Shaun shows us how to bake Hops Bread (with some technical tips and tricks) to achieve that classic hard shell and soft fluffy interior:
Yield - 12
Ingredients
All Purpose Flour - 4 cups (sifted)
Dried Instant Yeast - 1 ½ tbsp
Brown Sugar - 1 ½ tbsp
Salt - 1 ¼ tsp
Water - 12 oz (lukewarm)
Method
1. Place flour in a bowl.
2. Add yeast, sugar & salt.
3. Mix all dry ingredients.
4. Make a well in the middle and add water.
5. Knead for 10 minutes until dough becomes smooth.
6. Place in a greased bowl, cover and let rest for 1 hour.
7. Uncover, punch air out of dough and form 12 balls.
8. Place on a greased baking sheet, cover and let rest for 2 to 3 hours.
9. Preheat oven to 400F.
10. Once preheated, place a pan no smaller than 9” by 6” halfway filled with hot water in the bottom of your oven (This will help to create a hard outer shell and soft fluffy inside Hops bread is known for).
11. Bake Hops for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
12. Using a spray bottle, spray hops every 5 minutes.
13. Remove from heat and allow to cool before enjoying.
