I stumbled across this recipe here
A bread that
NEEDS NO KNEADING!!!!!
INGREDIENTS
3 Cups Flour
.25 (1/4) Spoon Dried Yeast
1T Salt
1.5 Cups Water
METHOD
Heat oven 180C
High shelf in the oven.
Chuck the flour, yeast and 1 tablespoon of salt into a bowl, add the water
and stir until everything is whetted.
It makes a wet and sticky 'dough'
Cover and leave for 24 hours.
Dough gets VERY bubbly
: )
Tip out onto a bed of flour, dust with more flour and flatten out your sticky mess - plenty of flour.
Fold up your dough into of thirds, repeat once, or fold any way you fancy - plenty of flour needed so you don't stick.
Put into cooking trays - support the sides with rolled up tea towels if you want French sticks,
or tins and/or banetons (dough's a bit too sticky for proving bowls like these : / ).
Leave to rise again for at least 1 hour and up to 6 hours.
Leave to rise again for at least 1 hour and up to 6 hours.
Or put them straight onto the warm (not too hot) griddle. These were like old fashioned MUFFINS crossed with CRUMPETS
: P
Cook HOT - ideally with a pizza stone under the tins, or in the woodburner.
The finished bread is light, and airy with a great texture and the thinnest,crispiest crust ever.
Can also be made using your own sourdough yeast culture and any flour you fancy.
Try it,
it's
GENIUS!!!
