat , What is meant by make spirals with the dough ?, I havent made this yet, because I find the directions a bit vague and confusing The biga already has a cup of flour in it, and the recipe says 3 cups of flour for the dough, but as needed So, after the biga is done, do I add the whole 3 cups, or add it slowly until the dough reaches the right consistency And what would that be? Silky, shiny, firm, sticky, Im new to bread making and bread machines, and a hint would be helpful!
