Tea, Bread, Apple, and Cheese

Preparing the Tea Boil water and steep tea bags for 3-5 minutes.

Making the Bread In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, yeast, salt, and sugar. Gradually add water and mix until a sticky dough forms. Knead the dough for 5-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover with a clean towel and let it rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours.

Shaping and Proofing the Bread Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Punch down the risen dough and shape it into a loaf. Place the loaf on a greased baking sheet and let it rise again for 30 minutes.

Baking the Bread Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack.

Preparing the Apple Slices Slice the apple into thin wedges or rounds.

Preparing the Cheese Slice the cheese into thin slices.

Assembling and Serving Serve the freshly baked bread with apple slices and cheese. Enjoy with a cup of hot tea.
