Caraway Cheese Bread Recipes

CARAWAY BREAD

Steps:

• In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. In a large bowl, combine caraway seeds, salt, honey, yeast mixture, whole wheat flour and 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour; beat on medium speed until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a stiff dough (dough will be sticky)., Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour., Grease a 15x10x1-in. baking pan; sprinkle with cornmeal. Punch down dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface. Shape into a round loaf; place on prepared pan. Cover with greased plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until almost doubled, about 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 425°., Using a sharp knife, cut a large "X" in top of loaf. Bake on a lower oven rack 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan to a wire rack to cool.

CARAWAY CHEESE BREAD (TRADITIONAL)

Steps:

• (original ingredients for 2 loaves) Most of the ingredients were divided in half, but I used slightly less than half the amount of water so that I would not exceed the maximum of 3 cups of flour for my bread machine. (This also has the effect of intensifying the cheese flavor.) I also used slightly less than half the amount of yeast, because this bread rises very high and will overflow the pan if I dont use LEVEL teaspoons of yeast. The amount of salt was reduced slightly below half due to personal taste. >From: [email protected] (Bonnie Briscoe) From: Bread-Bakers Archives: ftp.best.com/pub/reggie/archives/bread/recipe
