Sanyo breadmaker

Sanyo breadmaker

Sanyo Electric Co has developed the world’s first rice bread cooker. Gopan, as it is called, bakes bread from rice grain.

It is easy to use. In the bread pan, place 220 grams of washed rice, 210 grams of water, 4 grams of salt, 16 grams of sugar, and 10 grams of shortening. Place 50 grams of wheat gluten and 3 grams of dry yeast in the automatic ingredient dispenser on the upper side of the unit body. Then press the start button. After the automatic process of milling, kneading, rising, and baking (which takes about 3 1/2 hours), a tasty rice bread appears.

    Is it only for rice, and can it make bread from wheat grain too? or from flour? Not much information.

    add 50g of wheat gluten, damn that defeats the whole purpose. Gotta use an alternative for the GF crowd.

    Hey, this is not bad - but having a bread maker makes is very dangerous for one's silhouette, LOL. I believe this should be able to cook normal bread also.

    Previous 'ricebread' machines have used rice flour, which is still quite expensive. This machine apparently uses ordinary rice wot you got in yer cupboard, which makes it much more attractive (assuming that you want rice bread in the first place). According to the Sanyo website it also does ordinary wheat bread, brown rice bread, mixed grain bread, natural yeast bread and you can add nuts, dried fruits etc. as you like. It also does just the dough, so you can shape it and bake it in the oven. It also does noodle dough, omochi and jam. There's also a 'wheat-zero' course for Carcharodon's GF crowd (GF??)

    Xanthum gun or Guar gum can be substituted for the gluten binder.

    Kool! How much energy is that using in 3 1/2 hours?? Is it more efficient than using an oven??

    I'd love to try 7 grains (or more grains) bread in it.

    maxtheitpro, the breadmakers which I have seen so far only use a tiny fraction of the power of an oven. So even though they take longer time to bake the bread, they are more energy efficient. I don't see why it shouldn't be the same for this model.
