Mocha French Bread (Made with Yeast)
- 200 grams French bread flour (this time I used "Lys D'Or")
- 6 grams Sugar
- 3 grams Salt
- 1/2 tsp Instant Dry Yeast (SAF Red Label)
- 150 grams Water
- 3 grams Instant coffee
- 7 grams Cocoa (unsweetened)
- 40 grams Mandarin orange peels
- Dissolve the coffee in lukewarm water.
- Mix the flour, sugar, and cocoa together, add to step 1, stir with a spatula until it all comes together, and let sit for 30 minutes.
- Add salt and the yeast to step 2, and knead for about 3 minutes (Add them in separately!)
- Add the orange peel to step 3, and knead for about 3 minutes.
- It is difficult to knead by hand, so I use a rice scoop.
- Cover step 4 with a plastic bag, and let rise for the first time for about 3 hours.
- Lightly release the gas, divide into 2 equal portions, and let sit for 20 minutes.
- Sprinkle some parchment paper with flour, place the shaped dough on top, and place into a baking couche.
- (Seal each end with a pair of clothespins).
- Place step 6 into a plastic bag, and let sit overnight to rise (place a cutting board under step 6).
- Bake a cookie sheet by itself at 250C for 20 minutes (to preheat the oven).
- Take the dough out of the fridge, sprinkle it with flour while it is still cold, and make a cross cut.
- Mist the dough, place the dough onto the cookie sheet, bake at 230C for 10 minutes, reduce the heat to 200C, and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
