[...] more dressing or olive oil if needed. Adjust seasonings. I served this in bread bowls I made using THIS RECIPE. These bowls are easier to make than my herbed potato bread bowls, but they come out more like [...]

I just finished making 2 double and 1 single batch, dividing the dough into 6 pieces per batch to get 30 smallish bowls to serve chili to a group of campers (aged 6-8).

I used unbleached bread flour, and whey from making mozzarella cheese instead of water. I ommitted the herbs just because of the audience. The dough was a DREAM to work with! I slightly underbaked the bowls so that I can freeze them then reheat them by baking for a few minutes.

Thank you for a wonderful recipe!

I made these tonight to put my broccoli and cheese soup. I followed the instructions exactly and they turned out well! They were a little thin, but I still liked them. I split the dough into four pieces and covered bowls that hold 2 cups. And for anyone who is interested, the bowls are around 310 calories each if you make four bread bowls and use olive oil. Thanks for the cool idea!

Karen, it should hold up fine for thicker soups, but setting it on your dinner plate or on a small platter is at least needed just in case.

Charlotte, instant yeast can be replaced with half as much more active dry yeast (about 1 1/8 tsp for this recipe). It needs to be rehydrated for 5 to 10 minutes in the warm water, but you already knew that

i need advice on this- believe it or not- i can’t seem to find rapid yeast.
i can find bread machine yeast but at 7.99 for jar- well yikes.
can i use dry active yeast? but how much?

What a clever idea! I’m guessing you still need to put the whole thing into a real bowl just in case, right?

Wow, found this page through Yahoo Search Engine while looking for a bread bowl recipie, and while I found a bunch of Puffy, hollow this out, use a bread machine ones. I was SO happy and excited to see this one. Great presentation! I also love the way you did your Ingredients. My mom is still in germany and we trade recipies all the time, this makes it so much easier since I admit I am not that good at switching it all the time…LOL. I am cooking them tonight for my B-day dinner. Beef Stew in bread bowls. (I am adding some cheese on my bowls instead of herbs for a little different flavor.

Thank you again for sharing this wonderful idea, and pictures!
