Flat Bread With Rosemary And Olive Oil Recipes

GRILLED FLATBREADS WITH ROSEMARY OIL

Steps:

• Follow my basic bread recipe through steps 1 to 4. After the dough has doubled in size, you need to knock the air out of it by bashing it around for a minute. Now it's ready to be transformed into pizzas or flatbreads.
• Tear off chunks of the dough and roll out your bread, shaping into slightly irregular oval shape rounds, about 0.5cm thick.
• Oil the grill on the barbie, then lay the flatbreads on top of the grill and cook them for about 3 minutes. Turn them over and cook for another 3 minutes until they are golden brown, crispy and slightly charred - this'll give them a real barbecued flavour.
• Take the flatbreads off the barbie. Mix a couple of lugs of olive oil with the rosemary leaves and brush (or drizzle) over the hot breads. Sprinkle with salt and serve straight away while still warm.

ROSEMARY AND OLIVE OIL FLATBREAD

Steps:

• Put yeast and water into the bowl of a mixer; stir to dissolve. Add oil and sugar. Stir in 1 1/2 tablespoons salt, then flour, 1 cup at a time, until dough comes together. Attach bowl to mixer fitted with the dough hook. Mix until smooth, about 2 minutes. Let rest in bowl, loosely covered with a damp towel, 20 minutes.
• Return dough to mixer; mix until it is smooth, about 5 minutes. Transfer dough to a large oiled bowl. Refrigerate, loosely covered, at least 6 hours or overnight.
• Remove dough from the refrigerator; let dough stand until it comes to room temperature, about 1 1/2 hours. Place a pizza stone or baking sheet in cold oven.
• Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Divide the dough into 4 pieces. On a lightly floured work surface, gently stretch each piece into an 8-inch round; brush with oil. Sprinkle garlic and rosemary over tops; season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with oil.
• Dust a pizza peel or baking sheet with cornmeal. Place 1 flatbread on peel; slide onto pizza stone. Repeat with remaining pieces. Bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Garnish with rosemary. Sprinkle with salt. Drizzle with oil.

ROSEMARY FLATBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven 400 degrees F. In a mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast in the water. Add 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, rosemary, garlic, flour, salt and cheese. Mix and knead well by hand until you have a smooth ball of dough. Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover with a damp cloth. Let the dough rise until double in size, about 1 hour. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and punch down. Divide the dough into 4 pieces. Round each piece of dough. Using your fingers, flatten each round of dough, very thin. Brush each round with olive oil and sprinkle with cheese and kosher salt. Place the dough on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven. Spread both sides of the bread with the horseradish mayonnaise. Layer the beef, cheese, red onions and tomatoes, in-between the bread. Place on a platter and serve with Zaps.

AUTHENTIC OLIVE-ROSEMARY BREAD - COOK'S ILLUSTRATED

Steps:

• Whisk water, yeast, and honey in bowl of standing mixer. Add flours and mix on low speed with dough hook until cohesive dough is formed, about 3 minutes. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes.
• Remove plastic wrap; make well in center of dough and add salt and rosemary. Knead dough on low speed for 5 minutes. Increase speed to medium and continue to knead until dough is smooth and slightly tacky, about 1 minute. If dough is very sticky, add 1-2 tablespoons flour and continue mixing for 1 minutes. Transfer dough to lightly floured counter and pat into 12x6-inch rectangle.
• Press olives into dough. Starting at long side, roll rectangle into tight log. With seam side facing up, roll log into coil. Transfer dough, spiral side up, to oiled container or bowl, at least 2 quarts in volume, and cover with plastic wrap. Let dough rise in warm, draft-free location until it increases in size by 50 percent, about 1 hour.
• Fold partially risen dough over itself. Turn bowl 90 degrees; fold again. Turn bowl again; fold once more. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise 30 minutes.
• Repeat folding, replace plastic wrap, and let rise until doubled in volume, about 30 more minutes.
• Transfer dough to lightly floured work surface, being careful not to deflate. Divide dough in half, loosely shape each piece into ball, and let rise 15 minutes. Flip each ball over and, starting from top, roll into tight oval shape. Using palms, roll each oval from center outward until 12-inch loaf is formed. Poke any olives that fall off into bottom seam, then pinch seam closed.
• Transfer each loaf, seam side down, to 12x6-inch piece of parchment and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise until doubled in size, 1-1 1/2 hours (dough is ready when it springs back slowly when pressed lightly with finger.).
• Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position; place baking stone on rack, and heat oven to 450°F at least 30 minutes before baking.
• Slide parchment sheets with loaves onto peal or back of inverted baking sheet. Starting and stopping about 1 inch from each side, use razor blade or sharp knife to cut three 1/2-inch deep slashes on diagonal along top of each fully risen loaf. Use a spray bottle filled with water to spray loaves lightly with water. Carefully slide parchment with loaves into oven using jerking motion.
• Bake 15 minutes, spraying loaves with water twice more in the first 5 minutes, and then reduce oven temperature to 375°F Continue to bake until bread is deep golden brown and instant-read thermometer inserted into center of loaf registers 210°F, 25-30 minutes. Transfer to wire rack, discard parchment, and cool loaves to room temperature, about 2 hours.

GARLIC-ROSEMARY FLATBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a small saucepan, heat butter and oil over medium heat. Add garlic and salt; cook, stirring, until garlic is fragrant but not browned, about 1 minute. Remove from heat; set aside.
• Sprinkle the bottom of two rimmed baking sheets with cornmeal. Divide the dough into four equal pieces. Roll out each piece into a 1/4-inch-thick round. Arrange two rounds on each sheet. Brush with butter mixture, leaving most of the garlic behind. Sprinkle rounds with chopped rosemary; arrange a few small sprigs on top of each.
• Bake flatbreads until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly. Drizzle with oil, and season with salt. Serve warm or at room temperature.

ROSEMARY FLATBREADS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup warm water; stir in honey. Add 1/4 cup flour; mix until almost smooth. Let stand 30 minutes or until bubbly., Place remaining flour, remaining warm water, oil, rosemary and salt in a food processor; add yeast mixture. Process until dough forms a ball. Process 1 minute more to knead dough, pulsing as needed., Transfer to a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour., Preheat oven to 425°. Punch down dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide and shape dough into 6 balls. On greased baking sheets, pat each ball into a 5-in. circle. For topping, brush tops with oil; sprinkle with rosemary and salt. Bake 8-12 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm. Freeze option: Freeze cooled flatbreads in a freezer container. To use, thaw at room temperature or microwave each flatbread on high until heated through, 10-15 seconds.

ROSEMARY FLAT BREAD

Steps:

• Mix and knead dough:
• In bowl of stand mixer fitted with whisk attachment, whisk together bread flour, whole-wheat flour, and yeast, then whisk in sea salt. Whisk in water, honey, and 1/4 cup olive oil.
• Attach dough hook to stand mixer and mix on low (#2 on Kitchen Aid) until dough begins to pull away from sides of bowl, about 3 minutes. (Dough should be very sticky to touch and should not pull away from bowl completely. However, if dough does not pull away at all, gradually beat in up to 1/4 cup additional flour.)
• First rise:
• Using vegetable oil or nonstick vegetable-oil spray, lightly oil 3-quart or larger bowl (or dough-rising container). Transfer dough to bowl and lightly oil or spray top of dough. Using tape, mark outside of bowl to approximately double current height of dough. Cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap and let dough rise in warm place (75°F to 80°F, see Chef's Notes) 30 minutes. Using oiled hands, transfer dough to lightly oiled work surface. Gently stretch bottom of dough and fold up to center, then repeat with left side, right side, and top. Round dough package then transfer to bowl, smooth side up, and lightly oil or spray top of dough. Cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap. Let dough rise until doubled in size and depression holds when pressed gently with fingertip, about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Shaping and second rise:
• Brush heavy baking sheet with 2 teaspoons olive oil. Transfer dough to sheet and, using fingertips, very gently press into 12-by 5-by 1/2-inch rectangle. Brush top of dough with remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil.
• Lightly coat sheet of plastic wrap with vegetable oil or nonstick vegetable-oil spray. Cover dough with oiled plastic wrap and let rise in warm place until doubled in size and depression very slowly fills in when pressed gently with fingertip, about 1 hour.
• Bake bread:
• While dough is rising, position rack near bottom of oven and top with baking stone or heavy baking sheet. Set aluminum-foil-lined cast-iron pan or heavy rimmed baking pan on floor of oven and preheat oven to 475°F for 1 hour.
• Using fingertips, deeply dimple dough all over. Sprinkle with rosemary, coarse salt, and pepper. Quickly transfer baking sheet to hot baking stone (see Chef's Notes) and add 1/2 cup ice cubes to pan beneath.
• Bake bread, rotating pan 180 degrees halfway through, until top is golden brown and skewer inserted into center comes out clean (instant-read thermometer inserted into center will register about 210°F), 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer bread from baking sheet to rack to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature.
• Chef's Notes:
• •Dough rises best around 75°F to 80°F. If your house is on the cold side, you can set a container of very hot tap water near the rising dough and cover the dough and the hot water with a large plastic container or bowl-you will need to reheat the water every 30 to 40 minutes. Alternatively you can place the dough (and the small container of very hot water) in a microwave oven (not turned on) or a standard oven without a pilot light, but with the oven light turned on to provide gentle heat. •If you want to make this bread over a 2-day period, you can refrigerate it overnight after the first rise. Once it has doubled in size (first rise), gently press the dough down in the bowl, then transfer to a large, re-sealable freezer bag that's been coated with vegetable oil or nonstick vegetable-oil spray. Leave a small end of the bag unsealed to allow for gas to escape during fermentation and refrigerate the dough overnight. The next day, bring the dough to room temperature at least 1 hour before shaping and baking the loaf. •For proper texture, it's important for the bread to get a blast of heat as soon as it goes into the oven. For this reason, the oven needs to be preheated for a full hour, and it's important not to let too much heat escape when you put the bread in. When transferring the dough to the oven to bake, be sure to shut the door quickly.

ROSEMARY OLIVE OIL BREAD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Lightly coat a loaf pan with vegetable cooking spray.
• Stir together flour, sugar, walnuts, baking powder, rosemary, salt and lemon zest in bowl.
• In a separate bowl, mix eggs, wine, and olive oil, then stir into dry ingredients.
• Transfer the batter into pan and smooth the surface.
• Bake 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

ROSEMARY OLIVE OIL BREAD

Steps:

• Combine the flour, yeast, and salt in a food processor. Turn on the machine and add the olive oil through the feed tube, followed by 3/4 cup water. Process for about 30 seconds, adding more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the mixture forms a ball and is slightly sticky to the touch.
• Turn the dough onto a floured work surface and, by hand, knead in the rosemary until the dough feels smooth. Put it in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise until the dough doubles in size, about 2 hours. (You can cut this rising time as short as 1 hour if you are in a hurry, or you can let the dough rise more slowly, in the refrigerator, for up to 8 hours. At this point, you may also wrap the dough tightly in plastic and freeze for up to a month; defrost in a covered bowl in the refrigerator or at room temperature.)
• Lightly dust a work surface with flour. Shape the dough into a boule, sprinkling with flour as necessary but keeping it to a minimum. Line a colander or large bowl with a well-floured kitchen towel, set the loaf in the bowl, and cover with another towel (this keeps it from spreading too much). Let the dough rise for at least an hour and preferably longer, up to 2 hours.
• About 45 minutes before the dough has risen, heat the oven to 425°F. Put an ovenproof skillet (preferably cast iron) on the floor or the lowest rack while the oven heats. If you're using a baking stone, put it on the rack above the skillet while the oven heats; if not, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Once you're ready to bake, slide or turn the dough out onto a lightly floured peel or flexible cutting board, seam side down, or just transfer it to the prepared baking sheet. Rub the loaf with a little flour (this helps prevent scorching) and slash the top with a sharp knife or razor blade. Use the peel or cutting board to slide the loaf onto the baking stone or slide the baking sheet into the oven. Partially pull out the rack with the heated skillet and very carefully pour 1 cup hot water into the skillet (it will create a lot of steam). Slide the rack back in and immediately close the oven door
• Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, turning the bread or the baking sheet halfway through, until the crust is golden brown, the bottom sounds hollow when tapped, and the internal temperature reaches 200°F on a quick-read thermometer. If the bread is browning too quickly, lower the temperature to 400°F. Remove and cool on a wire rack.
• Variations:
• Rosemary Olive Oil Bread With Olives or Tomatoes: In Step 2, knead 1 cup halved pitted oil-cured olives, roughly chopped dried tomatoes, or a combination into the dough along with the rosemary.
• Olive Oil Bread With Onions and Mint: A nice combo; you can make this with olives too (see the preceding variation), but omit the rosemary. In Step 2, knead 1 large onion, chopped, into the dough in place of or along with the olives. Add 1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint if you like.
• Pancetta and Black Pepper Bread: Rich, savory, and packed with flavor: You can use olive oil here if you'd rather not use the pancetta pan drippings: Omit the rosemary. Chop 1 pound pancetta (or bacon) and cook until it's crisp. Drain the meat and set it aside, reserving 1/3 cup of the rendered fat. If you don't have enough, add olive oil or good-quality lard to make up the balance. Proceed with the recipe, using the reserved fat in place of the oil. In Step 2, knead in the pancetta pieces and 2 tablespoons coarsely ground black pepper.
