Source: http://www.doksinet How to make perfect homemade bread! Source: http://www.doksinet A real bread oven in your own home! Do you know how to make a delicious loaf with a crispy crust? The secret lies in the baking, which requires a high level of carefully controlled humidity. The Emile Henry Bread Cloche recreates the same conditions that you find in a traditional bread oven. You can therefore create a delicious, crusty loaf that is light and airy inside. EMILE HENRY BREAD CLOCHE The Emile Henry Bread Cloche replicates cooking in a brick oven. The clay dome even looks like the vaulted roof of a beehive oven once common in rural villages. The Emile Henry Bread Cloche works by trapping moisture that evaporates from bread dough. The moisture turns to steam, which keeps the bread dough moist during baking. The dough expands, swelling into a plump loaf of bread. Once the moisture evaporates the loaf develops a crisp, thin crust and an appealing golden color. The platter on which

the bread is baked absorbs heat during baking. This heat is released back into the dough helping it rise into a lovely loaf. Ridges on the base keep the dough from sticking while it bakes Whether this is your first time baking bread or you are an experienced home baker, the Emile Henry Bread Cloche brings the flavor and aroma of fresh-baked bread into your kitchen. BREAD BAKING BASICS The basic ingredients for making bread are flour, water, yeast and salt. Magic happens when they are combined The type of flour used, the amount of water added to the dough and how long you let the dough rest and rise determine the kind of bread you will make. Add a little more water and your bread will rise more quickly, but it may take longer to bake in order for the extra moisture to evaporate. Add a little more flour and your dough will be firmer and less sticky. It will be easier to handle but it will take longer to rise HERE ARE SOME HANDY TIPS ON THE ELEMENTAL INGREDIENTS USED IN TRADITIONAL BREAD

MAKING. FLOUR Whether unbleached, stone ground or gluten-free, flour is the most important ingredient for making bread. Different types of flour will change the taste and appearance of your bread. Whole grain and rye flours, for example, make loaves that are denser and darker in color than those with basic wheat flour. Unbleached flour turns into bread with a creamy color. For the most satisfying results, we prefer unbleached flours. Wheat flour contains protein. When moistened, the protein turns into gluten, an elastic substance that gives bread its’ distinctive chewiness and rise. Chewy breads are made from flour with a high protein content such as bread flour. Many brands of all-purpose flour also work well for bread baking. Because all-purpose flour is widely available, we created many of our recipes using it. When substituting bread flour for all-purpose flour, you may need to add more water to your dough. Whole wheat flour is light brown in color. It is milled from the entire

grain of wheat including the dark bran. Blending whole wheat with some white flour will help make a lighter loaf of bread. Many people appreciate the aromatic taste of rye flour Because it contains very little protein, rye flour bakes into dense loaves. Blending it with some white flour will also help lighten the bread. Many kinds of beans, grains and rice are ground into flours that can be added to bread dough for additional taste or crunch. Cornmeal and rice flour, for example, sprinkled on the platter before baking keep breads from sticking. But none of these flours contain the protein that bakes into an airy loaf of bread. That is why such ingredients as barley flour or cornmeal, ground quinoa or millet are added to bread flour in small quantities, no more than 30% of the total flour in a recipe. For people who cannot digest the protein in wheat flours, these ingredients can be used to make satisfying bread. Starches, gums and eggs (among other ingredients) must be combined with

these flours to produce satisfying bread. Ground nuts, such as hazelnuts, pecans and walnuts add tremendous pizzazz to bread. To bring out the flavor, toast the nuts lightly before adding them to the dough. Seeds can add nutrition and texture to bread Add a few teaspoons to any bread dough for added texture and taste. Source: http://www.doksinet YEAST The magical ingredient, yeast is a living organism responsible for making breads rise. Yeast works by consuming the sugars and starch in bread dough Among the by products is carbon dioxide gas, which gets trapped in the elastic web of gluten in the dough. The gas causes the dough to rise up like a balloon Before the advent of packaged yeast, bakers relied on wild yeasts they captured in the air around them. They would make a batch of moist dough that would attract yeast cells, which would feed on the dough. Soon the dough would begin to bubble then rise, indicating that the yeast was active. Many sourdough breads are still made using

wild yeast. Now, there are several kinds of prepared yeast available for home baking. FRESH OR CAKE YEAST is highly perishable and must be kept refrigerated. At its best, fresh yeast has a pale color and smooth texture. To use fresh yeast, it must be proofed before using to test that it is still active. First dissolve the fresh yeast and a small amount of sugar in some of the liquid in the recipe. Let it sit for 10 minutes at which time it should be foamy with a sweet yeasty aroma. ACTIVE DRY YEAST has a coarse granulated texture. It comes in foil packets or glass jars and has a long shelf life. To use active dry yeast, dissolve it in some of the liquid in the recipe This activates it making the yeast ready to use. INSTANT YEAST is a concentrated form of dry yeast. It is finely granulated and can be added directly to the dry ingredients in a recipe. Yeast cells thrive in a warm environment, between 70°F and 100°F. In cooler temperatures the yeast becomes sluggish and inactive. In

warmer temperatures the yeast is energized and bread will rise quickly. And at 130°F, the yeast will start to die off. When making yeast bread, kneading techniques, ingredients and room temperature affect how long it takes for bread dough to rise. This is why most yeast breads are mixed until the dough is warm. You accomplish this by using slightly warm water The ideal temperature range for most bread dough after kneading is 75°F to 90°F. SALT Adds flavor to bread and also helps the dough develop its structure. You can use any type of salt when making bread. We prefer fine sea salt, a natural product that blends easily into bread dough. WATER dissolves the salt, sweeteners and yeast in bread dough. It moistens flour granules, releasing starches and proteins in the flour. Using slightly warm water speeds up yeast activity. You might consider using bottled spring water if you have excessively hard or treated water in your kitchen. FATS Butter, olive oil, nut butters and other fats

give breads a softer texture and crust. They also add their distinctive flavors to bread dough Bread dough with a large quantity of fat often calls for more yeast in the recipe. SWEETENERS Sugar, honey, maple syrup and other sweeteners give bread a deep, dark brown crust. They also feed the yeast, making dough rise rapidly Bread dough with sweeteners often calls for more yeast in the recipe. When baking bread dough with more sugar or other sweeteners in the recipe, bake your bread at a slightly lower temperature. This will keep the bread from browning too quickly before the dough is baked through. Yeast Conversions MIXING AND BAKING THE DOUGH Kneading bread dough develops the protein in the flour into You can substitute one type of gluten. This gives your bread a pleasing yeast for another.

What is important is to end up with dough that is silky and smooth. third of the amount of instant yeast in recipes that call for fresh cake Once mixed, bread dough is left yeast. (1:3) to rise. Technically the dough rises because the yeast is expelling gasses trapped in the dough’s rubbery structure in the bread dough. Professional bakers call this fermentation, the scientific name for what is taking place. A long slow fermentation produces bread with the most flavor. We recommend letting the dough rise for 2 to 3 hours. Before baking, bread dough is formed into its final shape whether that is a round loaf, a roll or a braid. Allowing the dough to rise again or proof helps ensure a pleasingly light loaf. As a rule of

thumb, let the dough proof until it expands 1½ times in size. When you gently press the dough with your fingertip, it will barely spring back. The last step before baking bread is cutting or scoring the surface of the dough with a sharp blade or serrated knife. (Bakers use razor blades or a lame, a tool specially designed for this purpose.) These cuts allow the dough to expand evenly during baking. They also give a decorative appearance to the finished loaf Dusting the top of the dough with flour, rice flour or seeds before scoring adds a rustic touch.

For best results, bake between 2 and 2 ¼ pounds of bread dough at one time. This is a batch of bread dough made from approximately 4 to 5 cups of flour. This amount of dough will expand to fill the bread

base and brown beautifully. To make plump round loaves that hold their shape for baking, roll your dough tightly before the final rise. Or place the ball of dough into a bowl lined with a lightly floured cloth towel. French bakers use specially designed cloth lined baskets called bannetons for this purpose. This preserves the shape of the dough We recommend to lightly sprinkle the base with flour and then you simply unmold the dough on to the base after it has proofed. (We do not recommend using your Bread Cloche for baking bread that is too soft to hold its shape, and would normally be baked in a loaf pan.) Before baking, adjust your rack so that it is in the bottom third of the oven. You want enough top space for the cloche to fit easily. Then preheat your oven When the dough is ready to bake, simply place the cloche on the rack. Because all ovens behave differently, test the temperature the first few times you use the cloche. Set your timer for 10 to 15 minutes less than the time

indicated in your recipe. Check your bread by carefully removing the cloche. If your bread is beginning to brown noticeably, you may want to reduce your oven temperature 25°F to 50°F. Conversely, if your loaf seems noticeably soft and pale, increase the oven temperature 25°F to 50°F. Then finish baking For a darker and thicker crust, remove the cover during the last 5 to 10 minutes of baking. Did you forget to preheat your oven? Your cloche can be used in a cold oven! Simply place the cloche in the oven, turn on the oven to the desired temperature and bake. Your loaf may be somewhat flatter in appearance but will taste just as delicious. If you would like to bake several batches of bread in your cloche, mix the dough in stages staggered approximately 45 minutes apart. While one batch of dough is baking, proof the next loaf. You can proof the loaf in a lightly floured cloth-lined bowl or on a parchmentlined baking sheet When it is time to bake, unmold the dough onto the heated base

Or slide the dough and parchment paper directly onto the platter when it becomes available. Trim the paper to fit under the cloche. If the cloche and base are still warm, your bread will bake more quickly. Just be careful when handling the cloche if it is very hot Basic White Bread Yield: 1 Large Round Loaf • 2 ½ teaspoons active dry yeast • 2 ½ teaspoons fine sea salt • 1 ½ cups (12 fluid ounces) warm water, 90°F - 100°F • 2 Tablespoons unsalted butter, softened • 4 ½ cups (1 ¼ pounds) unbleached all-purpose flour • 1 Tablespoon sugar 1. Dissolve the yeast in the water Add the flour, sea salt, butter and sugar Stir until the flour is just moistened. Knead by hand or in the bowl of a mixer fitted with the dough hook until the dough is smooth and silky, about 5 minutes. 2. Form the dough into a ball and place in a lightly oiled bowl Cover tightly and let the dough ferment and rise until doubled in bulk, from 1½ to 3 hours, longer in very cold weather. 3. Scrape

the dough out onto a lightly floured surface Form it into a tight ball 4. Lightly sprinkle the base with some flour Place the dough in the center of the base. Cover with the cloche and let the dough proof and rise until expanded 1½ times in size, from 30 to 45 minutes. 5. Sift more flour on the top of the dough if desired Using a serrated knife, make three parallel cuts on the surface of the dough. 6. Cover and bake in a preheated 450°F oven until well risen and golden brown, approximately 45 to 50 minutes. Remove the cover and continue baking, if desired, until the loaf is well browned and the crust thickens. 7. Cool the bread on a wire rack Tip: For a more uniform shape, in Step 4 allow the dough to rise in a cloth-lined bowl. Line a medium-sized bowl with a clean dish towel. Sprinkle it with some flour then place the dough into the bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let it proof as above. When fully proofed, lightly sprinkle the base with some flour. Place the dough in the

center of the platter. Proceed with Step 5.

Place the bowl in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours 2. Cover with a lid (not airtight) Allow to rise at room temperature for about 2 hours 3. The dough can be shaped and baked the day it’s mixed, or refrigerated in a lidded container (not completely airtight) or a bowl loosely covered with plastic wrap for up to 10 days. The dough will be easier to work with after at least 3 hours refrigeration. 4. On baking day, sprinkle the surface of the dough with flour Cut off a 1-pound (grapefruit-size) piece of dough. Cover the remaining dough and refrigerate for baking additional loaves within 14 days; flavor will develop during storage. 5.

Sprinkling with more flour to prevent sticking, shape a smooth ball with your hands by gently stretching the surface of the dough around to the bottom on all four sides, rotating a quarter-turn as you go. The bottom of the loaf may appear to be a collection of bunched ends, but it will flatten out during resting and baking. Shaping should take no more than 20 to 40 seconds 5. Preheat the oven to 450°F 6. Prepare a pizza peel with cornmeal or parchment, and allow the shaped loaf to rest on it for about 60 minutes. It does not need to be covered The bread may not rise much during this time 6. Lightly flour the bottom of the Emile Henry Bread Cloche with the gluten free 7. Thirty minutes before baking, preheat the top and bottom of a cloche near the center of the oven to 450ºF. all-purpose flour, about 2 tbsp. 7. Place the dough in the center and sprinkle the remaining sea salt on top. 8. Put the lid on and bake in the oven for 40 minutes. After 40 minutes, remove the lid, bake for

an additional 5-7 minutes. 9. Remove the cloche from the oven and let cool before slicing. 8. When the dough has rested, dust the top liberally with flour, then use a serrated knife to slash a ½-inch deep cross. 9. Slide the loaf off the peel and onto the preheated cloche Cover the bread with the top of the hot cloche. 10. Bake for about 25 minutes, remove the top of the cloche and continue baking for another 5 to 10 minutes, or until the crust is richly browned and firm to the touch. 11.

But it is easy to use your own favorite recipe in the device For best results, place between 7 and 8 ounces of bread dough in each cavity in the base. This is a batch of bread dough made from approximately 3 to 3 1/2 cups of flour. This amount of dough will expand to fill each cavity evenly. The first few times that you use your Emile Henry Baguette Baker or when you bake dough that is especially sticky, sprinkle the cavities in the base generously with flour. This will help keep the bread from sticking. You may also brush them very lightly with vegetable oil To shape your dough into a baguette, first divide the dough into

three uniform pieces. Then roll each piece of dough into a tight ball. Let the dough sit covered with a towel for a few minutes. For each piece of dough, first flatten it into a rectangle about 6 inches wide Roll up the dough from the widest edge into a tight cylinder. Pinch the edges to seal it Then roll the dough back and forth under the palms of your hands until it is slightly longer than the cavities in the Baguette Baker. Transfer the dough to the flour-dusted mold Before baking, adjust your rack so that it is in the center of the oven. Then preheat your oven. When the dough is ready to bake, simply place the covered Baguette Baker on the rack. Because all ovens behave differently, test the temperature the first few times you use the device. Once you remove the cover of the Baguette Baker, check the bread after 10 additional minutes of baking to be sure it is browning evenly. You may find that your oven bakes more quickly or more slowly. If your bread is beginning to brown

noticeably, you may want to reduce your oven temperature 25°F to 50°F. Conversely, if the loaves seem noticeably soft and pale, increase the oven temperature 25°F to 50°F Then finish baking If you would like to bake several batches of bread in your Baguette Baker, mix the dough in stages staggered about 45 minutes apart. While one batch of dough is baking, proof the next loaves. You can proof long loaves of bread dough between the folds of a floured linen towel. This preserves the shape of the dough When ready to bake, transfer the proofed dough into the Baguette baker. If the Baguette Baker is still warm, your bread will bake more quickly. Just be careful when handing the device if it is very hot Yield: 3 Baguettes 1 teaspoon fine sea salt 1 cup (8 fluid ounces) water, tepid (65-70°F) 1. Dissolve the yeast in the 3 Tablespoons of warm water Add the flour, salt and remaining water Knead by hand or in the bowl of a mixer fitted with the dough hook just until the ingredients are

moistened. Let sit for 10 minutes. 2. Knead the dough by hand or for 5 minutes on low speed in a mixer The dough will start to form a ball but will still be sticky and will adhere to the sides of the bowl. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula. Knead 5 more minutes until the dough is smooth and forms a ball It will be soft and elastic 3. Place the dough into a greased bowl Let it rise for 3 to 4 hours until more than doubled in bulk and small bubbles appear on the surface of the dough. 4. Press down the dough Let it rise for another hour Preheat the oven to 450°F 5. Working on a lightly floured surface, divide the sticky dough into 3 uniform pieces Roll each piece into a tight ball. 6. Roll out each piece of dough slightly longer than the length of the cavities in the mold 7. Dust the cavities in the Emile Henry Baguette Baker generously with flour Transfer the formed dough into the mold. Cover and let the dough proof until expanded 1 1/2 times in size, from 30 minutes to

an hour depending on the temperature of the dough and the temperature in your kitchen. 8. Sift a light layer of flour over the dough if desired Using a serrated knife, score the surface of the each loaf in three or four places. 9. Cover and place on the center rack of the oven Bake for 20 to 25 minutes Carefully remove the lid and continue to bake the baguettes for 10 to 15 more minutes until golden brown and crackling. 10.
