- Preparation: 100 min
- Cooking: 18 min
- Makes: 1 serving (90.8 g)
- Difficulty: Medium
- Diets: Vegetarian
- Contains: dairy, gluten
Ingredients
- 55 g Flour, bread (strong)
- 30 g Water
- 3 g Butter, unsalted
- 1 g Yeast, fresh
- 0.5 g Malt extract
- 0.3 g Salt (including the topping)
- 1 g Baking soda (for the bath, the part taken up)
Method
- Dissolve the yeast and malt extract in the lukewarm water, add the flour, the salt (keep a pinch for the tops) and the soft butter, and knead for 10 minutes into a smooth, firm dough.
- Cover and leave to rise for 45 minutes.
- Divide into pieces of about 90 g and shape them into tight balls or short rolls with pointed ends. Leave them on a floured board for 20 minutes, then put them in the fridge, uncovered, for 30 minutes so they form a skin.
- Heat the oven to 220 °C. Bring a wide pot of water to a gentle boil and stir in baking soda, about 30 g per litre; it foams up, so add it slowly.
- Lower the rolls into the bath a few at a time for 30 seconds, turning them once, then lift them out with a slotted spoon onto a tray lined with baking paper.
- Cut a cross or a line into the top of each, sprinkle with the reserved salt and bake for 15-18 minutes until deep, shiny brown.
- Cool on a rack and eat the same day.
