-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 tablespoons active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water
2 tablespoons sugar
3 cups flour
2 tablespoons Vital Wheat Gluten -- (see notes)
1 1/4 cups warm water
3 tablespoons butter -- (cold)
1 tablespoon salt
If you REALLY want to make it like Subway, you can use special "sub"
bread mold pans. They will help the bread rise in the right direction
and you will get that nice "Subway-ish" shape. If you don't have
special pans, you can just shape them as best you can with your hands
:) The more cylinder-shaped you can get them, the better (you want
them to rise upward, not outward). ENJOY! :
In a stand mixer mixing bowl, combine yeast, 1/2 c. warm water, and
sugar. Stir until well combined and let stand for about 10 minutes
until nice and foamy.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine flour and vital wheat gluten. Add
1 c. warm water to the yeast mixture (in the stand mixer bowl) and
add flour/wheat gluten mixture until combined.
Attach the bowl to the stand mixer and with the bread hook
attachment, mix dough for about 3-4 minutes, adding a little flour if
necessary-- keeping it a little sticky.
You want the dough to be sticky enough that it sticks to the bottom
of the bowl a little bit, but not the sides.
After 3-4 minutes, cut up 3 Tbsp. of cold butter into little cubes
and add to the mixing bowl and add 1 Tbsp. salt. Mix an additional
5-6 minutes until butter is mixed in to the dough, pull the bread
down off the hook if needed throughout the mixing process. Again, you
want the dough to be slightly sticky and stretchy.
Place dough in a large greased bowl and roll around a little to get
it greased all around. Cover and allow to rise in a warm place for
about an hour.
Punch dough down and divide into 3 equal pieces (flour your hands if
the dough is too sticky for easier handling). Roll out each piece
into a 12" long loaf (like a fat snake). The dough should be the same
thickness all the way across. Place on a non-stick baking sheet (I
used a silicon baking mat) or a bread form pan. Cover and allow to
rise 40-60 minutes, until dough doubles in size.
Preheat oven to 350F.
Bake in oven for 12-25 minutes (check at 12 minutes) until bread is
golden brown.
Remove from oven and lightly run a little cold butter over the top
(this will soften it up nicely).
Allow loaves to cool completely, then serve with all your favorite
sub toppings!
