I was over at my friend's house and her dad made home made Italian bread and we had meatball sandwiches. It was sort of like a sub shaped bread like you would find at Quizno's. So how do I make this Italian bread?
Thanks|||1 cup warm water (between 105 and 115 degrees F)
1/2 cup warm skim milk (between 105 and 115 degrees F)
2 Tbsp. honey
2-1/4 tsp. active dry yeast
3 cups bread flour
1 cup semolina flour
1 tsp. sea salt (such as Maldon sea salt)
2 Tbsp. olive oil
coarse cornmeal
olive oil-flavored nonstick cooking spray
In the mixing bowl of an electric mixer or a large mixing bowl, combine water, milk, and honey. Sprinkle yeast over top. Allow to stand 10-15 minutes until foamy. Add 2 cups of bread flour. Using electric stand mixer or electric hand mixer, beat on low for 4 minutes. Cover bowl with a towel. Place in an unheated oven and allow to stand 1-2 hours.

Remove bowl from oven and add remaining cup of bread flour, semolina flour, salt and olive oil. Using your electric mixer with a dough hook, beat for 5 minutes. Spray another large mixing bowl with nonstick cooking spray. Pour dough into that bowl. Turn over until dough is covered with oil. Cover and let rest 15 minutes.

Sprinkle a cookie sheet with several teaspoons of cornmeal. Divide dough in half. Shape each half into an oval mound. Flatten slightly until each half is about 6 inches across. Spray tops of dough loaves with nonstick spray. Put cookie sheet into unheated oven to rise another 30 minutes to 1 hour, until doubled. Remove dough from oven. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Using a sharp knife, make 3 slits across top of bread about 1/4 inch deep. Fill a small round cake pan with 1/2 inch of water. Place on cake pan on bottom rack in oven. Place cookie sheet with bread dough on it on the middle rack of the oven. Bake 25 minutes or until lightly browned. If bread browns too quickly, cover it with foil for the last 5-10 minutes of baking.|||If you add garlic powder, oregano, & parmesan cheese to your regular roll dough that should do it. Start with small amounts and adjust it every time you make it until it suits you. Then just shape it like a sub.
