Peter Reinhart's Thin Wheat Crackers on p.291 in Whole Grain Breads
My interpretation used Spelt Flour type 700 glatt (fine) with additional 30g flour to the recipe.
Chestnut fettuccine with toasted pignoli nuts and sage bring out the pasta’s smoky and rustic flavor. Chestnut fettuccine compliments grilled venison and turkey and adds a new dish to your holiday dinner.
Chestnut flour has a very strong flavor and you may want to experiment with different amounts of flour.
I'm relatively new to breadmaking and I've been lurking here quite a bit. I think it's about time I made my first post, but since I want to show off my bread, why not make it a blog post?

This website is awsome!! Eating homade bread is the best thing in the world. The bread I made before finding this website was junk, but now I'll give my bread away to anybody willing to eat it and feel proud. I've started the sourdough starter listed under "handbook" and everything happened as written. Its the 8th day , but on the 6th day it started smell beerey. About 30 min after I feed it it smells kinda nutty but as the day goes on it gets back to beerey. Is this normal?
A full cooling rack!

(please don't look at my sink full of dishes. I promise I washed them all after dinner)

I came back from vacation!
I made this Barley batard (1/3 barley , 2/3 Whole Wheat), hearth bread.
Al though i used volume measurements, it turned our more or less sufficient. here it goes:
1 cup naked barley flour (1/3)
2 Cups Whole Wheat flour (2/3)
1 table spoon salt
1/4 teaspoon yeast
1.85 Cup of water, so roughly the final dough is 62% hydration (i could not elevate the hydration further because of the barley flour which kind of hinders the shaping process).
We're invited for dinner tomorrow at the home of one of my favorite high school teachers. He and his wife have become our good friends over the years. I offered to bring bread and decided to bake two different breads that I think they will enjoy: The Miche, Pointe-à-Callière from Hamelman's "Bread" and my own San Joaquin Sourdough. (This version)
My wife thought the miche would be just too much, so I divided the dough and baked two boules of 820 gms each.
The inspiration for this bake:

Susan at Wild Yeast has incredible breads on her site and I've printed out quite a few to try. This was one of them. 
I've been wanting to try "Pain Normande" ever since seeing it on SteveB's blog recently. Not only did I want to attempt to replicate his lovely bread, but I also conveniently have a ton of apples that I needed to use up. There are a lot of orchards around where I live so it's easy to come by (free!) great apples and fresh pressed apple cider. So, I threw a bunch of these apples in the dehydrator and got out the cider for this loaf.
