A fine-textured white bread made in your bread machine. It is most excellent toasted or in sandwiches. Makes perfect BLT's. Makes a 1 1/2 pound loaf. Tip: I use Fleischmann's Instant Yeast. It comes in 1 pound bags. Very reasonably priced and has never failed for me. Keep it in the freezer or fridge.

Tips:

  • Properly measure your ingredients: Baking is a science, and precise measurements are crucial for successful bread making. Use a digital kitchen scale for accurate measurements.
  • Activate the yeast: Before adding yeast to the dough, activate it in warm water with a little sugar. This will ensure that the yeast is active and ready to work its magic.
  • Knead the dough thoroughly: Kneading develops the gluten in the flour, which gives the bread its structure and elasticity. Knead the dough for at least 10 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place: After kneading, place the dough in a warm, draft-free place to rise. Cover the dough with plastic wrap or a damp cloth to prevent it from drying out.
  • Shape the dough gently: When shaping the dough, be gentle and avoid degassing it. Degassing will release the carbon dioxide that the yeast has produced, which will result in a less airy bread.
  • Score the dough before baking: Scoring the dough before baking allows the bread to expand evenly and prevents it from cracking. Use a sharp knife or razor blade to make shallow cuts in the top of the dough.
  • Bake the bread at a high temperature: Cobblestone bread is typically baked at a high temperature, around 450°F (230°C). This creates a crispy crust and a soft, fluffy interior.

Conclusion:

With careful attention to detail and a bit of practice, you can create a delicious and beautiful cobblestone bread at home. Experiment with different flours, seeds, and toppings to find your favorite combination. Cobblestone bread is a versatile bread that can be enjoyed on its own, toasted, or used for sandwiches. It's a great addition to any meal and a wonderful way to impress your friends and family.
