Garlic Knots Recipe 455

Steps:

• For the dough, mix together the flour, yeast, and salt, and make a well in the middle.
• Pour the water and 1 teaspoon of olive oil into the well and mix together.
• Knead for about 7-10 minutes until the dough is springy.
• Line a bowl with the other teaspoon of olive oil, place the dough in the bowl, cover, and leave to rise in a warm place for 1 hour (or until doubled in size).
• Tear the dough into 9 separate balls and then roll into long tubes, folding over to make a knot.
• Place the knots on a baking tray.
• Bake in a 350°F (180°C) oven for 10 minutes.
• Prepare the garlic butter by mixing the butter, garlic, and parsley.
• Coat the knots with the butter mixture and bake for another 5 minutes.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Divide dough into 2 equal pieces and arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet a few inches apart. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature until softened and pliable, about 1 hour.
• Working with one piece at a time, use a lightly floured rolling pin to roll dough into a 6-inch square on a lightly floured surface. Cut into six 1-inch strips. Roll one strip to form a rope about 8 inches long, then tie into a single knot. Transfer to the parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat with remaining strips and second piece of dough, arranging the knots a few inches apart on the baking sheet. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let stand until puffed and doubled in size, about 2 hours.
• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Bake knots until golden on bottom, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, cook butter and oil over low heat until butter melts. Add garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and very fragrant, about 5 minutes. Scrape butter mixture into a large bowl, then stir in parsley and season with salt.
• In batches, toss the warm knots in the garlic butter until well coated. Sprinkle with Parmesan, if desired, and serve with marinara sauce.

Steps:

• For the dough: Combine the flour, yeast, kosher salt and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and stir to combine. Add the warm water and oil and beat until the dough comes together, about 2 minutes. If the dough is too wet, add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it is still soft and slightly sticky but you can turn it out. Knead on a lightly floured work surface if the dough is still shaggy. Lightly oil a large bowl. Transfer the dough to the oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let stand until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• For the garlic butter: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and wait for it to start sizzling, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the parsley and crushed red pepper flakes. Set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Lightly dust a work surface with flour. Turn the dough out onto the surface and divide the dough into 3 equal pieces. Divide each of those pieces into 6 pieces. Working 1 piece at a time, roll it out into a 6- to 7-inch rope, then tie the rope into a knot. Place the knot on the prepared baking sheet and repeat with the remaining dough.
• Brush the knots generously with the garlic butter and sprinkle lightly with the flaky sea salt. Bake until cooked through and golden all over, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Prepare Basic Pizza Dough as recipe instructs below and set aside to rise.
• Combine butter and garlic in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook until the garlic is fragrant and tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Cover, remove from the heat and set aside. Keep warm.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and lightly grease 2 large baking sheets. Set aside.
• Remove risen dough from the bowl and place on a lightly floured surface. Using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll dough out into a large rectangle, about 16 by 12 inches. Brush the dough lightly with the olive oil. Cut the dough in half lengthwise and then cut crosswise into strips about 1 1/4 inches wide. Tie each strip loosely into a knot, stretching gently if necessary, and place on prepared baking sheets about 2-inches apart. Sprinkle the tops of the knots with salt. Cover with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel and let rise in a warm, draft-free place for about 30 minutes.
• Bake until golden brown and risen, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and toss gently with the warm garlic butter, Pecorino Romano cheese, and parsley. Add salt to taste if necessary. Serve immediately.
• In a large bowl, combine the water, yeast, honey, and 1 tablespoon oil, stirring to combine. Let sit until the mixture is foamy, about 5 minutes.
• Add 1 1/2 cups of the flour and the salt, mixing by hand until it is all incorporated and the mixture is smooth. Continue adding the flour, 1/4 cup at a time, working the dough after each addition, until the dough is smooth but still slightly sticky. You may not need all of the flour. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth but still slightly tacky, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Oil a large mixing bowl with remaining olive oil. Place the dough in the bowl, turning to coat with the oil. Cover with plastic wrap and set in a warm place, free from drafts until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.

Steps:

• Mix flour and Greek yogurt together in a medium bowl until a shaggy dough forms. Transfer to a surface dusted with more self-rising flour, and knead for 8 to 10 minutes. Continue adding flour as needed if the dough is too sticky.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Combine melted butter, garlic, parsley, and salt in a small bowl.
• Cut the dough into 8 pieces, roughly 2 ounces each. Roll each segment into an even 12-inch log. Shape the logs into knots by forming a cross, wrapping the top piece around the bottom piece, then connecting the two ends. Press together tightly to seal.
• Move the knots to the prepared baking sheet and brush with garlic butter.
• Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Brush with remaining garlic butter, garnish with more parsley, and serve warm.
