I dusted off my Paul Hollywood’s baking book. Last Tuesday on Bake Off they were excelling at making focaccias and bread sticks, I had a warm up today with these posh little French things. Having tasted a couple, 15 minutes after baking them I think they could have had more flavour in them, so this weekend I’ll try to make Hollywood’s ciabatta bread sticks with cheese and olives, there will be no problem with lack of flavour!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The dough was unbelievably tricky. Super runny, needed a heavy dusting of flour to come anywhere near handling it. I started off with 250 g of strong white bread flour, 5 g of salt, 10 g of fresh yeast, 200ml of tepid water, which kitchen aid worked into a mess barely resembling something one can handle. A drizzle of olive oil was also added towards the end and it was POURED into a well oiled, rectangular container for proving. When tipped out, it looked like that; <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I then laboriously shaped it into something resembling sticks, sprinkled with salt, oregano and some of my truffle butter from Italy ( original recipe wanted truffle oil, I don’t buy any anymore as it goes off quickly and I tend it waste it). The shaped dough proved for another 30-40 minutes and went into the oven for about 11 minutes in 230 degrees. More truffle butter on top once baked. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They’re nice and crunchy, in our bread loving family they won’t last beyond this evening, next time however- olives and cheese ones. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n
