Bread Ingredients

Method

Bread Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    Add the olive oil, salt, and flour gradually to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms.

  3. 3

    Knead the Dough

    Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  4. 4

    First Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.

  5. 5

    Shape the Loaf

    Once risen, punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf. Place it in a greased loaf pan.

  6. 6

    Second Rise

    Cover the loaf with a cloth and let it rise again for about 30 minutes.

  7. 7

    Bake the Bread

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the loaf for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.

  8. 8

    Cool

    Remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Butter Directions

  1. 9

    Prepare the Butter

    In a medium bowl, soften the unsalted butter at room temperature until creamy.

  2. 10

    Add Flavorings

    Add garlic powder, fresh parsley, and salt to the butter. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

  3. 11

    Chill

    Transfer the flavored butter to a small dish or roll it in parchment paper to form a log. Refrigerate until firm.
