Here is how to make a perfectly baked bread at home. Let cool completely.Dutch Crunch Bread or Tigerbrood is a soft and chewy bread inside covered with a crunchy layer that looks like Tiger’s skin.

Roll each piece of dough into a sandwich roll and set on a parchment lined baking sheetĬover the baking sheet with a damp kitchen towel and set aside to rise for 30 minutes. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide into 4 equal portions. Cover the bowl and set aside to rise until doubled in volume, about 90 minutes. Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl, turning once to coat. The dough should clear the sides of the bowl and cling to the dough hook. Switch to the dough hook and add the remaining flour.

This recipe is the result of several iterations of testing, and I’m positive it’s the best homemade Dutch Crunch recipe on the internet. Made from a yeasted paste of rice flour and sugar, a topping that has the right consistency and sweetness right is key to making this bread shine. The few that are out there all fail to get that crunchy topping right. I’ve tried the few scant recipes available on the internet, and found them all to be lacking. So I’ve made it my mission to correct that mistake. You may be asking - what was it that made Dutch Crunch journey from Holland to San Francisco so specifically? But I ask of you - what is it that has kept it from taking root anywhere else? But once I left college, I realized that it was virtually absent from life down here.
Maybe because my dorm cafeteria, presumably overwhelmed by the demands of NorCal ex-pats, was one of the few places you could find it in the Southland. When I left the Bay to go to college in San Diego, I didn’t realize it couldn’t be found everywhere else. In the Netherlands, where it originates, it’s called Tigerbrood - named for the sweet crispy golden top that gives it that characteristic crunch. Go to any sandwich shop in The City, and you’re guaranteed to see it - alongside the Rye, the Whole Wheat, and yes, the Sourdough. And that bread, my friends, is Dutch Crunch. We consider it no more part of our identity than breathing air or drinking water. And to a certain extent this may be true - it’s a loaf that’s intertwined in the genesis of the city, due in no small part to the work of Isidore Boudin, as well as the grizzled miners who earned the nickname “Ol’ Sourdough.”īut there’s another bread that’s so deeply a part of the San Francisco experience, that it hasn’t even bubbled to the surface of our consciousness. You see, if you asked most people what the definitive bread of San Francisco is (a perfectly normal question), the response you’d undoubtedly get is sourdough. But this recipe was too important to share with the world, so it’s earned a small space here.
