On Any Given Sunday…

August 19, 2009


The Key to Happiness is…

Fresh baked bread.

And if you choose to experience this happiness…

Pain d’Olives

5 cups flour

1 tsp Herbs de Provence

2 tsp salt

4 tbsp olive oil

1 packet yeast

2 cups warm water

20 sliced black olives (or if you’re like me slice the whole can; save a few for the top if you like)


Mix all the ingredients except the olives

Make a soft dough and knead for a few minutes

Knead in the sliced olives

Form oval loaf, cover, and leave in a warm place until doubled

Sprinkle top with sea salt and whole olives

Bake 25 +/- minutes at 425 – it’s done when the top is golden brown and it sounds hollow when tapped

Enjoy!

P.S.: It’s delicious on its own or covered with ricotta and tomatoes.


P.P.S.: I know it’s Wednesday and not Sunday. I was too busy eating bread on Sunday to post this.
