Time 1h

Yield 8 Bowls, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 (1/4 ounce) packages active dry yeast
2 1/2 cups warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
7 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon cornmeal
1 egg white
1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
  • Add salt, oil and 4 cups flour to the yeast mixture; beat well. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well with an electric mixer at medium speed after each addition.
  • When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 6 minutes.
  • Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil.
  • Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes.
  • Punch dough down, and divide into 8 equal portions. Shape each portion into a 4 inch round loaf.
  • Place loaves on lightly greased baking sheets sprinkled with cornmeal. Cover and let rise in a warm place, free from drafts, until doubled in bulk, about 35 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • In a small bowl, beat together egg white and 1 tablespoon water; lightly brush the loaves with half of this egg wash.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Brush with remaining egg mixture, and bake 10 to 15 more minutes or until golden. Cool on wire racks.
  • To make bowls: Cut a 1/2 inch thick slice from top of each loaf; scoop out centers, leaving 3/4-inch-thick shells. Fill bread bowls with hot soup and serve immediately.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my bread bowls didn't turn out as good as I had hoped. They were a little too dense.
