-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 packages active dry yeast
2 1/2 cups warm water -- (110F/45C)
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
7 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon cornmeal
1 egg white
1 tablespoon water
1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until
creamy, about 10 min.
2. Add salt, oil and 4 cups flour to the yeast mixture; beat well.
Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well with an
electric mixer at medium speed after each addition.
3. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly
floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 6 min.
Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to
coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place
until doubled in volume, about 40 min.
4. Punch dough down, and divide into 8 equal portions. Shape each
portion into a 4" round loaf. Place loaves on lightly greased baking
sheets sprinkled with cornmeal. Cover and let rise in a warm place,
free from drafts, until doubled in bulk, about 35 min.
5. Preheat oven to 400F (200C). In a small bowl, beat together egg
white and 1T water; lightly brush the loaves with half of this egg wash.
6. Bake in preheated oven for 15 min. Brush with remaining egg
mixture, and bake 10 to 15 more min or until golden. Cool on wire racks.
7. To make bowls: Cut a 1/2" thick slice from top of each loaf;
scoop out centers, leaving 3/4" thick shells. Fill bread bowls with
hot soup and serve immediately.
Description:
"These cute little bread bowls are a great way to serve soup in
the wintertime. I usually serve a hearty potato soup when I have the
time to bake them. They freeze for up to 1 month, if desired"
