Basic Bread Dough III Recipe - Cooking Index
3/4 cup | 177ml | Warm water |
1 | Yeast | |
1 teaspoon | 5ml | Kosher salt |
1 tablespoon | 15ml | Extra-virgin olive oil |
3 cups | 187g / 6.6oz | All-purpose flour |
Combine the water, and yeast in a large bowl and stir until dissolved. Add the salt and the olive oil and mix thoroughly. Add 1 cup of the flour and mix with a wooden spoon to make a loose batter. Add 2 more cups of the flour and stir with the spoon for 2 to 3 minutes to incorporate as much flour as possible.
Bring the dough together by hand and turn out onto a floured board or marble surface. Knead for 6 to 8 minutes, until you have a smooth, firm dough. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with a towel. Set aside to rise in the warmest part of the kitchen for 45 minutes.
After 45 minutes, cut the risen dough into 2 equal pieces and knead each portion into a round. Cover again and let rise for 15 minutes. The dough is now ready to be used.
This recipe yields 2 loaves.
