Olive and Rosemary Bread with a Three Dip Trio
An appetizer is about more than simple flavor; it is about presentation. As the entryway to the larger meal, the appetizer sets the tone for every bite to follow. Be sure to introduce your Italian meal right with the elegantly arranged vegan olive and rosemary bread at Coletta.
Charmingly served in a flower pot, this bread comes with a trio of delicious dips, allowing the table even greater control over their meal.
The first dip is a true Italian classic: extra virgin olive oil seasoned with aged balsamic and fresh cracked pepper. Take advantage of each pinch of bread to absorb every ounce of rich, flavorful goodness.
The second dip in the trio will be perfect for those craving a bit of spicy heat: a sundried tomato and garlic confit. The sharp acidity of the sun dried tomatoes makes the ideal pairing for the strong flavor profile of the garlic confit. Order this dish for yourself to see exactly how the bold flavors play off one another to create something altogether new!
The final vegan dip is not to be missed: a sunchoke and herb “feta” dip. Unlike traditional feta dips, this wholesome alternative is entirely cruelty-free. Enjoy every last bite without fear of compromising the direction of your moral compass.
Homemade Vegan Rosemary Bread Recipe
Ready to introduce this flavor to your next dinner party? Follow the easy instructions below to make your very own homemade vegan rosemary bread!
Tip: for a louder, bolder flavor, use fresh rosemary. For those looking for a milder kick, use a mortar and pestle to grind down dried rosemary for this recipe.
Ingredients
- 1 packet of dry active yeast
2 cups of warm water
5 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour
1 cup of olive oil
- 2 teaspoons of kosher salt (as well as extra for sprinkling)
1 1/2 tablespoons of white sugar
2 tablespoons rosemary
- 2 cups of warm water
- 5 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1 cup of olive oil
- 2 teaspoons of kosher salt (as well as extra for sprinkling)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons of white sugar
- 2 tablespoons rosemary
Instructions
- Begin by activating your yeast. Mix your packet of yeast with warm water and sugar until all the dry ingredients fully dissolve. Allow this mixture to sit for about twenty minutes.
- Mix flour, salt, and rosemary in a large bowl. Slowly introduce your olive oil and mix thoroughly. This step may prove difficult, but try to mix the olive oil as thoroughly with the rest of your ingredients as you can.
- Slowly combine your flour mixture with your activated yeast and water. As you combine, stir continuously. The resulting dough should be sticky and somewhat stretchy.
- Cover this bowl with a dry towel or strip of cellophane, then allow it to sit in a warm, dark corner for around two hours.
- Once this dough has risen, punch it down. On a floured surface, knead the dough for ten minutes or so, until you have formed a single ball. Place this ball back into the bowl, recover, and then refrigerate it overnight.
- After the dough has been refrigerated for at least twelve hours, remove it from the cold and allow it to rise for another two hours or so. From here, spread the dough into a large sheet pan. Don’t strive for perfection here; have fun with it! Use your fingers to pole holes into the surface of the dough down to the bottom.
- Drizzle olive oil, salt, and any other desired herbs across the surface of the bed, then place into a preheated oven. Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for twenty-five minutes, or until the bread has reached a golden brown color.
- Allow the bread to cool for at least ten minutes before enjoying it. Cut into slices, rip apart with your hands, or enjoy it as a base for your favorite vegan “cheese” mixture!
