Como fazer Basic Bread
- In a large bowl, combine 1 cup warm water (105-115°F) and 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- Add 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 2 tablespoons sugar to the yeast mixture. Stir to combine.
- Gradually add 3 1/2 to 4 cups all-purpose flour, one cup at a time, mixing with a wooden spoon or your hands until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Add more flour if the dough is too sticky.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough to release the air. Shape it into a loaf and place it in a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- Cover the loaf pan with plastic wrap and let rise for another 30-45 minutes, or until almost doubled in size.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
