Ingredients for Savory Mushroom & Black Garlic Swirl Bread

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
  2. 2 In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, and salt. Create a well in the center and pour in the warm water and yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until the yeast is activated and foamy.
  3. 3 Stir in the olive oil and mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until it's smooth and elastic. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rise for 20 minutes.
  4. 4 While the dough is rising, sauté the chopped mushrooms in a non-stick pan over medium heat until they release their moisture and become golden brown. Add the mashed black garlic, thyme, and black pepper, then cook for another 2 minutes. Let this mixture cool slightly.
  5. 5 Roll out the dough into a rectangle on a floured surface. Spread the mushroom and black garlic mixture evenly over the dough. Roll the dough up tightly into a log and place it in the prepared loaf pan.
  6. 6 Cover the loaf with a cloth and let it rise for another 15 minutes. Once risen, bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped.
  7. 7 Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.

Serving Suggestions

  • This Savory Mushroom & Black Garlic Swirl Bread pairs beautifully with a warm bowl of vegetable soup or a fresh salad for a complete meal. For a more indulgent experience, serve it with a spread of homemade herb-infused butter or a drizzle of high-quality olive oil. For a refreshing beverage, consider pairing this bread with a light herbal tea, such as chamomile or mint, which will complement the earthy flavors of the mushrooms and garlic. Alternatively, a chilled glass of sparkling water with a hint of lemon can keep the palate refreshed.

Storage Tips

Store any leftover bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. To maintain its moisture and texture, consider wrapping the bread in a clean kitchen towel before placing it inside the container. For longer storage, slice the bread and place the slices in a freezer-safe bag, removing as much air as possible. Freeze for up to one month and thaw at room temperature or reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10 minutes to restore its freshness.
