Ingredients
Dough: (For 2 breads)
  • 500 gr all purpose Flour+extra, 1 Egg-beaten, 150 ml Milk
  • 2½ tsp Instant yeast, 150 ml Water, 2 tsp Salt, 1 tsp Sugar
  • 50 ml Olive oil-extra, melted Butter-brushing (optional)
Basil pesto *:
  • 40 gr fresh Basil leaves, 120 ml Olive oil, ½ tsp Salt

Directions
  • In a bowl, put the flour, salt, sugar & yeast; mix until everything is evenly distributed. Pour in the egg, olive oil, milk & water. Stir & then scrape all sides of the bowl, including the bottom, to make sure you’ll bring all ingredients in. Knead the dough until it forms a smooth dough (~ 10 mins). Bring it into a ball & put it in a slightly greased bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap & let it proof in a warm place for ~ 1½ hours, to allow it to doubled in size.
  • In a food processor/blender, pulse basil, olive oil, garlic & pine nuts for few seconds (not too fine). Add in the cheese; process again. Season with salt & a pinch of pepper. Give a good stir.
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C, put the oven rack in the lower third of the oven. Flour your working surface, hands & rolling pin. Put the dough in the working surface & divide it in half. Take one of the dough & cover the other until the first dough had been shaped. Roll out the dough into ~ 30X40 cm or 20X50 cm rectangle.
  • Spread half of the pesto over the top, leaving a border of ~1 cm all the way around. Scatter half of the cheese evenly. Sprinkle with sesame seeds & herbs on top. Do the same process with the other dough.
  • Take one of the dough. Starting from one of the long edges, roll up the dough. Cut the roll in half lengthwise with a slightly oiled sharp knife. Braid the strands with the cut sides facing up. Pinch the ends & tuck them under to seal. Repeat the whole process with the other dough.
  • Place the dough on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Cover the dough loosely & let it sit for 20 minutes. Bake it for 40 mins; take it out from the oven & brush the surface with melted butter. Bake again for 5-6 minutes, just until golden brown. Remove the breads from the oven. Put breads in a wire rack & let it slightly cool down.

  • Taburi meja kerja & saput tangan dng terigu. Keluarkan adonan & letakkan di meja kerja. Pukul adonan utk mengeluarkan gasnya. Taburi permukaannya dng sedikit terigu. Gunakan tangan (& pengikis plastik) utk melipat adonan dari sisi2 tepinya ke arah tengah lalu bulatkan adonan. Jika ingin membuatnya menjadi bbrp roti utk perorangan, bagi adonan menjadi 3-4 buah lalu bentuk menjadi btk oval membulat & kemudian memanggangnya di pan panggang persegi/pan datar. Atau anda dpt membuatnya menjadi 1 roti bundar besar & memanggangnya dng Dutch oven.
  • Untuk memanggangnya di pan panggang persegi/pan datar: Alasi pan dng kertas perkamen anti lengket lalu letakkan di atasnya potongan2 adonan, beri jarak yg cukup di antaranya. Tutup dng serbet, longgar saja & biarkan sampai mengembang 2X nya (30-45 mnt). Panaskan oven 200° C, taruh rak oven di bagian tengah oven.

Ingredients
  • 350 gr Bread flour+extra,  tsp Salt, 2 Garlic cloves-minced
  • 300 ml warm Water, ½ tsp ground Black pepper, Olive oil-brushing
  • 1 tbsp Sugar, tbsp fresh chopped Rosemary+1 tbsp extra
  •  tsp (3½ gr) Instant yeast, 20 gr melted Butter+extra

Directions
  • Add the yeast & sugar to lukewarm water & mix thoroughly. Let it rest for few minutes, allow the mixture to become bubbly.
  • Put the flour, salt & pepper in a warm bowl; mix until everything is evenly distributed. Stir in the butter, rosemary & garlic to combine. Pour in yeast mixture; stir until the the dough well blended. Scrape all sides of the bowl, including the bottom, to make sure you’ll bring all ingredients in. Knead the dough ~ 5 minutes, just until it becomes smooth & not too sticky anymore. Bring it into a ball; cover with plastic wrap & let it proof for 1- hours, to allow it to double in size.
  • Flour the working surface & your hand. Scrape out the dough onto the working surface & punch it down to release the gas. Flour the dough surface a bit. Use your hand (& a plastic scraper) to fold over the edges to the centre of the dough to form a ball. If you want to make it into several individual bread, divide the dough in 3-4; shape them into rounded oval loaves & baking it in a baking pan/sheet. Or you could just make a big round bread & baking it in a Dutch oven.
  • To bake it in a baking pan/sheet: Line a baking pan/sheet with non stick baking paper. Put the dough onto the baking sheet; give enough space between each dough. Cover the sheet loosely with a towel & let loaves rise again until doubled (30-45 minutes). Preheat oven to 200° C, put the oven rack in the middle of the oven shelf. Put a shallow metal pan filled with water on the oven bottom rack. Gently brush the dough surface with olive oil, then sprinkle with rosemary over the loaves; press lightly into the surface. Place the baking sheet in the oven middle rack & bake for 20-25 minutes, until lightly browned.
  • To bake it with a cast iron Dutch oven: Put the dough ball in a greased round pan/bowl/skillet, make sure it’s smaller in diameter than your Dutch oven. Cover it loosely with a towel; let it proof for 30-45 min. Put a greased Dutch oven in the oven rack to the lower third of the oven; preheat the oven to 230° C. Remove Dutch oven from the oven, take the lid off & flip the pan/skillet over the Dutch oven to move the dough into it. Shake the Dutch oven to centre the dough. Gently brush the surface with olive oil, then sprinkle with rosemary over the dough; press lightly into the surface (be careful, it’ll be really hot). Put the lid on; bake for 30-35 minutes & then 10-15 minutes with the lid off to finish the crust.
  • Remove the bread from oven & put the bread in a wire rack. Brush the surface with butter while it is still hot. Let it cool down before you serve/cut the bread. You could just eat the bread just like that, with some bread spread & bacon or serve it with a cup of soup, i.e. (click on the link for the recipe): Creamy Potato SoupCreamy Corn SoupCreamy Mushroom SoupGreen Pea SoupCreamy Asparagus Soup.
