I have a bread machine recipe that I would like to make, but I do not have a bread machine. The bread machine is only used to mix the ingredients, so I am wondering when I should mix the ingredients in. The ingredients consist of chives , dill and a variety of other spices.
Do I mix this into the yeast before I mix it with the water to activate it? or do I mix it in with the flour before I add it to the yeast? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Actually it is really easy especially if you have a stand mixer with a hooked "dough" blade or even a flat paddle blade if you only have a bowl and your hands it will be a little more work but is totally doable. Simply place the dry ingredients into a large bowl (large enough to hold 3x the ingredients you start with to accommodate growth) next warm the liquid to the lukewarm (slightly higher than room temperature but not hot) add 1 tablespoon of either sugar or honey (nothing artificial it will kill the yeast) stir in the yeast next then slowly mix into the flour to form dough. Now knead the dough to thoroughly combine (use mixer or hands) add 1~2 tablespoons oil to coat the dough and cover with a damp warm towel then a dry towel leave alone to rise when doubled in size punch down reknead and recover as before then when redoubled it is ready to bake. Use whatever vessel you prefer (round or square well oiled) and bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes. Enjoy!

Nothing easier! Bread machines generally do stuff sorta backward. You add salt, sugar, liquid, THEN the flour and FINALLY the yeast. Just start with the yeast, liquid & sugar, then add salt and whatever else, then the flour. Flour is the big variable. Sometime you need more (or less) than the recipe.
Mix the wet stuff with a spoon. Add and stir in flour until it gets too stiff to stir. Dump it out onto a floured breadboard and knead until the surface is smooth and silightly resilient.
Grease a big bowl (about 2-3 qt.). Grease the dough top by plopping it into the greased bowl, grab the dough ball and flip it over so the
greased part is on top and the ungreased is on the bottom. Cover with a cloth (or not) and put someplace warm to raise until doubled in
bulk.
When doubled, punch down, form a loaf by kneading and shaping then put in a greased loaf pan or on a greased baking sheet. Let rise until almost doubled, pop into 350 oven and bake until done (bread recipes are single loaf recipes.)

Yes, you can use the same recipe. The difference with the bread machine is the precision kneading and proofing. But why not just get a regular bread recipe and use it? I am sure you can find hundreds of recipes for doing by hand on the internet. Sd

The site is breadmachinedigest.com/converting.
Went to the other site - no such place. Honest goof. The one I checked was on yahoo.
The other thing you could do is to add the spices you like to a basic bread recipe. Since these are not cooking until the last they will be fine.Mix them in with your dry contents. Sounds like it will be good.

I put "convert bread machine recipes" into Google, and came up with the site below. Try it... you might find a site you like better, but I think this one's pretty precise.
