Teff Miche

by | Sep 4, 2017 | Bread, Fermentation

My brother in California uses some nice from flours Giustos. And while he lacks any rye or other desired grains, I did find a bag of teff! That led me to a Teff formula from Birdsong. The trick to Teff usage is pre-gelatinization followed by adding starter. Remember to use rice flour and or rye, as teff is sticky on bannetons.

    Hi Tia,
    Gelatinize, means to boil water and add flour….sort of a custard…then cool….add in levain in for the refreshment..
