Description
Roasted Garlic Rosemary Artisan Bread is a true homemade masterpiece that will transport your senses to a cozy, rustic bakery.
Ingredients
- 1 bulb garlic
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon instant yeast
- 1 1/2 cup warm water
- 2 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Slice the top off the garlic bulb, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, wrap in foil, and roast for 40 minutes until the garlic is soft and fragrant. Allow the roasted garlic to cool slightly, then squeeze the cloves out of their skins.
2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and instant yeast. Add the warm water and mix until a sticky dough forms. Incorporate the roasted garlic (squeezed from the skins) and chopped rosemary, then drizzle with olive oil and stir to combine.
3. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let the dough rise at room temperature for 8–10 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
4. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and shape it into a round loaf. Place the dough on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
5. Cover the shaped dough and let it rise for an additional 1–2 hours.
6. Preheat your oven to 450°F. Place a Dutch oven with its lid inside to heat up.
7. Once the oven is preheated, carefully remove the Dutch oven, place the dough with the parchment paper inside, cover, and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the lid and bake for an additional 15–20 minutes, or until the crust is a beautiful golden brown.
8. Remove the bread from the Dutch oven and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Enjoy the warm, fragrant slices of Roasted Garlic Rosemary Artisan Bread with your favorite accompaniments.
Notes
Start with the best quality ingredients you can find, from the all-purpose flour to the fresh rosemary. This will ensure maximum flavor and texture in your final loaf.
Pay close attention to the hydration level of your dough, as the right balance of water and flour is crucial for achieving the desired crumb structure and crust.
Carefully monitor the temperature of your dough during the rising and baking process, as fluctuations can affect the overall outcome.
