PERFECT GARLIC BREAD FROM SCRATCH



Perfect Garlic Bread from Scratch image

you can do this with pre-made french bread if you're short on time but i really think it's worth it to do this from start to finish on a lazy afternoon. goes beautifully with pasta or a nice light cream soup. i use my own homemade butter for this (possibly because i'm crazy). if you want to do that it's really easy: just take whipping cream at room temp, whip it way past the point of whipping cream and you'll see the fat separate from the milk. squeeze the newborn butter to the side of the bowl and pour off the milk (keep that, it's perfectly good), rinse the butter under cold water three or four times, breaking it up to wash out the extra milk, then mix in a little salt. you can easily double or triple this but it may or may not freeze well. the dough and butter would probably freeze better separately.

Categories     < 4 Hours

Time 2h

Yield 1 loaf, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 -2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup warm water
1/2 tablespoon instant yeast
1/2 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon oil
1/4-1/3 cup butter (room temp, homemade really is better)
1/2 teaspoon dill
6 garlic cloves, minced (i run it through my garlic grinder)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh black pepper

Steps:

  • mix the yeast and sugar in a measuring cup, that keeps it from getting lumpy, add the cup of warm water and stir together. let sit for 5 minute.
  • mix 2 cups flour and salt in a med sized bowl, then dump in yeast mix and stir until a soft dough forms.
  • kneed until dough is smooth and elastic, adding more flour if needed. don't add so much flour that it becomes dry, it should still be slightly sticky.
  • rinse out the bowl and swirl the oil around in it, put the dough back in and turn it over so it's coated.
  • cover the bowl (i like to wrap a tea towel over and under it), and place in a warm (not hot!) oven to rise. i usually turn my oven on to the lowest setting that will turn on the element for 5 min and then turn off.
  • once the dough has doubled in size, punch it down and form into a long, thin loaf. place on a cookie sheet that you've oiled and sprinkled with cornmeal. slash diagonally with a sharp knife 3 or 4 times. place it back in your warm oven until it's doubled again.
  • turn the oven up to 375f for 20 minutes. my oven runs a little cool so i turn it up to closer to 380 or 390. a little too warm is better then a little to cool in this case. after 20 min it should be nicely golden on top. let it cool until no more then warm.
  • in the mean time mix all ingredients of the garlic butter.
  • slice vertically into 3/4-1 inch slices, leaving the bottom crust intact. carefully pull slices apart so you can spread the butter on each side of each slice without breaking them apart.
  • wrap loosely but completely in foil and bake at 400f for 10-15 minutes. serve immediately.

Time 3h40m

Yield Makes two 5-by-9-inch loaves

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 envelope (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast (not rapid-rise)
3 tablespoons sugar, plus a pinch
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for bowl
1 cup whole milk
1 tablespoon kosher salt
3 large eggs, whisked
4 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pans
1 clove garlic, finely minced
1 tablespoon minced chives
1 tablespoon finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Dough: In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine yeast, 1/4 cup warm water (110 degrees) and pinch of sugar. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
  • Attach bowl to mixer fitted with dough-hook attachment. Mix on low speed, adding butter, milk, salt, remaining 3 tablespoons sugar, and eggs. Slowly add flour and mix on low until mixture just comes together. Increase speed to medium-high; beat until dough is soft and elastic, 5 minutes.
  • Lightly brush a large bowl with butter. Place dough in bowl; cover with plastic wrap. Place in a warm, draft-free place and let rise until dough doubles in size, about 2 hours (or refrigerate overnight; bring to room temperature before baking).
  • Filling: Combine butter, garlic, herbs and salt in small bowl. Lightly coat two standard 5-by-9-inch loaf pans with butter. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Roll into a 12-by-16-inch rectangle. Using an offset spatula, spread herb-butter mixture evenly over dough. Using a pizza wheel or a sharp knife, cut dough lengthwise into 3 equal strips. Cut dough crosswise into 4 equal sections. (You will have twelve 4-inch squares.) Fold each square in half, and place 6 in each pan, folded-sides down. (Dough will be soft.) Cover pans with plastic wrap and let rise until dough does not spring back when pressed with a finger, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake loaves until golden, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes before turning out of pans; serve. Bread can be stored, wrapped in parchment-lined foil, at room temperature up to 1 day.

Tips:

  • Use fresh garlic for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh garlic, you can use 1 teaspoon of garlic powder instead.
  • If you don't have active dry yeast, you can use instant yeast instead. Just add it directly to the flour mixture without activating it first.
  • Be sure to let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will ensure that the bread is light and fluffy.
  • If you don't have a bread machine, you can knead the dough by hand. Just knead it for about 10 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.
  • Be sure to grease the loaf pan before adding the dough. This will prevent the bread from sticking to the pan.
  • Bake the bread at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about 30 minutes, or until it is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.

Conclusion:

Garlic yeast bread is a delicious and easy-to-make bread that is perfect for any occasion. Whether you are serving it as a side dish or a main course, this bread is sure to be a hit. So next time you are looking for a new bread recipe to try, be sure to give garlic yeast bread a try. You won't be disappointed!
