Submitted by Mebake on August 1, 2010 - 5:35am My favorite Sourdough 50% Spelt loafThis is a 50% spelt Sourdough I made up, adapting the formula from Hamelman's Mich callier stiff levain: Levain: 275g @ 65% hydration fed with (40% seplt, and 60% AP) Final Dough: - 505g water - 720g Flour (50%AP, 50% WHole SPelt Flour) - 30g (1T) Sea salt. - All Levain (275g) ----------------- 1500g dough @ 70% Hydration Baking day: I dissolved the stiff levain in 505g water, then added the 720g Flour. Left to Autolize for 30 min, then salt went into the dough. I french-Kneaded the dough for 10 min. let rest for 5-10 minutes, then french-kneaded for anoth 5 minutes, and shaped to a tight boule. Fermenation 2.5 Hours with 2 folds. I then divided the dough into 750g doughs, preshapd gently, and then shaped after an hour. Final fermentation for 2 Hours, and into a hot 500F oven reduced to 430F with steam for 15 minutes, 30 min utes without steam.
Taste was very pleasent: typical of mild sourdoughs, with nutty aftertaste from spelt. Versatile for spreads, or even alone! Khalid
Submitted by wholegrainOH on September 9, 2007 - 9:40pm Whole Spelt LoafBack in Ohio after a month in Japan; baked whole spelt loaves so we'd have something to eat, using our faithful King Arthur "New England" starter (although after a decade, I think it's more Ohio than New England). Starter a bit slow after a month away, so not much oven spring. But good crumb. More photos and recipes at www.alan-ohio-bread.blogspot.com if anyone's interested-- Alan |
