Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- In a large bowl, mix the warm water with the dried yeast. Allow it to sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
- Once the yeast is activated, add the flour, salt, and olive oil to the bowl. Mix everything together until a rough dough forms.
- Transfer the dough onto a clean work surface. Knead it for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- After kneading, fold in the chopped wild garlic leaves, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Baking
- Once the dough has risen, punch it down and shape it into a round ball. Optionally wrap grated cheese inside the dough.
- On a baking tray lined with parchment paper, place the shaped dough. Cover it and let it rise for an additional 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).
- Score the top of the dough with a knife in a crisscross pattern.
- Bake in the oven for about 20-25 minutes until golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
- Let the bread cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
Best enjoyed warm with a variety of dips, cheeses, or just on its own. Store leftovers wrapped in a towel for optimal freshness or freeze for up to 3 months.
