Instructions
- 1Sift half the flour, mix with salt and yeast in a large mixing bowl, and slowly add warm water until the mixture forms a stiff dough. Add more sifted flour until you have a stiff enough dough to knead.
- 2Lightly flour the work surface, knead the dough for 10 minutes until it is smooth and elastic, and then place it in a greased bowl. Now place the bowl warmly for 40-50 minutes until it has doubled. You know the dough is ready when you poke a finger, and the indentation remains.

Chef tips
For extra soft and airy rolls, make sure to knead the dough until it's very supple. Let the kids help with the kneading—it's great exercise for little hands and really improves the texture. This salt bread is perfect for a traditional Barbadian 'cutter.' Slice the roll open while warm and fill it with fried fish, high-quality cheese, or even a hearty omelet for dinner.
