    RECIPE BOLOS LEVEDOS
    7.5 cups flour
    2 cups milk
    1/4 cup warm water with a pinch of sugar to rehydrate the yeast
    1 cup sugar
    4 eggs
    1/4 cup melted butter
    1/2 tsp salt
    2-1/4. tsp dry yeast (1 packet)
    1. Re-hydrate the yeast in a quarter cup of water with a pinch of sugar.
    2. Add the sugar, warm milk (115 F) and eggs to a bowl and whisk for about a minute.
    3. Add the flour, re-hydrated yeast, melted butter, the one cup of sugar and 1 teaspoon of salt to the bowl with rest of the ingredients.
    4. Knead for about 5 minutes by hand or 2.5 minutes if using a mixer.
    5. Cover and bulk ferment for about 1.5 - 3 hours. Until double in volume. (The ideal temperature to proof bread is about 85°F. You could put your bread nearest space heater. Or turn on your oven for 30 seconds to one minute. Then TURN OFF YOUR OVEN, to use your oven a s a proof box)
    6. After the dough has doubled in size knead for an additional 3 minutes.
    7. On a well floured surface, divide the dough in 10 to 12 pieces. About the size of a tennis ball. Shape into 3 inch disk about 1/2 - 3/4 inch thick.
    8. Proof for 1 to 1.5 hours (Ideally in an area around 85°F )
    9. Pre-heat your oven to 325 F. Heat up a few pans over low heat. Cook the bolos for 5 minutes on each side. Then finish in the oven at 325 F for 10-12 minutes or until the interior temperature is 190°F .

    Visited the Azores back in 2018 and ate a ton of these! Decided to make your recipe yesterday, worked really well and they've nearly all gone already!!

    Definitely want to try this one as I have tasted this bread in the Azores many times.
    I have never understood why people use cups for baking. Surely a defined weight of flour etc is way better than a cup.

      Adam Anderson Maybe that’s why they’re known as sweet buns.

      @@JustCookwithMichael you used an entire packet of yeast. The recipe I had called for just 1 tsp. Mine didn’t rise much but look like the size of ones I buy in the market so I wonder how much more different they would be if I used more yeast.

    can you also bake this? instead of just cooking it on pan?

    • @JustCookwithMichael
      @JustCookwithMichael  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You can just bake it, the flavor should be about the same but it won’t have the traditional flat bottom and top. I would recommend starting it in a pan at least for a minute or two on each side and then transferring it to an oven. 🍻
