Round Sandwich Loaf for a Party Buffet
This soft round loaf is only a first step: once rested, it is hollowed out and filled with small sandwiches before being rebuilt for the buffet table. The closed round Ultra Pro doubles as proving box and tin, giving a neat, even crumb.

Ingredients
Method
Set the oven to 60°C (140°F).
In the Tupperware Measuring Jug 1 l, dissolve the yeast in 50 ml (3½ tbsp) of the lukewarm water and leave for 15 minutes.
In the Tupperware Mixing Bowl 3 l, stir together the flour, salt, dissolved yeast and the remaining 350 ml (1½ cups) water with the Tupperware Mixing Spoon; the dough firms up while staying slightly sticky. With plain flour, finish with a brief knead by hand.
Transfer the dough to the round Tupperware Ultra Pro 2.5 l, cover and let it rise for 35 minutes in the warm oven.
Take the Ultra Pro out without opening it, set the oven to 220°C (425°F) and let it heat for 5 minutes.
Put the covered Ultra Pro back in the oven and bake for 35 minutes.
Let it stand for 5 minutes once out of the oven, then turn it out onto a rack.
Once the loaf is cold, leave it to firm up in the fridge for 24 to 48 hours before slicing, so the crumb holds together.
