Country French Bread
Great with pasta, this bread is an easy one to make
ahead and then bake to go with your meal.
|
We sometimes make this into garlic bread or
top with sesame seeds. This has become a
favorite dinner bread. |

Ingredients |
Preparation Notes |
2 1/4 Cups
|
Water |
- Heat water and butter to 125 degrees
- Put yeast, salt and half of the flour in a mixing
bowl.
- Add the water mixture to the dry mixture and begin
mixing with dough hooks or a spoon until all ingredients are blended
together.
- Gradually add the remaining flour and continue
mixing. Dough will become stiff.
- Knead with dough hooks until a ball forms and
exterior is a bit shiny. Add a little more flour if dough is too wet
and won't form a ball. If kneading by hand look for the same
indicators.
- Place in a greased bowl, turn dough once so that
all sides are greased. Cover bowl with a hot damp towel and allow to
raise until double. Usually between 30 and 60 minutes.
- Punch down and turn onto floured board or surface.
- Knead dough for a few minutes by hand.
- Divide dough into 2 - 4 equal parts depending on
the size of loaves you wish to make.
- Roll out dough into a rectangle. Turning over at
least once
- Brush surface with melted margarine. If making
garlic bread, sprinkle margarine with garlic powder.
- Roll rectangle like a jelly roll, fold over the
ends and place on greased cookie sheet. Make several diagonal slashes in the
top of the loaves. Brush with oil.
- Repeat for each loaf.
- Cover with wax paper and place in the refrigerator for 2
to 24 hours.
- Remove from refrigerator 1/2 to 1 hour before
baking.
- Mix egg white and water and brush on to breads
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees
- Bake for 35 - 40 minutes.
