How To make Olive Bread Part 1
:
COOKING WITH MASTER CHEFS 7 c Bread flour :
a little more
-if needed 2 ts Raw wheat germ
2 ts Fragrant dried thyme,
-coarsely ground 1 1/3 c Grape starter
2 c Tap water, 70 degrees F
1 tb Salt
1 c Greek Kalamata olives,
-pitted and roughly -chopped 1 c Oil cured olives, pitted
-and roughly chopped 1 tb Active dry yeast
Special equipment suggested: A food processor fitted with a steel blade (if your machine is too small for the proportions here, make the dough in two batches and combine them for the final hand-kneading) A dough scraper A 2X2 foot wooden, plastic, or marble work board surface Two wicker baskets about 10" across and 4" deep, lined with a clean dry cloth and lightly
floured An instant meat thermometer A bread peel A pizza stone or ceramic bread tiles (you will find these in most good cookware departments, gourmet shops and catalogs) MIXING THE DOUGH AND FIRST MACHINE KNEADING: Measure the flour, wheat germ, thyme, and starter into the bowl of the processor. Add the optional dissolved yeast only if your starter was not fully alive ~-bubbly throughout--after its final feeding. (If you are using the yeast-batter alternative, you will not need the additional yeast.) Start the machine and slowly pour in the water, then the salt. Process until the dough masses and balls up and rotates under the cover for 10 to 15 revolutions. Uncover the processor bowl and inspect the dough; it should be fairly smooth, soft and a bit sticky when squeezed between thumb and finger. (If too wet and sticky, sprinkle in and process briefly a tablespoon or so of flour; if too stiff, process in droplets of water.) SECOND MACHINE KNEADING: Let the dough rest 5 to 10 minutes, allowing the flour particles to absorb the liquid. Proces again for 15 to 20 revolutions, then uncover the machine. ADDING THE OLIVES AND PREPARATION FOR HAND KNEADING: Add the olives to the machine, and process into the dough with short on-off spurts. You just want to incorporate the olives, not chop them. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured board and knead by hand for several turns to be sure the olives are well incorporated, and that the dough is smooth. Divide in half with the scraper. Tuck all sides of each piece under itself and roate the dough briefly with your palms to form a ball shape. Cover with a clean, dry cloth and let the dough rest on the board for 15 minutes. FORMING THE DOUGH: One at a time, with the pams of your hands roll each ball of dough around, pulling the bottom against the board, creating tension to stretch the covering "skin" smoothly over the entire surface of the dough. If more tension is needed, spritz the surface of the dough with a little water. Cupping your hands around the ball and using pressure against the board, continue rotating until the ball is uniformly smooth, with no blisters or breaks. Turn the ball over, pinch the center of the bottom together to seal, and place pinched side down in a floured basket. LETTING THE DOUGH RISE--2 hours: Leave the baskets uncovered at room temperature for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until the dough has started to rise. Enclose each basket in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.

Greek Homemade Olive Bread: Eliopsomo
The Greek word eliopsomo translates to olive (elia) bread (psomi). Homemade bread is the ultimate comfort food. The addition of olives makes this a festive bread that is perfect for entertaining.
Print this recipe here:
Makes 1 loaf:
The Wet Ingredients:
• 1 and 1/2 teaspoons dry active yeast
• 2 teaspoons sugar
• 1 and 1/2 cups tepid water
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
The Dry Ingredients:
• 2 cups (300 grams) all-purpose flour
• 2 cups (320 grams) bread flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 sprigs rosemary, finely chopped
1/4 cup olive oil plus more for filling
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 cups pitted Kalamata olives, roughly chopped
Optional filling ingredients:
• Sundried tomatoes, chopped
• Caramelized onions
• Crumbled feta cheese
• Fresh herbs
Sesame seeds (optional)
Combine the wet ingredients into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment and set aside for 8 minutes or until the yeast is activated. As soon as a foamy cloud appears on top of the liquid the yeast is active. If this does not happen, discard the mixture and start over with a fresh batch of yeast.
Combine all of the dry ingredients in a large bowl and whisk together. Add them to the yeast mixture along with 1.4 cup olive oil and the rosemary. Knead on low speed for 8 minutes.
Transfer the dough to a greased bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Set aside in the warmest part of your home for 1-2 hours or until doubled in volume.
Place the dough on a clean work surface and cut it into 4 pieces. Stretch each piece of dough as much as possible without tearing. Approximately 10 inches in diameter. Brush 1 tablespoon of olive oil on 3 of the dough circles and distribute the olives evenly on top of each piece. Stack the pieces of dough on top of each other and form into a ball by bringing all of the ends towards the center.
Preheat oven to 500 °F, 260 °C.
Place a cast-iron skillet on the bottom rack of the oven and a pizza stone on the center rack to preheat.
Place the dough on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and loosely cover with plastic wrap. Set aside for 20 minutes.
Brush the top of the dough with water and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Cut 4-5 slits on the top of the dough and place it on the center rack of the oven.
Reduce the oven’s temperature to 450 °F, 230 °C
Carefully pour 1 and ½ cups ice-cold water into the cast-iron skillet to create steam in the oven. This will create a bakery-style crust on the bread.
Bake for 30 minutes. Place the bread directly onto the pizza stone for 5 more minutes.
Allow the bread to rest for 20 minutes before slicing.
Enjoy!

INGREDIENTS:
450g Vincenzo's Plate Bread Dough (Click here for the recipe)
8 large black olives (pitted and cut into 4 pieces)
1 small cup of plain flour
Extra virgin olive oil
Balsamic Vinegar
UTENSILS:
1 x rolling pin
1 x knife (with a point)
Wooden board/Kitchen Bench
1 x pizza tray (better if it has holes at the bottom so it cooks through)
Baking paper
METHOD:
1. Make sure the dough has been out of the fridge for 15 minutes.
2. Throw some flour on the wooden board/bench and spread it using the palm of your hand and place the dough on top.
3. Spread the dough with the rolling pin making sure it is not too flat or too thin.
4. Place half of the olives on top, pressing them into the dough at least 4cm apart from one another.
5. Now, roll the dough with your hands and try to cover all of the olives with the dough.
6. Preheat the oven to 250 degrees.
7. Add the rest of the olives by pressing them into the dough and covering them once again.
8. Use the rolling pin to gently press the olives further into the dough. It's OK if you can still see a couple of the olives at the top.
9. Line the pizza tray with baking paper and place the ball of dough on top.
10. Now, with a sharp knife, make a slit on the right hand side of the ball of dough. It should open slightly but make sure you don't cut all the way down!
11. Place the tray in the oven for at least one hour.
12. Once it has browned on top and cooked through, leave the bread to rest for between 15-20 minutes.
HOW TO SERVE:
Once the bread has rested, pour a generous amount of extra virgin olive oil and at least two tablespoons of balsamic vinegar into a small bowl or glass.
Pieces of the bread can then be dipped into this mix or you can serve the bread with this drizzled over the top.
E ora si mangia, Vincenzo's Plate
