Time 2h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 ¾ cups warm water (110 degrees F)
2 cups whole wheat flour
2 cups bread flour
2 teaspoons salt
1 egg white
2 tablespoons water

Steps:

  • In a small mixing bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the yeast mixture with the whole wheat flour, salt and one cup of the bread flour; stir well to combine. Add the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and supple, about 8 minutes.
  • Place into a lightly oiled bowl, and turn to coat the whole surface with oil. Cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes.
  • Punch down the dough, and let rest 10 minutes. Divide into 4 balls. Place on cookie sheets, and flatten into disks. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Lightly beat the egg white with the water and brush the risen loaves with this mixture. Bake at 375 degree F (190 degree C) for 40 to 50 minutes. When done bread should sound hollow when thumped on bottom. Remove from oven, and let cool.
  • Cut a circle out of the top of each loaf, and remove that part of the crust. Either remove the soft bread beneath, or compress it to form a bowl.

I got sick of waiting to go to a restaurant to get that warm bread bowl filled with a salad, soups or chili. Now I can have them at home!

Categories     Other Breads

Time 2h45m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 c warm water (110 - 115 degrees)
3 c flour (bread flour or ap flour)
1 tsp salt
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp sugar
1 pkg active dry yeast (2 1/4 tsp)
1 Tbsp chili powder

Steps:

  • 1. Place the ingredients in the order listed into the bread machine and run the dough cycle. When finished, lightly knead the dough on a clean and floured surface. Divide the dough into 6 equal parts and form into the shape of a ball. Lightly sprinkle cornmeal onto a baking sheet and place balls of dough on top and allow to rise. Let rise for about 30 minutes in a warm place. Bake at 350°F for 15-20 minutes or golden brown. Let cool slightly before cutting the tops out with a bread knife or scoup part of the inside out.
  • 2. For other seasonings, replace chili powder with other spices. Depending on what you are substituting, I would go shy rather than overboard with the spice. I have used italian seasonings 1 tsp each of oregano and basil and it has not been too strong. For plain bread bowls, do not use seasoning.

BREAD BOWLS FOR THE BREAD MACHINE



Bread Bowls for the Bread Machine image

I had been searching for a good bread bowl to use with a Zuppa Toscana Soup recipe that I have and I was shocked to see that Zaar didn't have so many. I finally found one that was suited my needs from Taste of Home. I've tweeked it a bit and now can make them easily with the help of my bread machine. The bread is somewhat sweet, great for chili, but if you don't like it so sweet, cut the sugar down to 2 Tbsp. I look forward to your comments.

Provided by CabinKat

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 2h20m

Yield 4 Bowls, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup warm water (110 - 115 degrees)
1/2 cup warm milk (110 - 115 degrees)
1 egg (room temperature)
2 tablespoons butter (softened)
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sugar
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
cornmeal, for baking pan

Steps:

  • Beat the egg and place along with milk and water in microwave container. Microwave for 40 seconds on high. Or you can warm the milk & water how you prefer and bring egg to room temperature. Place in bread machine in accordance to your machine, or follow ingredients as I have listed.
  • Add remaining ingredients and set on dough cycle. This is a 1.5 pound recipe.
  • Once cycle is complete, take out dough to a floured surface & cut into 4 equal sizes. Don't work the dough too much, just enough to shape into rounds. Spread a thin layer of cornmeal on baking pan. Place all four dough rounds on pan and cover with thin towel to let rise in non-drafty area for about an hour.
  • NOTE: I've come to find this recipe works best on dark pans rather than regular cookie sheets. It browns better on the bottom and gives the bowls a better dense texture to hold the fillings better.
  • Once doubled, bake in pre-heated oven at 350º for 20-25 minutes. If you are a higher elevation, bake 325º for 15-20 minutes. Or until golden brown.
  • Remove from pan and place on cooling rack.
  • For the bowls, cut a thin layer across top and hollow out to about 1/4-1/2 inch in thickness. Fill with your favorite chili, chowder, or stew.

EASY BREAD BOWLS



Easy Bread Bowls image

These are easy and quick. They only take about one hour after the dough is thawed. Then fill them with your favorite thick soup, chowder, chili, or stew. It will be fun to tear away the bread as you eat your soup and the two go great together. They will be good on a cool night. The time below does not include the thawing of the bread. One hint: To make the handling of the bread easier, make sure the bread has completely thawed but has not started to rise. You may also need to reshape the rounds after a few minutes on the cups by gently pushing the dough down and shaping as needed.

Provided by Molly Yeh

Categories     appetizer

Time 4h55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 cup (5 ounces/140 grams) diced pancetta
1 small yellow onion (120 grams), small dice
1 jalapeño (or serrano) pepper, minced (remove seeds for less spice)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced
Cooking oil, as needed
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 1/2 cups (340 grams) red lentils, rinsed and drained
One 14.5-ounce can crushed tomatoes
6 cups (1440 grams) low-sodium chicken broth
Freshly ground black pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil, whole milk Greek yogurt and fresh cilantro leaves, for serving
Bread Bowls, recipe follows (or you can just eat the soup in regular bowls)
5 1/4 cups (700 grams) bread flour, plus more for dusting
1/2 cup (50 grams) dry milk powder
2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 cups (480 grams) warm water
2 tablespoons (30 grams) olive oil, plus more for oiling the bowl

Steps:

  • Cook the pancetta in a heavy-bottomed 4- to 5-quart pot over medium heat, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon, until crisp and the fat has rendered, about 10 minutes. Add the onion and jalapeño pepper. Season with salt and sweat until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. (Add a little oil if your pot seems dry.) Add the cumin and coriander. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the lentils, can of tomatoes, chicken stock and a pinch of salt. Stir to combine, then increase the heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes to marry the flavors. Reduce to a simmer and cover. Cook until the lentils are tender, start checking at 20 minutes. Continue cooking, uncovered, stirring to break down the lentils and thicken the soup, another 10 to 15 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
  • Serve in bowls with a drizzle of olive oil, a dollop of yogurt and fresh cilantro leaves, or use the bread bowls. If using the bread bowls, cut a circle around the top of each with a paring knife, then gently pull out the tops. Remove some of the bread innards and have as a snack. Fill each bread bowl with hot soup and garnish with a dollop of yogurt and fresh cilantro leaves.
  • Combine the flour, milk powder, yeast and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer and whisk together. Add the water and oil and mix with the dough hook until a dough forms, scraping down the sides. Knead on medium-high speed until it pulls away from the side of the bowl and makes a smacking noise, 12 to 15 minutes. (The dough will be very sticky and soft, but do not add more flour.) Scrape out into a liberally oiled bowl, then toss to coat in the oil and cover in plastic. Allow to rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • Place an oven rack in the middle position. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Prepare a parchment or silicone mat-lined baking sheet. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured countertop and gently fold over onto itself to deflate some of the gas. Divide the dough into 4 pieces and roll into tight balls. Evenly space the balls on the prepared baking sheet and cover with plastic. Let proof until puffy and almost doubled; depending on the temperature, this can take anywhere from 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Snip the tops of the dough balls with scissors in an X and bake until golden brown and puffed up and they feel hollow when you tap, begin checking at 15 minutes. Let cool on a rack.
