Recipe's preparation

  1. 1. Place parmesan cheese into mixing bowl Closed lid"Closed lid"  and grate 10 sec/speed 10

    2. Place water, yeast, sugar, dried onion flakes, olive oil, salt and bakers flour into the mixing bowl Closed lid"Closed lid" and knead 2 min/Dough mode"Dough mode" .

    3. Transfer dough to a ThermoMat or clean bench. Add a little olive oil to your hands and work dough into a smooth ball. Wrap in ThermoMat or place in a bowl greased with olive oil and cover with plastic wrap or a clean tea towel. Leave dough to prove for approx 30 mins or until doubled in size.

    4. Preheat oven to 200°C or 190°C (fan forced). Grease a deep-sided loaf tin or line a baking tray with flour or baking paper.

    5. Knock down dough, shape into a log and place into loaf tin or leave in a round ball and place onto a lined baking tray for a cob loaf style. Tap top of loaf with a little water and sprinkle top with sesame seeds and grated cheese. Leave dough to prove for approx 20 mins or until doubled in size again and then place into a preheated oven. Bake for 20-30 mins or until golden brown. 

    6. Remove from oven when cooked and allow to cool in tin or on tray for 5 mins before transferring to a wire cooling rack. 

     

Tip

Tepid water means water that will not feel cool or warm if you place your finger into the water. It can be slightly warm but not hot. If you use cold water from the fridge or tap you will need to add this extra step after step 1. Add the water, yeast and sugar and heat for 2 mins/37°C/speed 1. Once this has finished you can then add the remaining ingredients and continue with step 2.

You don't need to wash your bowl after grating the parmesan as it will be mixed through the dough in step 2.

Proving time may vary depending on your room temperature, if it's a cool day place your dough wrapped in the ThermoMat ontop of a Thermoserver which has been half filled with boiling water. 

To test if your bread is cooked, tap the base and if it sounds hollow it is cooked. If it's not quite cooked return it to the oven for another 5 minutes of cooking and test again. 

If you find your bread is a little heavy or not rising as much as it should, you can add in 1 tsp of natural bread improver with the flour in step 2. 

VARIATION

If you want to add more fibre into this bread substitue some or all of the bakers flour for a grain mix bakers flour, or add in your own choice of grains or seeds such as wheat, spelt, soy kibble and linseeds.

This bread can be made into any shape loaf or even split into 8-12 pieces and shaped into individual rolls. Bake rolls for only 12-15 mins.

Thermomix Model

  • Appliance TM 5 image
    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

    This is a great recipe, the bread is so tasty. We’ve used it for savoury sandwiches and for bread and jam (fig & ginger jam made in the TM of course) and it works perfectly with both.

    I actually halved all the ingredients for this one as I only wanted to make enough for two people.

    I thought I'd completely stuffed it as the dough came out very sticky and quite runny to what I was expecting (I'm definitely an amateur baker). I just put it aside and started from stratch making some basic white rolls.

    While waiting for the new dough to rise, I figured I had nothing else to lose from at least putting the first batch in the oven - using a muffin tray.

    Low and behold they came out perfect!!! They smelt great and tasted amazing. Thankyou!!
