Why these are the Best Bread for Soup

  • A huge variety, find everything from homemade bread bowls to artisan bread like focaccia. Quickbreads to light and airy yeasted breads; something for everyone!
  • For my gluten-free and celiac friends out there, I’ve got a whole section of Gluten-Free Bread recipes that go with soup too!
  • Fresh baked bread beats stale bread any day, unless you are making croutons or baked french toast, then stale bread rules!

Basic Bread Baking Ingredients

Every great recipe starts with quality ingredients, these are just a guide and my favorite bread baking ingredients. Be sure to browse the recipes below and print the recipe card.

FLOUR | every bread or roll recipe starts with flour, of some kind.

  • Bread Flour | I love King Arthur bread flour and Bob’s Red Mill Bread Flour
  • Unbleached All Purpose Flour | I love using organic here, be sure to use the type of flour recommended in the recipe, the gluten content changes with the flour type.
  • Specialty Flours | Some recipes call for Whole Wheat flour, Rye Flour, Spelt flour, rice flour, garbanzo flour or Whole Wheat pastry flour
  • Gluten-Free Flour | There are many options and varieties out there, but my favorite GF blends are Bob’s Red Mill 1-to-1 and King Arthur Cup for Cup.

LIQUID | Most bread recipes require some form of liquid.

  • Water | Read the recipe carefully, some recipes call for room temperature water or warm water.
  • Milk | some recipes use milk, it might use warm milk, heated milk, or room temperature milk, some recipes even use yogurt and plant based milks.

Types of YEAST

If making yeasted breads and rolls, you need yeast, there are actually 6 different types.

  • Active Dry Yeast (this is traditional yeast) – It needs to be activated in warm water.
  • Instant Yeast – pretty much the same as active dry yeast but does not need to be proofed or activated in warm water.
  • Bread Machine Yeast | this typically comes in a jar and while it is great for use in bread machines or with pizza dough, you can usually use it for other breads as well.
  • Fresh Yeast | I used to see this all the time at the grocery stores, it was stored near in the dairy products — nowadays you don’t see it too often.
  • Rapid Rise Yeast | Rapid rise yeast works best when a short rise is needed.
  • Wild Yeast | commonly known as sourdough starter, yes, it’s actually a yeast! Try my friend Julie’s sourdough bread starter if you have never tried it!

SALT & SUGAR

Salt gives all baked goods great flavor and sugar; both granulated and brown sugar will aid in feeding the yeast.

OTHER | Some bread recipes call for eggs or an egg wash, I typically use large eggs for my baking. You might also find some recipes that use a little olive oil or other oils or even butter in some bread recipes.
Herbs, spices, molasses, dried fruit, and even coffee are found in some recipes. And even still there are unique breads that use seeds like caraway, fennel, poppy seeds and even sesame seeds.

Best Bread Baking Equipment

Here are a few tools you will find handy when baking bread, from easy recipes to the more complex Dutch Oven recipes,

  • Large Bowl | love my Mason Cash mixing bowls, they are sturdy, solid, can go from fridge to oven for proofing and so much more. Invest in a good mixing bowl.
  • Sharp Knife | Whether you are chopping ingredients or scoring your bread, you want a nice sharp knife — a bench scraper also comes in handy.
  • Baking Sheet | My favorite sheet pans are these USA made ½ sheet pans, they are sturdy, clean up amazingly easy and are workhorses in the kitchen, baking everything from rolls to cookies, to catching spills. Don’t forget the parchment paper.
  • Measuring Cups | You want solid, accurate measuring cups for dry ingredients as well as liquid measuring cups, may favorite are glass, but I also love these angled measuring cups. — and as long as we’re talking about measuring, a kitchen scale is also a must especially if you are working with a more advanced bread recipe.
  • Stand Mixer | While not necessary, people have been baking bread for centuries without a stand mixer with a dough hook, but they DO make your job so much easier!
  • Pizza Stone | if you are making pizza to go with your soup (oh yeah!), or maybe just baking some breadsticks or biscuits, a pizza stone adds lovely color to baked goods!
  • Fancy Equipment | Most of the time you can easily get by with everyday equipment, simple ingredients and a good hot oven! Things like a proofing basket, dough whisk or French-style lame are nice, but not required.
  • Bread Machine | Again, this is not a must have, I do have a few recipes that start in the bread machine and finish in the oven. This is my dream bread machine.
  • Dutch Oven | If you have been on social media the past few years, you know that Dutch oven artisan bread baking has taken the world by storm! Super versatile — bake bread, make amazing soups, stews, braise ribs and more. Low to High Quality Priced are available, purchase what you can afford, you will have this for decades.

Best Bread Baking Tips

  • If this is the first time you are making a recipe, read it all the way through — I cannot tell you how many times I’ve been caught with — allow to rise overnight in the fridge, or be sure to find a warm place for the second rise. So read it all the way through so you know what is ahead of you.
  • Unless otherwise called for, start your recipes using room temperature ingredients.
  • If it’s a cold day and you keep your house cool, be sure to warm your oven to 100 degrees and then shut off BEFORE you place your dough in for the first rise.
  • Place some flour in a small airtight container and keep near your bread working surface, then you can grab a little bit of flour to dust the floured surface you will be working on.
  • Preheat your oven and while you are at it, invest in an oven thermometer so you know that your oven is heating to the correct temperature.
  • Store yeast in the fridge if not using often, and if less frequent, store in the freezer. Sealed in an airtight container.
  • Not sure if your yeast is still good? In a small bowl dissolve ½ teaspoon sugar in ¼ cup warm water and add one package or 2 teaspoons of yeast to the mixture, stir gently, wait 10 minutes. If the yeast is alive, it will smell yeasty and will be bubbly or foamy, if it’s dead, it will pretty much look the same as when you started.

Frequently Asked Questions

What bread goes with soup?

Sourdough and Rye breads go great with hearty soups and tomato based soups.
A crusty bread like French bread, Italian bread or baguettes are great with both creamy and brothy soups as they hold up well to dipping.
White bread is super absorbent and doesn’t have strong flavors, so it goes well with full-bodied and heartier soups.
Multigrain bread is perfect for the earthy soups, like Minestrone or a good Beef Stew.
Cornbread, Biscuits and Beer Bread all pair very well with chili’s, stews, pot roasts that require sopping up.

Do you put bread in soup?

Yes, you sure can, just like you put croutons or a slice of toasted french bread with parmesan cheese into a steaming bowl of French Onion soup, you can actually bulk up or thicken a soup by adding pieces of bread to the soup.

What type of bread are bread bowls?

Typically a round, bowl-sized loaf of bread, with the top removed and the inside hollowed out to make room for the soup to be ladled in. Larger than a roll but smaller than a loaf of bread and are a great way to serve soup. The best part, you can eat your bowl! Try making your own bread bowls using this recipe from Sally’s Baking Addiction.

Does all bread have to rise before baking?

Any bread with yeast, typically requires at least one rise, two rises for the best texture and flavor. But breads made without yeast; such as with baking powder, baking soda or other leavening agents will do their rising in the oven, while baking.
