QUICK HERB AND CHEESE MONKEY BREAD

Steps:

• Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Spray a bundt or tube pan lightly with cooking spray.
• Toss the Parmesan, oregano, garlic, rosemary and thyme in a small bowl until well mixed. Roll each biscuit half into a ball. Put 8 of the balls in a medium bowl and drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the oil, tossing until well coated. Transfer each ball to the Parmesan mixture to coat, then place in the prepared pan. Working in batches of 8, repeat with the remaining dough balls, overlapping in the pan as necessary.
• Bake until the dough is puffed and browned, about 50 minutes; check halfway through the baking time and tent with foil if the bread is browning too quickly.
• Let the bread cool 10 minutes. Loosen the bread from the sides of the pan with a thin spatula. Invert the pan onto a baking sheet, then flip the bread (decorative-side up) onto a serving plate.

DURUM HERB CHEESE SOURDOUGH BREAD

Steps:

• Sauté the herbs, garlic, and pepper in olive oil and set aside to cool. If you want impressive garlic power, use all four cloves (or more) and just warm the minced garlic in the oil. If you want muted garlic flavor, you can reduce the quantity of garlic and/or heat to the point of softness.
• Measure and prepare in a bowl the dry ingredients of the dough, including the cheese.
• Add the water, starter and sautéed ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix.
• Cover the dough and set it aside at room temp for one hour.
• After one hour, stretch and fold the dough four times as per the first video here. To summarize the video instructions: scrape the dough loose from the bowl with a wet scraper, lift it out with two hands, fold it in thirds. Then do the same from the opposite sides of the dough.
• Put the dough back in the bowl, cover and set a timer for twenty minutes.
• Repeat this three more times. This is four stretch and folds over the course of the second hour since mixing (1:00, 1:20, 1:40 and 2:00 hours). You should notice a big difference in the pliability of the dough over the course of the stretching and folding.
• Let dough ferment for an additional 6-12 hours depending on room temp (that is 8-14 hours total since mixing up the dough).
• Scrape the dough out of its bowl onto a well-floured counter. Gently spread the dough into a rectangle. Fold the dough in thirds and then in half. See this Breadtopia video for more details on folding and shaping.
• Let the dough rest for 15 minutes while you wash the dough bowl and prep your proofing basket. I sprinkled flour directly into an oval coiled rattan basket.
• Flour your hands and the dough, flip the dough, tuck under the edges while rotating it to create a batard shape.
• Lay your dough in the basket, seam side down and cover.
• Put the basket in the refrigerator for about 10 hours (up to 20) OR leave the basket at room temperature for about 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven and your baking vessel to 500 F for thirty minutes before the proofing time is up.
• Flour your hand and flip the dough out of the basket, and place it into the hot baking vessel. Score it with a razor or allow the existing seams to open up.
• Bake until the internal temp is around 205 F.
• 30 minutes at 500 degrees, lid on.
• 10 minutes at 450 degrees, lid off.
• Variations
• Eliminate the stretching and folding. The loaf may be a bit flatter, but the crumb will still be open and the taste delicious.
• Reserve the herb-garlic sauté until after the bulk fermentation, and then spread it onto the dough when you fold it in thirds. This works best if you strain or squeeze out the oil from the sauté. The crumb will have a swirly pattern of herbs.
• Use mozzarella cheese cut in chunks instead of provolone. The crumb will be open from the melting chunks and the cheese flavor is milder. Consider adding an additional 1/2 tsp of salt.
• Use provolone in slices that you add after the bulk fermentation and while folding in thirds. This creates a strange crumb with long open layers.
• (Pictures of these variations are below the photographic instructions.)

COTTAGE CHEESE LAVENDER HERB BREAD (ABM)

Steps:

• Place all ingredients except cornmeal in bread pan of your bread machine as manufacturer reccomenda. Select dough setting and press start.
• When dough cycle has finished, remove dough from pan and turn out onto a lightly oiled surface. (I use a nonstick cooking spray. Form dough into an oval, cover with a plastic wrap and let rest for 10 minutes.
• After resting, turn dough bottom side up and press to flatten. For baguettes (long, slender) or boules (round), divide the dough into 2 pieces and shape. For baguettes, fold dough into an envelope by folding the top 1/3 of the way to the bottom. Then fold the bottom a 1/3 of the way over the top. Then press dough with the palm of your hand to make an indentation down the center of the dough and fold the top completely to the bottom, sealing the seam with the palm of your hand.
• Place on a jelly roll pan dusted with cornmeal. Cover and place in a warm spot to rise until the dough is doubled in bulk, approximately 30 to 50 minutes (depending on how warm your room is).
• Oven Rising:.
• Sometimes I use my oven for the rising. Turn the oven on for a minute or so, then turn it off again. This will warm the oven and make it a great environment for rising bread. If you can't comfortably press your hand against the inside of the oven door, the oven is too hot. Let it stand open to cool a bit.
• Cool or Refrigerator Rise:.
• If I don't have the time to wait for the rise to finish or I know that I will be interrupted before the completed rise, I do a cool rise. A cool rise is when the dough is place in the refrigerator and left to rise slowly over night approximately 8 to 12 hours. I usually do this after the first rise and the dough has been shaped into a loaf.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. After rising, slash or score the loaves with a very sharp knife making three 1/2-inch deep diagonal slashes. Bake for 20 minutes or until nicely browned and hollow sounding when tapped.
