Wild garlic bread

Wild garlic bread is folded in three twice, then the slices are stacked before proving. The dough with olive oil and wild garlic bakes into a fasting-friendly loaf with visible layers, golden on the surface and green between them. I cut it into thick slices and eat it with a clear soup. Prep: 20 minutes. Cook: 30 minutes. Rest: 60 minutes. Total time: 110 minutes. Servings: 8. Approximately 340 kcal and 6 g protein per serving.
Ingredients
- 500 g flour
- 25 g fresh yeast
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 50 ml olive oil
- 150 ml warm water
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 50 ml olive oil
- 50 g wild garlic
Preparation
1. Dissolve the yeast in a little warm water taken from the 150 ml, then mix it with the sugar and 1 tablespoon of flour. Leave it while you prepare the rest of the dough. 2. Sift the flour into a bowl and make a well in the middle. Add the dissolved yeast and 50 ml olive oil, then gradually pour in the remaining water mixed with the salt. Knead until you have a smooth, non-sticky dough. 3. Roll the dough out on a floured surface into a rectangle. Brush it with 20 ml oil, sprinkle over 25 g chopped wild garlic and fold it in three. Wrap it in cling film and chill for 30 minutes. 4. Roll out the dough again. Brush it with 15 ml oil, add the remaining 25 g wild garlic and fold it in three, then roll it out again. 5. Cut the dough into slices the length and width of the baking tray, then stack the slices on top of one another. Brush them with the remaining 15 ml oil, cover and leave to prove for 30 minutes, until slightly puffed. 6. Heat the oven to 200°C. Bake the bread for 30 minutes, until nicely browned.
Notes
Bunches of wild garlic vary a lot in size, so choose green, firm leaves with no yellowing. After washing them, dry them well; any water left on the leaves makes the dough harder to roll out. If the stems are thick, chop them finer than the leaves so they don't pull the sheet when you roll it. The dough should be supple but not stick to the surface; if it shrinks back as you roll it out, leave it covered for another 10 minutes. I do the fold after chilling slowly, without pulling on the dough, so the sheet stays intact. A slice goes well with vegetable soup. Wheat flour contains gluten, so this bread isn't suitable for anyone avoiding it. Keep it wrapped, and you can freeze any slices you won't eat within a few days separately. Heat them straight from the freezer without defrosting.
Frequently asked questions
What can I use instead of wild garlic?
For 50 g wild garlic, use 2 finely chopped garlic cloves and 15 g parsley, dividing them between the layers.
Can I use dried yeast?
Yes. Replace the 25 g cube with 7 g dried yeast and dissolve it in the warm water before mixing it with the flour.
Can I use frozen wild garlic?
Yes, use 50 g and leave it in a sieve to thaw for 20 minutes, then drain the liquid well.
How can I tell when the bread is baked?
As well as a browned surface, the base should sound hollow when you tap it lightly with your finger.
