Ingredients
- 8 cups flour
- 2½ tablespoons active dry yeast
- 6 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 4 teaspoons salt
- 2 cups water more or less, warm
- nigella seeds
Instructions
- Dissolve the yeast in warm water with sugar. Add the flour, salt, oil and the yeast, water and sugar in a bowl and knead the dough with a stand-mixer for 10 minutes.
- Let rise in a covered bowl for an hour, until the dough doubles in volume.
- Divide the dough into 4 (or 8) pieces. Flatten each piece with a rolling pin to obtain a rectangle with a thickness of about ¾ inch (2 cm).
- Roll each piece diagonally and make cuts on top of each bread. Place the breads on baking sheets lined with parchment paper or even better on French baguette pans.
- Let rise for another 1 hour. Brush with warm water and sprinkle nigella seeds.
- Preheat the oven to 450 F (220˚C), and place a small bowl of water in it to prevent bread from drying. Bake the breads for 5 minutes. Lower to 390 F (200˚C), and continue baking for another 20 minutes.
