Ingredients:

  • gruyeye stuffed crusty loaves
  • starter
  • 1 1/4 cups (5 1/4 oz) king arthur unbleached bread flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp instant yeast
  • 1/2 cup (4 oz) cool water
  • all of the starter
  • 1 cup + 2 tbsp (9 oz) to 1 1/4 cups (10 oz) lukewarm water
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 1/2 cups (14 3/4 oz) king arthur unbleached bread flour
  • 1/2 tsp instant yeast
  • use the greater amount of water in winter, when conditions are dry; and the lesser amount in summer, when the weather is humid.
  • filling
  • 2 1/2 cups (10 oz) grated gruyere cheese

Directions:

  1. To make the starter: Mix the 1 1/4 cups flour, salt, yeast, and 1/2 cup water in a medium-sized bowl. Mix till well combined. Cover and let rest overnight at room temperature.
  2. To make the dough: Combine the risen starter with the water, salt, flour, and yeast. Knead—by hand, mixer, or bread machine set on the dough cycle—to make a smooth dough. Place it in a lightly greased bowl, cover, and let it rise for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, till it’s nearly doubled in bulk.
  3. Gently deflate the dough, and pat and stretch it into a 3/4”-thick rectangle, about 9” x 12”. Spritz with water, and sprinkle with the grated cheese. Starting with a long side, roll it into a log, pinching the seam to seal. Place the log, seam-side down, on a lightly floured or lightly oiled surface. Cover it and let it rise for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, till it’s puffy though not doubled in bulk. Towards the end of the rising time, preheat the oven to 425°F.
  4. Gently cut the log into four crosswise slices, for mini-breads; or simply cut the dough in half, for two normal-sized loaves. Place them on one (for two loaves) or two (for four mini-loaves) lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheets, cut side up. Spread them open a bit, if necessary, to more fully expose the cheese. Spritz with warm water, and immediately place them in the preheated oven. Bake for 20 minutes (for the mini-loaves), or 35 minutes (for the full-sized loaves), or until the cheese is melted and the loaves are a very deep golden brown. Remove them from the oven, and cool on a rack. Yield: four mini-loaves or two standard-size loaves.
