This is homemade yeast bread made from a mixture of rye and wheat flour with the addition of dried chamomile. This is the kind of bread, only with the addition of buckwheat flour, we bake in a restaurant. And although the preparation of bread takes a long time, but the result is worth it. It turns out incredibly tasty and fragrant.
Preparation time: 3 hours
Cooking time: 40 minutes
Ingredients:
water – 250 g
wheat flour – 250 g
rye flour – 100 g
vegetable oil – 2 tbsp. l.
yeast (“live”) – 12 g
dry chamomile (small) – 5-10 g
salt – ½ tsp.
Preparation:
To begin, prepare the mash. Dissolve the yeast (12 g) in warm water (250 g) and add sugar (1 tbsp.). Stir a little and leave for 15 minutes for the yeast to start working and form a foamy “cap” on the surface.
Now you need to combine all the dry elements of the dough. In a bowl, mix wheat (250 g) and rye flour (100 g). Stir gently.
Then add ½ tsp. salt and fine dried chamomile (5-10 g to your taste).
Then add to the bowl 2 tbsp. l. vegetable oil and stir. It will make the dough more elastic.
Add the dough and knead the dough, stirring gently with a spoon. Then form a ball of dough with your hands. Cover the dough bowl with a towel and leave in a warm place for 50 minutes to come up.
Then gently wrap the dough. This will help release excess air from it. If necessary, moisten your hands with a little vegetable oil. Return the dough to the bowl and leave it again for 50 minutes in a warm place without drafts for a second rise.
Sprinkle a little flour on the table or board surface. Lay out the dough that came up, and gently hug again.
Form the bread into a ball shape, gently rolling the dough from the center to the edges. Place the ball on a baking sheet covered with parchment and leave again for 30-40 minutes to stand.
Bake the bread in an oven preheated to 220 degrees for about 40 minutes.
It’s easy to cook!
