This is our fuction bread, its delicious, no knead, can be made the night before and makes enough for about 45-50 portions.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 Kg Bread Flour
  • 30g Salt
  • 30g Sugar
  • 25g Fresh Yeast
  • 100g Olive Oil
  • 1100g Water

Method

This bread is an 80 % hydration, it is very very wet more like a batter. You will not be able to knead it and because of the water content yo don't need to knead it.
Mix all the dry ingredients and put the olive oil and yeast in with the water.
Add the wet to dry and mix until it all comes together.
You can wait for it to double in size and then use it or put it in the fridge overnight.
When double in size pour the mix into a lined oiled gastro tray and add some olive oil on the top.
Wait for the dough to double in size then bake at 160/180 for 45mins or until the middle is cooked and outside is golden brown.

Small Contribution. Big Impact.

The Staff Canteen has always been more than a website—it’s a community, built by and for hospitality. We share the wins, the challenges, the graft, and the inspiration that keeps kitchens alive.

We believe in staying open to everyone, but creating this content takes real resources. If you’ve ever found value here—whether it’s a recipe, an interview, or a laugh when you needed it most—consider giving just £3 to keep it going.

 

A little from you keeps this space free for all. Let’s keep lifting the industry, together.
