Back to baking, a couple of years later...
I used to bake bread for my family and neighbours at the least twice a week until two years ago, then a marriage breakup and other health issues took over my life, unfortunately...
Now - finally - I'm getting back on track and back to baking! First up I thought I'd trust my rusty knowledge and do a.... probably 90% wholemeal bread. I made it up as I went...
Dry yeast, a biga, a touch of white flour, mostly wholemeal wheat and rye, salt to taste, maybe some toasted and soaked cracked wheat, fermenting and proofing according to visuals and tactile feelings....
It worked out well, I think.... at least it tastes good and visually I am happy with it as well!
