Rice Bread
- 1 1/4 cups cooked rice leftover, cold
- 3 3/4 cups bread flour
- 6 2/3 tablespoons whole wheat flour
- 1 7/8 tablespoons herbs choice
- 1 cup water
- 7/8 tablespoon dry active yeast
- 13/16 tablespoon salt
- Mix the cold rice with the bread flour, whole-wheat flour, herbs, and yeast.
- Add the water, mix, and let sit 10 minutes.
- Add the salt and start to knead until the gluten is well formed. You should be able to pinch off a section and stretch it between 2 hands without it breaking.
- Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise.
- Once doubled in volume, punch down the center. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and cut into 3 sections. Form each section into a baguette. Cover each with a damp cloth and let rise again.
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees Celsius and set a floured pizza stone inside to preheat with the oven.
- When the baguettes have risen again, place a baking tray filled with volcanic rocks and boiling water into the bottom of the oven.
- Carefully transfer the baguettes onto the pizza stone and bake for 10 to 15 minutes. During this time, they should rise in the oven.
- Then reduce the heat to 210 degrees Celsius and bake another 15 minutes.
- Turn off the oven, open the oven door a crack, and let the bread sit inside for another 10 minutes.
- Remove the bread to a baking rack to cool.
