Steps:
- Place the water and yeast in the bowl of an electric mixer and allow the yeast to bloom for about 5 minutes. Using a dough hook attachment, add the flour and sugar to the water and mix on low speed until a dough starts to form. Drizzle the oil and salt into the dough and beat on medium speed for 8 to 10 minutes, or until a smooth, firm, elastic dough is formed.
- Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl and spray the dough with a thin coating of cooking spray. Wrap the bowl with plastic wrap and set aside to proof in a warm, draft-free place for 11/2 hours or until doubled in size. Remove the plastic wrap, punch down and flatten the rounded dough with the heel of your hand. Roll the dough up tightly, sealing the seam well after each roll. The dough should be elongated and oval-shaped, with tapered and rounded (not pointed) ends.
- Preheat the oven lined with a pizza stone to 425 degrees F. Alternately, an inverted baking sheet may be used in place of a pizza stone.
- Place the dough on a baker's peel heavily dusted with semolina flour, or cornmeal, or alternately on an inverted baking sheet. Allow the dough to proof, loosely covered with a damp towel, for 30 minutes, or until doubled in size. Brush the dough with the egg white and sprinkle the sesame seeds over the top. Using a razor blade or sharp knife, score 3 (1/4-inch deep) slashes across the top of the dough at a 45 degree angle.
- Spray the dough generously with water from a water bottle and place in the oven on the baking stone. Immediately close the oven and bake for 3 minutes. Open the oven door and spray the dough again with the water bottle. Close the oven door and bake for an additional 3 minutes before spraying the dough for a third time (the spraying of the dough will ensure a crisp golden brown crust). Bake the dough for 45 minutes, or until a hollow thud is heard when the bread is whacked with the bowl of a wooden spoon. Allow the bread to cool slightly before serving.
ITALIAN BREAD
This is a versatile recipe that makes a lovely loaf of bread. It can also be made into rolls instead of loaves, and the addition of roasted garlic or spices makes it a wonderful taste treat. Makes 2 loaves or 6 rolls

Steps:
- In large bowl thoroughly mix 1 1/2 cups flour, sugar, salt and undissolved yeast.
- Add butter.
- Gradually add warm water to dry ingredients and beat 2 minutes with mixer at medium speed, scraping bowl occasionally.
- Add 3/4 cup flour.
- Beat at high speed for 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally.
- Stir in enough additional flour to make a stiff dough.
- Turn dough onto a lightly floured board and knead until smooth and elastic (about 8-10 minutes).
- Cover dough with plastic wrap and then a towel and let it rest for 20 minutes.
- To make loaves: Divide dough in half.
- Roll each half into a 15x10 inch rectangle.
- Starting at wide side, roll up tightly; pinch seam to seal.
- Taper ends by rolling gently back and forth.
- To make rolls: Divide dough into 6 equal pieces.
- Roll each piece into a rectangle 8x5 inches.
- Starting with wide side, roll up tightly; pinch seam to seal.
- Taper ends.
- Place the shaped dough seam side down on greased baking sheets sprinkled with cornmeal.
- Brush dough with oil.
- Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate 2-24 hours.
- When ready to bake, remove from refrigerator and uncover carefully.
- Let dough stand at room temperature for 10 minutes.
- Make 3 or 4 diagonal slits in dough with a sharp knife or razor blade.
- Bake at 425°F for 15 minutes for rolls, 20 minutes for loaves.
- Remove from oven and brush with egg white beaten with cold water.
- Return to oven; bake 5-10 minutes longer, or until golden.
- **Note: I sometimes add 1/2 to 1 teaspoon (adjust amounts to your preferences) of dried oregano OR basil OR rosemary to the dry ingredients.
- Sometimes I also add 1 bulb (head) of roasted garlic cloves to the dry ingredients.
- To roast garlic: Peel as much of the outer skin away as possible, leaving the cloves unpeeled and the head intact (optional: trim the tips of the cloves off to expose the"meat" to the oil).
- Place head (s) in covered casserole or on a piece of heavy aluminum foil.
- Drizzle with olive oil, and bake covered at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes (mine takes over an hour in a terra-cotta garlic baker), or until cloves are soft and can be squeezed easily out of their skins.
- Let roasted garlic cool before adding to the flour for the bread.

FLUFFY ITALIAN BREAD
I found this recipe in Taste of Home Magazine, recipe by Elsie Palmer. I just received my first KitchenAid Mixer for Christmas and couldn't wait to try it on making bread dough and decided to try this recipe, although I only made half, one loaf. Times don't include rising and cooling times.

Steps:
- Stir the yeast into lukewarm water and set aside.
- Combine 5 cups flour, sugar and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer. Add the yeast mixture, remaining water and olive oil. Using a dough hook attachment, mix on lowest speed of electric mixer (stir setting on a KitchenAid) until a dough starts to form, adding more flour as needed. Knead on low speed (2 on a KitchenAid) for 7 minutes. Transfer dough to lightly floured surface and need by hand for 1 to 2 minutes, or until a smooth, firm, elastic dough is formed.
- Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl and spray the dough with a thin coating of cooking spray. Wrap the bowl with plastic wrap and set aside to proof in a warm place for 1½ hours or until doubled in size. I usually put mine in a SLIGHTLY warmed oven.
- Remove the plastic wrap, punch down and flatten the rounded dough with the heel of your hand. Roll the dough up tightly, sealing the seam well after each roll.
- Preheat the oven to 425°F and place an empty baking pan on bottom rack. This will be used later to create steam.
- Place the dough on a inverted baking sheet that has been dusted with flour. Cover with a towel, for 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.
- Brush the dough with the egg white, and then slash the dough lengthwise about 1/4-inch deep in three spots.
- Place the pan of dough on the top rack, and pour a large cup of water into the warmed baking pan on the bottom rack.
- Bake for 45 minutes, or until a hollow thud is heard when tapping the bottom of the bread. Allow the bread to cool before slicing.

- Combine yeast, sugar, and 1 cup warm water in bowl of a heavy-duty electric stand mixer; let stand 5 minutes. Add 2 cups flour, oil, and salt to bowl, and beat at low speed, using dough hook attachment, 1 minute. Gradually add additional flour until dough begins to leave the sides of the bowl and pull together. (Note: The dough will take on a "shaggy" appearance as the flour is being added. When enough flour has been added, the dough will look soft and smooth, not wet and sticky or overly dry with a rough surface.)
- Increase speed to medium, and beat 5 minutes. Cover bowl of dough with plastic wrap, and let stand in a warm place (85°), free from drafts, 30 minutes or until doubled in bulk. Punch dough down, and let stand 10 minutes.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; shape dough into a 12-inch loaf, and place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Cut 3 (1/4-inch deep) slits across top of dough with a sharp paring knife. (The slits release interior steam and prevent the loaf from blowing apart at the side.)

20 POPULAR ITALIAN BREADS - INSANELY GOOD
From insanelygoodrecipes.com
5/5 (1)Published 2021-11-29Category Recipe Roundup
- Panettone. Kicking off the tour of Italian bread is panettone. This fruity sweet bread is a classic that’s most often served at Christmas time. It has a buttery cake-like texture with a hint of citrus from the orange and lemon zest.
- Focaccia Bread. There is a special place in my heart that’s reserved for this focaccia bread. It’s so buttery that I have to hold back from eating the whole thing.
- Ciabatta Bread. Ciabatta is a very popular Italian bread you can easily find in the states. It has a gorgeous crumb, which is the pattern of the holes inside.
- Pane di Pasqua (Italian Easter Bread) I look forward to this bread every spring. Pane di Pasqua is a braided Italian Easter bread that gets a gorgeous sheen from the egg wash.
- Grissini (Crispy Italian Breadsticks) Grissini is Italian breadsticks that are thin and crispy. Snacks, lunches, or dinners, these breadsticks are a wonderful accompaniment to all sorts of meals.
- Buccellato. Buccellato is a sweet bread that has variations from both Tuscany and Sicily. While both are exquisite, this recipe comes from Lucca, located in Tuscany.
- Sicilian Brioche (Brioche col Tuppo) Sicilians certainly know how to bake a scrumptious brioche. Airy and buttery, this bread is very hard to resist.
- La Piadina. While I love a good crumb, I also have a soft spot for la piadina. This is an Italian flatbread that’s perfect for sandwiches and even great on its own.
- Pagnotta. Take a trip to central Italy ,and you’ll be in pagnotta country. This country-style bread has a crunchy crust and chewy center reminiscent of the best artisan bread.
- Pane Casserecio. Tasty Italian bread takes time and patience. If you have a little bit of both to spare, try this recipe. Pane casserecio is a crusty country bread that uses biga for baking.
