From the shadows of the Italian kitchen into the spotlight of our heart. Garlic knots aren’t just a piece of leftover dough anymore. Tasty, garlicky, Yummy!
As I currently have some time, I was surfing on the internet the other day. Trying to find fresh, stirring tips, inspirational meals that I have never used before, to amaze my family with. Hunting for a long time but could not come across any interesting stuff. Right before I wanted to give up on it, I discovered this delightful and easy dessert simply by chance. It looked so fabulous on its pic, that called for prompt action.
It absolutely was easy to imagine the way it is made, its taste and just how much boyfriend will like it. Mind you, it is very easy to impress the guy in terms of desserts. Yes, I am a lucky one. Or maybe he is.Anyway, I went to the site: Suncakemom and then followed the step by step instuctions that were accompanied by superb photos of the procedure. It just makes life faster and easier. I can suppose it’s a slight hassle to take photographs in the middle of cooking in the kitchen as you ordinarily have gross hands thus i seriously appreciate the effort and time she put in to build this blogpost .
With that said I’m encouraged presenting my personal recipe similarly. Many thanks the thought.
I was fine tuning the initial mixture create it for the taste of my family. I have to tell you it absolutely was an awesome success. They loved the flavor, the structure and enjoyed getting a delicacy like this in the middle of a lively workweek. They ultimately asked for even more, a lot more. So the next occasion I am not going to commit the same mistake. I’m gonna multiply the quantity .
This Garlick Knots is from SunCakeMom.
Dough:
Dissolve fresh yeast in a half cup of lukewarm (not hot!) milk. Set it aside whilst preparing the other ingredients.
Get a big bowl and put flour, sliced room temperature butter, egg and the lukewarm water in it.
Pour the dissolved yeast into the big bowl on top of the other ingredients.
Knead the mixture well until it’s even and there’s no flour left on the edge of the bowl.
Cover the bowl and leave it in a warm place for about an hour to rise.
Filling:
Crush or dice up the garlic.
Mix the garlic with the room temperature butter and the rest of the filling ingredients in a small bowl.
Cover:
Prepare an egg wash by beating up an egg with a crushed garlic, basil, oregano and salt.
Assembly:
After an hour waiting take dough out of the bowl onto a well-floured work surface.
Roll it into a square. Flouring underneath the dough is important as this coating will prevent it to stick down.
Spread the butter with the herbs onto half of the dough.
Fold it in half so the butter creates a layer between the dough.
Then fold it again horizontally.
Leave it in a warm place under a kitchen towel for another 20 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350°F / 180°C.
After about 20 minutes when the dough have risen somewhat depending on the temperature.
Put it on a well-floured work surface to roll it in an approximately 10″ x 10″ / 30cm x 30cm square.
Cut about 1″ / 2cm wide stripes. Before cutting up the whole dough experiment with sizes. Find the length and with that is comfortable to make knots with.
Make knots out of the stripe and place roll into the the baking tray.
Give an egg wash to each roll before putting tray into the preheated oven.
If making knots gets boring just twist the stripes and make garlic twists.
Bake it for 20-25 minutes or until top is golden brown.
Eat them warm or cold with some melted cheese for more pleasure.
