Easy Organic Plain Sifted Wheat Recipe
Ingredients
20g fresh yeast
425ml warm water
680g Dunany Plain Sifted stone ground flour
2 teaspoons salt
15g sugar
25g butter
Seeds for topping e.g. sesame, linseed, pumpkin
Method
Pre heat oven to gas 8, 450F (230c) High shelf
You will need 2 well greased 450g bread tins
Add 425 mls warm water to the fresh yeast and sugar. Stir well and leave to start working for 10
minutes in a warm place until it’s beginning to froth.
Add the salt to the flour in a large bowl and rub in the bitter. Add the liquid yeast mixture and with
your hands, start working the liquid into the flour until you have a soft well mixed dough. Work the
dough well for 10 minutes. Cover the dough in the bowl with cling film and allow to double in size for
about 1 hour. Remove the cling film and knock back the dough, kneading it again for another 5 – 10
minutes. Divide the dough into 2 pieces, shape and place it in the bread tins. Brush tops lightly with
milk and sprinkle with seeds of your choice. Cover with a light cloth and allow to rise again until
doubled in size. Place carefully in the pre-heated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes until golden
brown. Turn out onto a wire rack to cool.
