Ingredients

Servings

Bread Bowl

  • 2 cups water between 105-110°F, warm
  • 2 envelopes instant yeast
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt

Egg Wash

  • 1 large egg room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon water

Instructions

  1. To the bowl of a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment, add the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Mix together and let rest for 5-8 minutes, or until the yeast has bloomed.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. With the mixer on low, add one cup of the flour mixture at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Continue adding flour until the dough comes together. If your dough is too sticky, add more flour; if the dough is too dry, add a small amount of water.
  3. Once the dough forms a ball and does not stick to the walls of the mixing bowl, continue to knead the dough with the dough hook for 5-6 minutes.
  4. Remove the dough from the mixing bowl and form it into a ball. Place the dough ball into a large bowl sprayed with cooking oil, rotate the dough so it is coated in the oil, and cover with plastic wrap. Place the dough in a warm place to rise for 1 hour, or until doubled. (Rise time can vary depending on humidity.)
  5. Once the dough has risen, line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
  6. Fold the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Divide into 6 equal-sized sections (about 190 grams per loaf).
  7. Roll each section of dough into a ball. Fold seams under and roll again to create a smooth surface. Place each rolled dough ball onto the baking sheets spaced 3-4 inches apart.
  8. Cover loosely with greased plastic wrap or a towel, and rise again for 30-45 minutes, or until doubled.
  9. When ready, preheat the oven to 400°F.
  10. In a small bowl, add egg and water. Whisk together until fully combined. Brush egg wash over the dough and bake for 16-18 minutes, or until golden brown. Let the loaves cool slightly before serving. Bread bowls can be served warm or at room temperature.
  11. To create a bread bowl, cut a circle into the top of the bowl and use your hands to scoop out the inside bread.
  12. Fill bowls with your favorite soups, salads, chili, and stews.
