The bread pot: irresistible and in tune with autumn
The bread pot is the attraction of many restaurants across Europe, especially in the Czech Republic. But really, anyone can make soup in a bread pan. The decisive factor here is that the soup is thick, with a higher consistency.
Thick soups are perfect for a bread crock
Your bread pans should be large enough and round to serve as bowls. This only looks a bit confusing at first glance. The bread pots are actually quite easy to bake in round casserole dishes. What are the steps to follow?
#Step 1: Knead the dough
The flour is first sifted, the yeast, salt and water are added. A little bit of fat is added. Knead the dough well and let it stand briefly in a warm place.
#Step 2: Bake the bread pans
You should then grease the casserole dishes and put the bread pans in them. Bake after a break and then let cool. You should cut out the lid for more attractiveness and hollow out the inside.
You can butter the bread crock and lightly bake in the oven. The bowls are then ready for the soup. You can put any type of cream soup in them, provided it’s a thick soup.
