I have decided to take another savory course to help me further my talents as a chef. I like the European countries and went on to peruse it. Our first week was a lovey journey to the British Isle. If I ever travel across the ocean this is where I want to land. The food is very tasty and wholesome. We made , Roast beef, Yorkshire pudding, strawberry short cake, Cheese and Herb bread, Chubs. SO much food for a short period of time.
Here is the recipe for Cheese and Herb bread. I love this bread. It has a nice flavor and is great warm with butter.
1 tsp Sugar
1 1/4 cup Water, warm about 105*F, 40.5*C
2 1/4 tsp Active Dry Yeast
As Needed Butter
3 Cups All Purpose Flour
1/2 cup Bread Flour
2tsp Salt
1tsp Dry Mustard
1/2 tsp white pepper
1 tbsp Chives, chopped
2tbsp Parsley, chopped
2 cups Cheddar Cheese, grated ( I used M. Jack cheese)
Pre heat oven to 375*F
Dissolve sugar in water and sprinkle yeast over the top. Let stand for 10-12 min. until frothy,
Butter 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 3 3/4 in loaf pan. Your basic bread loaf pan
Sift the flours, salt, mustard and pepper into a bowl. Stir in the chives and parsley and three- quarters of the cheese. Add the yeast liquid to the dry ingredients and mix to a soft, smooth dough, 8-12 min. Using the hook attachment on your mixer. Turn out onto a floured surface and round. Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead 2-3 minutes.
Fit into prepared pan. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 40-50 min.
Sprinkle the top with the remaining cheese. Bake 45 min, until well risen and golden brown. Turn out and cool on rack.
This is a great savory bread for hearty meals.
