Instructions

  1. 1 Stir yeast and sugar into lukewarm water, using a fork. Let stand in a warm place until a creamy layer forms on top of the water, about 10 minutes.
  2. 2 Mix flour and salt in a large bowl. Mix olive oil into flour and stir for 2 minutes. Pour yeast mixture and beaten egg into flour mixture and stir to make a stiff dough. Turn dough out onto a floured work surface and knead until springy and smooth, about 8 minutes.

Scrape the dough onto the floured surface. Sprinkle flour on top of the dough. Gently stretch and pull dough into a long, flat rectangular shape, 12 to 15 inches long. Bring plastic sheet to edge of prepared pan and flip the dough into the prepared pan. Reshape the dough, if necessary. Dust with flour. Cover with a light dry towel. Let rise about 2 hours.
  5. 5 Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

Instructions

  1. 1 Stir whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, yeast, salt, sugar, olive oil, and warm water with a spatula until formed into a sticky ball of dough that pulls away from sides of a large bowl, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. 2 Cover the bowl with a light cloth or plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place (80 to 95 degrees F (27 to 35 degrees C)) for 18 hours, until doubled in size.
  3. 3 Preheat the oven to 550 degrees F (280 degrees C). Sprinkle a baking sheet with cornmeal.
  4. 4 Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and sprinkle with more flour. Form the dough into a rectangle, and cut it into four equal parts. Shape each piece into a ball, stretching and tucking the dough to create a smooth surface, adding more flour if needed. Cover the dough balls with a towel and let rest for 15 minutes.
  5. 5 To shape the dough, sprinkle the surface with flour and lightly pat flat. Use a rolling pin to form a thin disk about 9 inches in diameter.
  6. 6 Transfer the formed crust to the prepared baking sheet and top as desired. Bake on the bottom rack for 4 minutes, move to the middle rack and bake for 5-6 minutes more minutes, until the bottom is crispy and the top is lightly browned. Move to cooling rack to cool slightly before serving.

Instructions

  1. 1 Place flour into work bowl of a large stand mixer; add both amounts of water, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Mix dough using stand mixer fitted with dough hook on low speed until it forms a ball on the dough hook, 5 to 6 minutes. Dough should be soft and elastic but not sticky.
  2. 2 Turn dough out onto a work surface and form a ball. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand on counter at room temperature for 1 hour.
  3. 3 Lightly grease the quarter-sheet baking pan with 1 teaspoon olive oil; sprinkle with cornmeal. Dust a work surface lightly with flour.
  4. 4 Move oven rack to center position. Preheat oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
  5. 5 Unwrap dough and cut into quarters. Pat each quarter out on the floured work surface to a roughly rectangular shape. Roll 1 piece of dough out to about 3/8 inch thick, retaining rough rectangle shape, until dough is about 6x8 inches. Pick up dough with well-floured hands and gently stretch it, rotating as you go, until dough is almost large enough to fit over the prepared sheet pan. Pull and stretch dough so it overlaps the edge of the pan by about 1/2 inch and fasten dough edges to sheet pan edges; dough will be thin and membrane-like.
  6. 6 Drop about 6 tablespoons of crescenza-stracchino cheese onto the stretched dough, spreading the dollops out evenly. Roll out another piece of dough as before, stretching to fit over the first dough sheet and cheese. Stretch, pull, and seal dough as before so the cheese is enclosed between the 2 sheets of dough.
  7. 7 Roll a rolling pin over the edges of the dough to simultaneously seal the flatbread edges and cut the overlapping edges off. Roll the overlapping dough edges away from the pan so flatbread falls into the prepared pan. Press flatbread edges flat and roll slightly if desired to be sure the edges are fully sealed. Discard rolled-off dough edges.
  8. 8 Pinch a small bit of the top dough between your thumb and forefinger and gently tear a small hole in the dough; repeat 2 or 3 more times to make a few tears in the top layer.
  9. 9 Drizzle flatbread lightly with 2 teaspoons olive oil; sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon coarse sea salt.
  10. 10 Bake in the preheated oven until flatbread has many browned, blistered spots on top, bread has inflated, and the top is crusty, 6 to 7 minutes. Repeat steps to make a second flatbread using second half of dough as before. Drizzle 2nd flatbread with remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon coarse sea salt. Bake second bread as before. Cut in breads into quarters and serve warm.

Instructions

  1. 1 Combine warm water, honey, and yeast in the bowl of a stand mixer; let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
  2. 2 Add 4 cups whole wheat flour, olive oil, and salt. Mix on low with the dough hook until just combined.
  3. 3 Cover the bowl and let dough rest for 15 minutes to allow gluten to begin developing.
  4. 4 Knead dough on medium speed until smooth and elastic and the sides of the bowl are clean, about 7 minutes.
  5. 5 Cover the bowl and let dough rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  6. 6 Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface, shape into a loaf, and place seam-side down in the prepared pan.
  7. 7 Let dough rise until it domes 1 inch above the rim of the pan, about 1 hour.
  8. 8 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake loaf in the preheated oven until golden brown and loaf sounds hollow when tapped, 40 to 45 minutes.
  9. 9 Remove loaf from the pan immediately and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.

Instructions

  1. 1 Stir milk and vinegar together in a small bowl; allow to stand until curdled, about 10 minutes.
  2. 2 Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
  3. 3 Whisk flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl; gradually stir in soured milk until dough just comes together. Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface; knead lightly and shape into a round.
  4. 4 Transfer dough to the prepared baking sheet. Cut an "X" into the top of the dough to release steam and help the bread keep its round shape while baking.
  5. 5 Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and the bottom of the loaf sounds hollow when tapped, about 45 minutes.
