Steps to make French Bread Made with Ingredients On Hand:
- Place the ingredients marked ◎ into the bread maker case. Put the yeast into the yeast compartment and let it work until the first rising.
- Remove the dough and use a scraper to divide into 2 halves. Form into smooth balls, cover with plastic wrap and a wrung out damp cloth, and let rest for 20 minutes.
- Place the dough from Step 2 onto a flour coated surface. Use the palms of your hands to lightly press down and deflate the dough while spreading it out into an oblong rectangle (25cm x 15cm).
- Fold over the dough from the far edge 1/4 by 1/4 until it reaches the middle, do the same with the closer side until they meet in the center. Use your thumb to close the seam.
- Then fold it in half and close the seam with the heel of your hand.
- Gently roll it around so that it looks like a cucumber. Cover with a damp cloth, place in a warm place, and let rise a second time.
- Use a strainer to dust the dough with bread flour. Use a knife or razor to score the tops of the dough and pour a small amount of oil into the cuts.
- Preheat the oven to 250°C. Lower the temperature to 230°C and bake the bread for 12 minutes. Then lower the oven to 200°C and bake for another 10 minutes. They're done.
- This picture shows the bubbles in the bread when sliced vertically. The goal is to get various sized bubbles throughout the bread.
- <For those who want a genuine flavor> If you decrease the amount of yeast, the bubbles will form easier in the matured dough. I recommend 1/8 teaspoon.
- Combine the ingredients marked ◎ and the yeast (1/8 ~ 1 teaspoon), put into the bread maker, and remove after 7 minutes of mixing.
- After that, place into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and place in a warm place for the first rising, until the dough doubles in size.
French bread is eaten with the hands. Put away the bread knife and just tear off a piece. Never mind the butter if you want to eat it like a true Frenchman.
