Ingredients:

Ingredient Quantity
KFC chicken bones As needed
All-purpose flour 400g
Water 240ml (60% hydration)
Salt To taste
Yeast As required

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Bones: Boil the KFC chicken bones for an hour to remove any meat residue. Then, bake them in the oven at 100 degrees Celsius for an hour to dry them out and make them brittle.
  2. Grind the Bones: Once the bones are dry and brittle, grind them into a fine powder using a grinder or mortar and pestle. Sieve the powder to remove any large pieces, leaving you with a smooth bone meal.
  3. Mix the Dough: In a mixing bowl, combine 400g of all-purpose flour with the bone meal. Add water gradually, aiming for a hydration level of around 60%. Mix until a dough forms.
  4. Knead the Dough: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it for about 10 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic.
  5. Let it Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.
  6. Shape and Bake: Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release any air bubbles. Shape it into a loaf or rolls, place them on a baking sheet, and let them rise again for about 30 minutes.
  7. Preheat and Bake: Preheat your oven to 200 degrees Celsius. Once heated, bake the bread for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and hollow-sounding when tapped on the bottom.
  8. Cool and Enjoy: Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Enjoy your Parisian bone bread with a unique twist of KFC flavor!
