Bread Squares with Peppers "quadretti ai peperoni"
How to make Bread Squares with Peppers Recipe "quadretti ai peperoni" - Preparation time: 30 minutes – Cooking time: 20 minutes – Rising time: 1 hour 10 minutes
10 Servings
Ingredients:
8 cups (1 kg) soft wheat flour
2 1/8 cups (500 ml) lukewarm water
2 2/3 tbsp. (25 g) fresh yeast, crumbled
3 1/2 oz. (100 g) bell peppers
1 1/3 tbsp. (25 g) salt
Method:
Wash the peppers and bake them in the oven at 390°F (200°C) for 15 to 20 minutes. Peel them and remove the seeds; cut the peppers into strips and let them cool.
Put the flour onto a clean work surface and make a well in the center. Dissolve the yeast in the water and pour the yeast mixture into the well. Gradually start incorporating the yeast mixture into the flour until a loose dough starts to form, then add the softened butter and some of the baked pepper strips, preferably of different colors. If the dough is too soft, add a little flour. Lastly, add the salt and continue to knead until the dough is soft, smooth, and elastic.
Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rest for about 10 minutes, then cut it into squares, each weighing about 1 3/4 ounces (50 g). Place two pepper strips, crossed over each other, on top of each square.
Arrange the bread squares, floured and well-spaced, on a baking pan lined with parchment paper and let them rise, covered with plastic, for about 1 hour until they have doubled in size.
Bake in the oven at 350°F (180°C) for about 20 minutes.
Chef’s tips:
You can enhance the flavor and the fragrance of the bread squares with a sprinkling of cumin seeds.
