50% whole grain w/ carrot, black sesame seed, and turmeric

What a tasty bread! Not sure why, but this definitely has more of a sour tang than most of my breads and I'm loving it. Not the most open crumb, but I think it's solid given that the loaf if 50% whole grains.

  • 25% freshly milled spelt
  • 5% rye
  • 50% KABF
  • 2% salt
  • 85% hydration

  • 1 cup roasted carrots chopped
  • sprinkling of black sesame seeds
