Plain HouseholdBread
1kg strong flour 625m tepid water 1 tab active dried yeast (not Surebake) 1tsp sugar 1 level tablespoon fine sea salt semolina for dusting.
Makes 2 loaves.
Mix water, yeast and sugar, leave 10 min to start working.Mix flour, salt , add liquid and mix to a soft dough, add more water if neccessary.Knead by hand or with a dough hook in a food mixer until very elastic - about 10 minutes.Return to bowl, cover and leave to rise at room temperature for 3 - 4 hours or until doubled in bulk OR in the fridge overnight.Punch down, cut in two and shape each into a loaf by folding edges into centre over and over until it forms a bouncy evenly shaped loaf.Dust with semolina and either place in loaf tins or on an oven tray.Leave to rise about 45 min at room temperature, bake at 200C for about 45 minutes or until dark golden brown.Cool COMPLETELY before cutting.
