SEMOLINA BREAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Whisk together the semolina flour, ¾ cups all purpose flour, yeast and salt.
• Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and add the molasses and water. Mix with your hands until a dough forms. (It should be a bit sticky, add a bit of all purpose flour if necessary to be able to work the dough).
• Place dough in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Set aside for about 30 minutes to an hour until the dough doubles in size.
• Add the remaining ½ cup of all purpose flour and knead into the dough. Knead for about ten minutes and then shape the loaf and place on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
• Cover with a damp cloth and allow the loaf to proof for an hour.
• Preheat the oven to 425ºF (220ºC).
• Uncover the loaf and cut three slits into the top of the loaf. Place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes.
• Lower oven temperature to 375ºF (190ºC) and continue to bake for another 15 minutes.
• The loaf will be done when golden brown and when it sounds hollow when knocked on the bottom.
• Remove and cool on a cooling rack.

• Put the dough into the bowl and turn so all sides are greased.

BASIC ITALIAN BREAD

Steps:

• Place the water and yeast in the bowl of an electric mixer and allow the yeast to bloom for about 5 minutes. Using a dough hook attachment, add the flour and sugar to the water and mix on low speed until a dough starts to form. Drizzle the oil and salt into the dough and beat on medium speed for 8 to 10 minutes, or until a smooth, firm, elastic dough is formed.
• Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl and spray the dough with a thin coating of cooking spray. Wrap the bowl with plastic wrap and set aside to proof in a warm, draft-free place for 11/2 hours or until doubled in size. Remove the plastic wrap, punch down and flatten the rounded dough with the heel of your hand. Roll the dough up tightly, sealing the seam well after each roll. The dough should be elongated and oval-shaped, with tapered and rounded (not pointed) ends.
• Preheat the oven lined with a pizza stone to 425 degrees F. Alternately, an inverted baking sheet may be used in place of a pizza stone.
• Place the dough on a baker's peel heavily dusted with semolina flour, or cornmeal, or alternately on an inverted baking sheet. Allow the dough to proof, loosely covered with a damp towel, for 30 minutes, or until doubled in size. Brush the dough with the egg white and sprinkle the sesame seeds over the top. Using a razor blade or sharp knife, score 3 (1/4-inch deep) slashes across the top of the dough at a 45 degree angle.
• Spray the dough generously with water from a water bottle and place in the oven on the baking stone. Immediately close the oven and bake for 3 minutes. Open the oven door and spray the dough again with the water bottle. Close the oven door and bake for an additional 3 minutes before spraying the dough for a third time (the spraying of the dough will ensure a crisp golden brown crust). Bake the dough for 45 minutes, or until a hollow thud is heard when the bread is whacked with the bowl of a wooden spoon. Allow the bread to cool slightly before serving.

MY "BEST EVER" BREADMAKER PIZZA DOUGH

Steps:

• MEASURE all ingredients except cornmeal into bread pan in order listed; Select dough setting.
• REMOVE dough to lightly floured surface and cover with plastic wrap; Let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
• SPRINKLE cornmeal on large 16 inch pizza pan or on a pizza stone and press dough into pizza shape; Cover with a towel and let rise for another 30 minutes.
• SPREAD with desired sauce, seasonings and toppings.
• BAKE at 425F for 20-30 minutes; I like to partially bake the pizza on a pan for about 8 minutes and then transfer it to a hot pizza stone sprinkled with the cornmeal for the remainder of the cooking time.
• I find by baking it initially on the pan it is easier to transfer to a pizza stone thus maintaining its large size.
