Flower Pogaca (with photo)
« on: November 24, 2010, 08:05:41 am »

This has been one of the best bread recipes I've ever made! It might look difficult to make but once you see the pictures you will understand how easy it is to make instead. It takes a little time since you need to roll out 10 sheets with a rolling pin. It surely is worth the effort. You get to show off at the end ;)


Flower Pogaca

Ingredients:
250g milk
10g sugar
25g fresh yeast
700g flour
2 eggs
90g sunflower oil
20g salt

100g melted margarine

1 egg yolk
1 tbsp milk
Sesame, flax seeds

Preparation:

    * Warm milk for 1 minute at 37ºC on Speed 1
    * Add sugar and yeast. Mix for 4 seconds on Speed 4
    * Sift in flour. Add oil, salt and eggs. Knead for 5 minutes
    * Place it in a deep bowl. Cover with plastic film. Let it rise for 1-1.5h

    * Knead for 30 seconds by your hands
    * Divide it into 3 pieces as 600 - 450 and 150g
    * Dived 600g piece into 5 pieces (120g each)
    * Roll out each 5 pieces into disk shape with rolling pin in at a size which is 1-2cm smaller than the diameter of your tart pin (I used 28cm tart pan)
    * Brush with melted margarine between the pieces and place them one over another (only in between, not on the top of 5th one)
    * Grease and flour your tart pan. Move pogaca gently and place tart pan. Cut into 8 pieces leaving 1cm from the ends as in the picture
    * Twist them outwards as in the picture

    * Divide 450g piece into 5 pieces around 90g each
    * Roll out with rolling pin at a size of the diameter of the hole in the center.
    * Grease them with melted margarine and place them one over another as you did before
    * Cut them into 8 pieces and twist outwards as in the picture


    * Roll 150g dough into a ball shape and place it in the center

    * Beat egg yolk and 1tbsp milk. Brush on the top
    * Sprinkle with flax seeds in the center, sesame on the petals. Cover with a damp cloth until the oven is heated.
    * Preheat oven at 200ºC
    * Bake it in preheated oven at 200ºC for 10 minutes
    * After 10 minutes passed reduce the temperature at 180ºC, cover pogaca with baking paper and bake for 20 minutes
    * After 20 minutes passed remove baking paper and continue to bake for 5-10 minutes
    * Let it cool down a bit before you serve

Enjoy!

Thanks girls ;)

it is easier than it looks JD
the tricky part is when you roll out the sheets they tend to shrink back so this makes you lose a bit time :-))

This looks amazing. I'm wondering what bread I'll make to have with Christmas lunch, this could be it. We don't normally have bread as there are so many meats and salads, but this year I want to make a bread as I know so many different ones.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Thanks CC, I am trying my best ;)  :D

cookie I believe this could be a nice bread for Christmas. It looks quite impressive with all those layers
My husband said it looks like opera house in Sydney :)

I also have another Christmas bread idea. I just have to try it first
If it comes nice I post it before Christmas so you would have the chance to try it
I don't know when I could try it though
I cooked the recent recipes at my mother-in-law's as my kitchen still is out of order :)

my goodness, your best is beyond brilliant! I would really like to try this, and fortunately bread is so wonderfully forgiving if I botch it up.
