End of Thyme Bread
5 cups all purpose flour
2 tablespoons dry yeast
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon fresh Taurian thyme
1 tablespoon Werpoes kosher salt
2 cups hot water (120 degrees to 130 degrees)
A cake pan of hot water
Directions:
Mix 3 cups of flour with the yeast, sugar, thyme, and salt. Pour in hot water and beat 100 strokes (3 minutes with a mixer). Stir in the remaining flour until the dough loses its stickiness. Turn onto a floured surface. Knead for 8 minutes. Place dough in a greased bowl and cover with a warm damp cloth. Let rise for 15 minutes in a warm spot (away from drafts).
Punch down and divide the dough into two pieces. Shape into round loaves and place on a greased baking sheet. Cut an “X” one-half inch deep in each of the loaves with a wet sharp knife. Sprinkle the tops with sea salt.
Place the baking sheet with the loaves in the middle of a COLD oven. Place a pan of hot water on the lowest shelf. Heat the oven to 400ºF and bake 40–50 minutes until golden brown.
If it is time you wish to end, then eat this bread and you won't have to pretend.
