43% wholemeal 43% white 14% ryemeal sourdough with fetta and walnut
Following on from the single loaf dough that i posted yesterday i am posting todays effort which was slightly bigger than the normal batch (EXTRA 500g ryemeal) which resulted in 10 x 500g loaves and 4 x 750g loaves which made the sharing a lot easier.
Tasters all liked it, i could have used a bit more water as the ryemeal and wholemeal both sucked up some of the moisture during the over night stint in the coolroom.
Unfortunately the feta didnt show up in this cut shot but there was plenty in there.
i still have plenty to use up in the next week or so before we start our christmas break.
it may well have to be the home brew stout with heavy heavy feta use but finely crumbled instead of the big chunks.
I think that in the next couple of weeks they want all the wholemeal flour used up too so could be busier than usual.
The Mix
flour 1500g
wholemeal 1500g
ryemeal 500g
salt 65g
sour dough culture 1000g
water 2200g
butter 140g
feta 750g
walnuts 750g
malt extract 100g
and look Andy no added gluten
Mixed in a good spiral mixer, do three stretch and folds over 3 hours adding the feta and walnuts during the folding process to minimise damage to nuts and cheese pieces . Scale and form allow to relax for 30 minutes shape and place up side down onto couche dusted with sharps (semolina) cover and leave in cool room over night.
6.30 AM Take out and transfer to trays, wash with cornflour paste, sprinkle with seeds and score, place into hot combi oven with steam for 10 minutes and temp up to 210c, drop to 200 when steam turned off bake for 35 to 40 minutes cool on wire racks and decide who is going to get a loaf back to my office to start work at 7.45am before most of my work colleagues even roll in.
go back in 1 hour and slice up the loaves left for morning tea.
kind regards Yozza
