Steps:

  • Sift flour into a mixing bowl and place into a low oven to warm.
  • Dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup warm water, then stir in remaining water, salt, and sugar.
  • Remove flour from oven; take 2 cups of flour from the bowl and set aside.
  • Make a well in the remaining flour and pour in the liquid; stir in a little of the flour until the liquid gets thick, then cover the bowl and leave in a warm place until the mixture is frothy, about 10 minutes.
  • Stir the rest of the flour into the liquid, and add the butter/oil gradually, beating with a wooden spoon or mixing with your hands until smooth (about 10 minutes), or alternatively, use a dough hook/mixer for 5 minutes.
  • Sprinkle a little flour onto a board, and turn the dough out; gradually mix in some of the flour you had set aside earlier.
  • Only knead in enough to keep the dough from sticking; dough is ready when it is satiny, and the surface is slightly wrinkled; shape into a ball.
  • Oil the dough, and place in bowl, making sure the top side is oiled completely; cover bowl with plastic and allow to rise in a warm place for 1-1 1/2 hours or until doubled in size.
  • Punch down and make into 2 pieces; turn onto floured surface, and form each into a torpedo-shape.
  • Grease baking sheet and sprinkle with semolina; place the dough well apart on the sheet and cut 4 diagonal slashes across the dough; cover with a cloth and allow to proof in a warm place until doubled again, about an hour.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Place a dish of boiling water on the bottom of the oven; spray bread lightly with a mister and bake in preheated oven for approx 35-40 minutes; after first 15 minutes, mist again with water, then again 10 minutes later.
  • Cool on a rack when done.

6 cups all-purpose flour
1 envelope active dry yeast
2 cups water
2 teaspoons salt
3 teaspoons sugar
1 tablespoon melted warm butter or 1 tablespoon oil
1 tablespoon fine semolina (durum flour; use masa harina or cornmeal in a pinch)

GREEK OLIVE BREAD

The dough for this delicious bread is great to work with, making it easy to knead in the olives and feta cheese. The subtle flavor would complement any entree.-Tiffany Hartpence, Lander, Wyoming

12 TRADITIONAL GREEK BREADS - INSANELY GOOD RECIPES

From insanelygoodrecipes.com
5/5 (2)
Published 2021-12-06
Category Recipe Roundup
  • Easy Greek Olive Bread. This bread is the ultimate easy option for beginning bakers. You won’t have to do any kneading, and it requires only one rise instead of the usual two.
  • Greek Feta Bread (Tiropsomo) This bread may look a little flat and thin at first glance. However, its delightful softness and tangy feta taste make up for its lack of thickness.
  • Lagana Flatbread. In Greece, people serve Lagana flatbread only once a year at the beginning of lent, but it tastes so incredible that you’ll want to make it all the time.
  • Greek Easter Bread. Greek Easter bread, also called Tsoureki bread, is another popular holiday bread option in Greece. It’s a lot like brioche bread in taste and texture, but the whole boiled eggs are different.
  • Greek Village Bread. Village bread is one of the many rustic bread varieties you’ll encounter when checking out Greek bread recipes. It’s a dense, yeasty bread that tastes a lot like sourdough.
  • Ladenia. Ladenia is a spectacular Greek bread that looks more like pizza or some kind of delicious tart than it does bread. Even so, it is bread and amazing bread at that.
  • Greek Pita Bread. This soft, fresh pita bread is a genuine delight for the senses. It tastes great, smells incredible, and has a wonderful texture that lends itself nicely to every use.
  • Greek Bread With Oregano and Olive Oil. This dark brown Greek bread is peppered with patches of black, leading some people to believe it’s burnt. In reality, that’s precisely how it should look.
  • Psomi Spitiko. Psomi spitiko literally means “homemade bread” in English, so while the name may sound elaborate and glamorous, it isn’t. Neither is this bread.
  • Feta Bread Rolls (Tiropsoma) These no-knead rolls are crusty, feta-packed, and overflowing with flavor. They’ll have an almost unbelievable preparation time of just 5 minutes, and you’ll bake them for about 30.
