ITALIAN BREAD (BREAD MACHINE)



Italian Bread (Bread Machine) image

I love this recipe because it is very quick and easy. The ingredients for this recipe are always in most peoples houses. I've been known to whip up a loaf in the morning when I realized I was out of bread for school lunches. I don't always use the egg white in the recipe unless you want a crispy crust. Most times I just brush on butter after if comes out of the oven. This recipe is tried and true and loved by all in my circle of family and friends; enjoy. Notes: Easy and with no milk. I have also added Parmesan, thyme, garlic after the flour and salt just to give it an added flavor change every now and then. Serving Ideas: Wonderful w/ pastas or stews.

I've been making this bread for years without measuring, and finally decided to write it down. My most requested bread from my bread-lovin' son. Makes the house smell divine!! You can easily increase the amounts of seasonings to your taste. (NOTE: Many people seem to be needing to add extra water, so I'm adding an adjustment to the recipe.)

ITALIAN PEASANT BREAD FOR BREAD MACHINE



Italian Peasant Bread for Bread Machine image

Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, this bread flecked with herbs, is an almost identical version to the bread served at the popular restaurant Ramano's Macoroni Grill. I came across the recipe after becoming addicted to their bread and craving it constantly (thanks to Google search and Cafe Michele). It's a great bread to tear and dip in flavored olive oils and to serve with your best Italian pasta dishes, or soups.

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 2h55m

Yield 1 loaf, 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup water
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups flour
1 tablespoon salt
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons rosemary
1 tablespoon yeast
additional rosemary (to garnish)
salt (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Place ingredients, according to manufacturer's directions into your bread machine.
  • (some call for all liquids, or all dry ingredients first, so know your machine) Set machine to "dough cycle" and wait. (This takes most machines about an hour and a half for a full cycle).
  • Remove from machine when cycle is complete and place on a lightly greased baking sheet.
  • Shape dough by hand, into a rectangular mound, spreading kind of thin, maybe an inch or two of thickness.
  • Cover and let rise in a warm place for about an hour or until doubled in size. (This is a good time to go ahead and turn the oven on to preheat and help warm the kitchen).
  • Brush with a little olive oil, sprinkle with rosemary and salt if desired. (This is the way its done at Macaroni Grill).
  • Bake at 375°F for 20-25 minutes until crust is golden and crispy. Bread is meant to be a flatter shape and not a high rising bread.
  • Have everyone tear their pieces of bread with their hands,and serve with olive oil flavored with fresh ground pepper.
