Sevillian Bollo
Bollo () is a typical and very popular bread in Seville, in the south of Spain. It contains flour, water, sourdough, salt and little yeast. It is a white bread, thin crust and ''bregada'' dough, which results in a spongy but very compact crumb. Each unit weighs between 150 and 200 gr, is about 20 cm long and the traditional scoring consists of a single longitudinal cut. It is a derivative of the Castillian candeal bread. It is consumed in the Seville area and practically all of western Andalusia. The ''bollo'' is a classic among the breads produced in Alcalá de Guadaíra, a city with a great baking tradition. The ''candeal'', ''bregada'' or ''sobada'' dough is a traditional bread dough from Spain. Their names refer to the process (''sobar'' or ''bregar'' ''la masa'', "to knead strongly the dough") that is made with the help of a machine with two cylinders called ''sobadora'' or ''bregadora''. By means of this technique, a harder, malleable and homogeneous mass is left, and ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

White Bread
White bread typically refers to breads made from wheat flour from which the bran and the germ layers have been removed from the whole wheatberry as part of the flour grinding or milling process, producing a light-colored flour. This milling process can give white flour a longer shelf life by removing the natural oils from the whole grain. Removing the oil allows products made with the flour, like white bread, to be stored for longer periods of time avoiding potential rancidity. The flour used in white breads is often bleached further—by the use of flour bleaching agents such as potassium bromate, azodicarbonamide, or chlorine dioxide gas to remove any slight natural yellow shade and make its baking properties more predictable. This is banned in the EU. Some chemicals are also banned from use in other countries. In the United States, consumers sometimes refer to white bread as "sandwich bread" or "sandwich loaf". It is often perceived as an unhealthy, bland, and unsophisticat ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Alcalá De Guadaíra
Alcalá de Guadaíra () is a town located approximately 17 km southeast of Seville, Spain; in recent years the expansion of Seville has meant that Alcalá has become a suburb of that city. Alcalá used to be known as ''Alcalá de los Panaderos'' (Alcalá of the Bakers) because it provided most of Seville's bread. The town is located on the banks of the Guadaíra River, and watermills built during the Moorish period of Spain can still be found in the area. History ''Irippo'', the main Turdetan city in the Guadaíra basin, was located in Mesa de Gandul (Alcalá de Guadaíra), and minted its own coin in Roman times.

Telera (Spanish Bread)
In Spain, telera is a typical bread from the area of Córdoba (in Andalusia). Includes ~W130 wheat flour, sourdough, water, salt and yeast. Its peculiar shape, which resembles a '' montera'' (the traditional hat of a ''torero''), is the result of the deep marks (''greña'') that are made, generally two, and diagonally along the piece. Being a candeal bread, it is quite durable, but when it gets hard, it is typically used to make salmorejo from Córdoba. Features The ''telera cordobesa'' belongs to a family of Spanish breads called ''panes candeales'' ('candeal breads', also known as ''pan bregado'' or ''pan sobado''), which have a long tradition in Andalusia, Extremadura and the two Castiles. These breads are made from durum wheat ( ''Triticum turgidum'' var. ''durum'' L.). Origin Traditionally it is said that the name of telera is a contraction of ''tres hileras'' ("three rows"), since it consists of two diagonal ridges that separate the bark into three parts. But the aut ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
