Pan De Jamón Recipes

PAN DE JAMóN RECIPE

Steps:

• Dissolve the white sugar in the water.
• Add the yeast and let it rise for about 15 minutes.
• Once the yeast has risen, add the flour, yeast water, milk, two eggs, and three tablespoons of melted butter in the bowl of a mixer with the kneading hook.
• Process until a smooth dough forms. You may need to add a little more flour.
• Divide the dough into two, and make two balls. Put each ball in a large bowl with a few drops of olive oil. Brush the dough with the same oil to prevent the dough from drying out and cracking. Cover it with a damp kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let it rise for at least half an hour or until it doubles in size.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• On a floured surface, with a rolling pin, roll the dough into a rectangle measuring 15 by 20 inches and ¼ inch thick (40 cm x 50 cm and 5 mm thick.)
• Brush the dough with melted butter.
• Spread the brown sugar over the dough.
• Make a row with the whole stuffed olives on the edge that will be the center of the bread. Wrap the olives with the dough, and press with your fingers to ensure the olives stay in place.
• Add a good layer of ham on top of the olives row. Ham slices must overlap each other.
• Cover the rest of the dough with ham. Leave about 3 inches of dough uncovered. Instead of spreading the ham, put it folded or as if it were a ruffle.
• Add the bacon strips.
• Sprinkle with sliced ​​olives and raisins.
• Roll up carefully. The idea is that the roll is not tight but somewhat loose.
• Make a few cuts in the dough that remain uncovered, starting from the center and dividing into two, four, and eight strips. Wrap the loaf with those dough strips.
• With a fork, prick the bread all the way through.
• Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking dish.
• Transfer the bread to the baking tray. Cover it with a clean towel and let the bread rise for half an hour.
• In a bowl, make an egg wash. Beat the remaining egg with papelón syrup (or molasses) and brush the loaf.
• Bake for 30 minutes, rotating the tray every 10 minutes.
• The bread is ready once the crust is evenly golden.
• Remove from the oven and brush the loaf with melted butter.
• Let cool completely before slicing.

PAN DE JAMóN (VENEZUELAN HAM BREAD)

Steps:

• Make the bread: In a small pot over medium-low heat, scald milk. When milk is near boiling and bubbles form around the edge of the pot, remove from heat and let cool.
• In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup warm water and 2 tablespoons sugar and mix well. Add yeast and let rest for 5 minutes or until bubbly.
• Using a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whisk together 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) butter, the rest of the sugar and the salt on medium-low speed just to combine. With mixer running, add eggs, cooled scalded milk and yeast mixture. Mix on medium speed until thoroughly combined, about 2 minutes.
• Place flours in a medium bowl and whisk to combine. Change out the stand mixer attachment for a dough hook and slowly add flours to butter mixture about 1/2 cup at a time, until fully incorporated. The dough should pull away from the bowl's edges relatively cleanly. Let rest in bowl for about 5 minutes.
• Sprinkle all-purpose flour on a clean work surface. Scrape out dough and knead for 5 minutes. If dough is too sticky to handle, add a little more flour, but do not let it get too dry. Cut dough into 2 pieces.
• Roll each piece of dough with heavy rolling pin into a 15-by-20-inch rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Using a small offset spatula or butter knife, spread about 3 tablespoons butter in a thin layer over the top of the dough, just enough to cover.
• Fold dough into thirds like a letter: With the short end of the dough facing you, fold up from the bottom, and then fold down from the top. Then, take the letter-shaped dough and fold one more time lengthwise, making a small square.
• Wrap each of the pieces in plastic or place each one in a plastic bag and let them rest in the refrigerator for about 4 hours. Repeat process of rolling, buttering, folding and refrigerating 2 more times with both pieces of dough. This will take a total of 12 hours, but additional chilling time between rollings is O.K., allowing you to break up the process overnight. (For instance, the first rolling can be done the night before, followed by subsequent rollings the next day.)
• Remove dough from refrigerator and divide each piece into 2 equal sections, for 4 pieces of dough in total. Lightly flour a clean work surface and roll one piece into a thin 15-by-20-inch rectangle, rewrapping in plastic and returning the other pieces to the refrigerator.
• Fill the bread: Working lengthwise, put down a stripe of ham strips in a single layer. Below that place a stripe of bacon strips and below that, a sparse stripe of raisins and olives. (Make sure to use a light hand with the raisins and olives.) Repeat this pattern until the surface of the dough is covered.
• Take one of the short edges of the dough, and carefully roll it up, like a jelly roll, tucking it in as you go to make sure it is tight. When it is fully rolled, tuck the open edges on either side underneath the roll, and place the whole roll seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet so it doesn't pop open while baking. Repeat rolling-and-filling process with the other 3 pieces of dough. Place loaves on 2 baking sheets lined with parchment, 2 to a sheet. Cover loaves with a clean dish towel and let rise for 45 minutes.
• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Bake 2 loaves at a time for about 40 minutes, checking to make sure tops are becoming golden without burning. If loaves are browning too quickly, tent with foil.
• Prepare the glaze: While the bread bakes, add milk and sugar to a small bowl and stir to dissolve.
• At the 40-minute mark, pull the loaves out of the oven, and, using a pastry brush, glaze their tops. Bake for another 5 minutes, until the loaves have a slight sheen and are deep golden brown in color. Remove from oven and let bread rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

PAN DE JAMON (VENEZUELAN HAM BREAD)

Steps:

• In a medium bowl mix the warm water and 1 Tbsp sugar, until the sugar dissolves. Sprinkle the yeast over top and set aside for 5-10 minutes, until the yeast is softened and slightly foamy.
• Place 3 cups of flour in a large bowl along with the remaining 3 Tbsp sugar and salt. Mix to combine.
• Stir the yeast mixture and add it to the flour. Add the milk, beaten eggs, and butter. Mix until combined.
• Continue adding the remaining cup of flour until a soft dough comes together.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, until the dough is soft and smooth, adding flour as necessary to keep the dough from sticking to the counter or your hands.
• Place the dough in a clean, greased bowl. Cover it with a damp tea towel and let it rest in a warm, draft free place until doubled (generally 1-2 hours).
• Once the dough has risen, lightly dust your counter with flour and roll the dough out into a rectangle, roughly a ½ inch thick (10x15 inches).
• Cover the dough with the ham slices, arranging them almost to the edges. Sprinkle the raisins and olives over the ham.
• Once the fillings have been layered over the dough, tightly roll the dough up from the long edge. Tuck the edges under the roll and place it, seam side down on a greased baking sheet.
• Brush the loaf well with an egg wash of 1 egg white beaten with 1 Tbsp water.
• Let the dough rise, uncovered, in a warm, draft free place for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until very puffy.
• Near the end of this final rising time, preheat your oven to 375F.
• Bake the bread for 25-27 minutes, until the loaf starts to turn golden brown. Then, loosely tent the bread with aluminum foil (to keep it from browning too much) and continue baking for an additional 15 minutes. (It will bake around 40 minutes in total.) When finished, the loaf should feel firm when tapped. The internal temperature of the loaf should be 180-190F.
• Remove the bread from the oven. Let it cool on the pan for 10-15 minutes before carefully transferring it to a wire rack. Cool completely before slicing and serving.
• The bread will keep in an air tight container in the refrigerator for 1 week.

PAN DE JAMóN (VENEZUELAN HAM AND OLIVE BREAD)

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Place the warm water in the bowl of a stand mixer. Sprinkle the yeast over the water and let stand for 5 minutes.
• Add 1 cup of the flour, the butter, and egg, and mix well using the dough hook attachment.
• Add the softened butter and another cup of flour and mix well.
• Add the remaining ingredients and knead until smooth, adding a bit of extra flour if the dough is too sticky. When well kneaded, the dough should be soft, shiny, and smooth.
• Place the dough in an oiled bowl. Cover with plastic wrap, set in a warm location, and let rise until doubled in bulk, about 30 minutes.
• Divide the dough in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll half of the dough into a large rectangle about 10 x 12 inches.
• Brush the dough with 1 tablespoon of the melted butter. Place half of the ham slices over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border all around.
• Sprinkle half of the raisins and half of the olives around over the ham.
• Tightly roll up the dough lengthwise starting with the long edge, sealing the last part of the dough to the roll with some water.
• Place roll, seam side down, on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and tuck the ends under slightly. Repeat with the other half of dough.
• Mix the egg yolk with a teaspoon of sugar and brush the mixture onto the rolls with a pastry brush.
• Lightly cover the rolls with oiled plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for about an hour.
• Bake bread at 350 F for 30 to 40 minutes, until golden brown.
• Remove from oven, and let it cool slightly before slicing.

PAN DE JAMON (HAM BREAD)

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix the water and the sugar; add the yeast and let stand for 15 minutes until it has a "head".
• Add the butter to the warm milk, the sugar and the salt.
• Pour the milk onto the flour, mix and add the yeast.
• Make a dough and knead for 15 minutes.
• Beat down on a table and put in an oiled bowl and cover with a damp cloth.
• Set aside for an hour.
• Roll out the dough with a rolling pin.
• Coat with butter.
• Arange the ham, bacon, olives and the raisins (except for a small part at the end, so you can seal the bread up).
• Roll it up like a swiss roll and brush the"tongue" with some egg to seal it.
• Bake at 350° F for 3/4 of an hour.
• Serve cool.
• Can be kept in fridge for up to 4 days.
• Sprinkle with water and heat up on a low heat before serving.

PAN DE JAMóN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
• If the pizza dough is sticky to the touch, lightly flour your work surface. Roll out the dough to a 12-by-16-inch rectangle that's about 1/8 inch thick.
• Shingle the ham over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border on the two short sides. Sprinkle the olives and raisins evenly on top.
• Starting at the long side farthest from you, roll the dough towards you into a log. Place it, seam-side down, on the prepared baking sheet.
• Beat the egg with a splash of water in a small bowl and brush generously over the log. Poke along the top of the log several times with a fork, without piercing all the way through the dough.
• Bake until the top is a deep golden brown, about 60 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes, then slice crosswise with a serrated knife and serve.
