Time 2h30m

Yield 48

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 cups all-purpose flour
½ cup white sugar
½ cup shortening
1 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
¾ cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
2 cups lukewarm buttermilk

Steps:

  • Dissolve yeast in warm water. Allow to stand until mixture is frothy.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and soda. Add shortening and work until crumbly. Mix in yeast mixture and buttermilk. Store, well covered, in a greased bowl in the refrigerator. Don't worry if it is a little sticky; it will firm up as it chills. Dough can be stored up to 2 weeks.
  • When ready to make rolls, take out amount needed. Turn dough out on a lightly floured surface, and knead for 2 or 3 minutes. Roll out, and cut rolls. Place in greased muffin cups. Let rise for 30 minutes.
  • Bake in a preheated 400 degrees F (205 degrees C) oven for 15 minutes, or until golden brown.

MOCK SOURDOUGH FRENCH BREAD



Mock Sourdough French Bread image

I found the original version of this recipe in the Betty Crocker Bread Cookbook about 25-30 years ago and have pretty much given up on making my own sourdough, since this is a good as all but the very best sourdough breads around. Cooking time includes rising time.

Time 2h30m

Yield 8 small loaves, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 (8 ounce) cartons plain yogurt (Non-fat works great!)
2 packages active dry yeast
1 package expired dry yeast, for flavor (optional)
1/4 cup warm water (110-115 degrees F)
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 -5 cups unbleached flour
cold water
fresh coarse ground black pepper (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat yogurt to lukewarm (110 degrees F).
  • In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water, stir in yogurt, sugar, salt, oil and 2 cups flour, and beat until smooth.
  • Stir in enough additional flour to make dough easy to handle.
  • Knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes, adding more flour as necessary, to obtain a firm, non-sticky sough.
  • Place in oiled bowl, and turn to oil top of dough.
  • Cover, and let rise in warm place until doubled in volume.
  • Punch down dough, divide into 8 equal parts, knead each one, and flatten into a 4"x6" rectangle.
  • Roll up, beginning on one of the long sides, excluding any air bubbles.
  • Pinch edge of dough firmly into roll to seal, press each end firmly to seal, and fold ends under.
  • Place loaves, seam side down, on greased cookie sheets sprinkled with cornmeal.
  • Brush or spray tops with cold water, and cut three diagonal slices across top of each loaf with a sharp knife or razor blade.
  • Let rise until doubled, about 30-40 minutes.
  • Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Brush or spray loaves with cold water, and sprinkle pepper into slashes if desired.
  • Bake until loaves sound hollow when rapped on the bottom or when they reach an internal temperature of 190 degrees F on an instant reading thermometer, about 35 minutes, brushing or spraying with cold water every 10 minutes.
  • Cool on wire rack before wrapping.
  • Recipe can be doubled successfully, and bread freezes very well.
  • Thaw to room temperature and heat unwrapped in oven to restore the crisp crust.
