Line baking tray with parchment. Divide dough in half and
roll each into a long thin cylinder on a floured work surface.
Place on tray, cover loosely with plastic and allow to rise
for half-hour. Bake in position 1 for 35–40 minutes, rotating
tray halfway through bake time, until bread is a deep
golden brown on top and sounds hollow when tapped
on the bottom.
For rolls:
Divide dough into twelve 2-ounce pieces. Roll each on
a floured work surface with your hands to form a ball.
Place 6 at a time on a parchment-lined baking tray and
cover loosely with plastic to rise for a half-hour. Slash the
tops of the rolls with a serrated knife and brush with egg
wash. Bake in position 2 (middle rack) for 20 minutes,
rotating tray halfway through bake time, until rolls are a
deep golden brown.
