Ingredients

    Instructions

    Step 1: Prepare the Dough

    1. Mix the Flours:

      • In a large mixing bowl, combine 200g '00' flour, 100g semolina flour, and ½ teaspoon of salt.
    2. Add Water:

      • Gradually pour in 175ml of water.
    3. Form the Dough:

      • Mix the ingredients together until they form a soft dough.
    4. Knead the Dough:

      • Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface.
      • Knead for about 5 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic.
    5. Rest the Dough:

      • Wrap the kneaded dough in cling film and let it rest for 30 minutes.

    Step 2: Preheat the Oven

    1. Prepare Baking Equipment:

      • While the dough is resting, place a pizza stone or one or two large baking trays in the oven.
    2. Heat the Oven:

      • Preheat the oven to 240°C (220°C for fan ovens) or gas mark 9, or as high as it will go.

    Step 3: Shape the Dough

    1. Divide the Dough:

      • After resting, divide the dough into 8 equal portions.
    2. Shape into Balls:

      • Roll each portion into a ball.
    3. Roll Out the Dough:

      • On a floured surface, take one ball and roll it out very thinly into a rough circle about 20-22cm in diameter.
      • Repeat for all dough balls, rolling them out one at a time.

    Step 4: Prepare for Baking

    1. Cut Baking Parchment:

      • Cut out 8 squares of baking parchment slightly larger than the dough circles.
    2. Assemble the Breads:

      • Place each rolled-out dough circle on a piece of baking parchment.
      • Brush the tops lightly with olive oil.

    Step 5: Bake the Breads

    1. Bake in Batches:

      • Carefully transfer the baking parchment with the dough circles onto the hot pizza stone or baking tray.
      • Bake 1 or 2 breads at a time for 6-8 minutes, or until they puff up, are golden brown, and crisp.
    2. Cool the Breads:

      • Once baked, remove the breads and place them on a wire rack to cool while you bake the remaining dough circles.

    Step 6: Final Touches

    1. Warm Through:

      • After all the breads are baked and cooled, pop them back in the oven for 1 minute to warm through.
    2. Add Toppings:

      • Remove from the oven and top each bread with a slice of wild garlic butter and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
    3. Serve:

      • Enjoy your delicious wild garlic butter on music paper bread warm!
