Einkorn & Wheat Levain

by | Dec 22, 2014 | Uncategorized

Einkorn is the ancient grain that's regained popularity recently. But it remains something of a mystery when it comes to handling. While high in protein, the flour is weak in gluten, so shaping a decent loaf can be a challenge.  After a long proof, designed to allow me to fold for strength, I unceremoniously decided to plop this dough into a loaf pan. However sloppy, I got this delicious crusty and moist crumb bread.
