Yesterday evening I felt like baking bread, but I didn't want to stand in the kitchen for hours. Luckily, I found a fast and delicious recipe for Pain d'Epi - wheat stalk bread. It was so far the most delicious bread that has left my oven. As you will recognise on the photos, when forming the bread, I forgot to turn the pieces from one side to the other.
Ingredients:
350 g bran flour
150 g whole wheat flour
200 ml water
200 ml yoghurt
6 g active dry yeast
1 tabelspoon salt
For the mix all ingredients together and knead for about 3 minutes until it becomes smooth. Set aside and let it raise for 30 minutes. Form a bread of 45 cm long and place it on a baking sheet with baking paper (you can also bake it on a stone if you got) and with a help of scissors cut it 6 times on the right side and turn every second piece to the left and let it raise for another 30 minutes. Bake on 180°C for about 40 mintues.

The bread looks great, mega, but please tell me what is bran flour, either a description in English or the German word. I know bran, and I found "reduced bran flour" to be sifted whole weat flour to contain e.g. 20% of the original bran content.
Further comment: I use much less salt in my breads, was it not too salty?
Bran flour isch theoreisch Ruchmehl :) nope the bread wasnt too salty, but we taste all different
Gyönyörű!
Most én is kedvet kaptam a sütéshez!!!
