KAMUT FLOUR BREAD
Kamut is higher in protein and many minerals, especially selenium, zinc, and magnesium than other wheat products. If you have gluten intolerance, and avoid wheat, you may be able to eat some forms Kamut. However, as it is a wheat species, it is unsuitable for those with coeliac disease.

Steps:
- Place all ingredients in your baking pan in order recommended by your bread machine manufacturer. Set for "whole wheat" and ordinary browning.
- Don't omit the corn starch. Kamut has relatively no gluten so the bread will turn out too crumbly to slice without the addition of some sort of thickening agent.

KAMUT FLOUR BREAD FOR BREAD MACHINE (WHEAT-FREE)
I spent months developing a tasty (and easy) wheat-free bread recipe, and this is my final product. This recipe also works really nicely with spelt flour, but I'm almost as allergic to spelt as I am to wheat and, of course, spelt is not gluten-free. I'm pretty sure kamut is. Please let me know if anyone has success making this recipe with any other alternate grain flours. The xanthan gum is a critical element to provide "slice-ability" without the bread crumbling apart.

Steps:
- Combine the first three dry ingredients (flour, salt, xanthan gum).
- Combine the liquid ingredients (oil, honey, water) in a microwaveable bowl. Warm in microwave using 30 second increments until you can mix the liquids. Do not overheat - warm to the touch is best - hot water will kill the yeast.
- Add the liquid ingredients, dry ingredients, and yeast in the order specified by your bread machine manufacturer (mine is liquid on bottom, dry next, and yeast on top).
- Use a basic bread and light crust setting.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Mix the flour and water. Cover to autolyse for 1-2 hours.
- Add the starter and salt to the dough, pinching and kneading to incorporate the additions. Cover and let rest for 30-40 minutes.
- After the rest, begin a series of stretching and folding every 20-30 minutes. I did six stretch and folds for the all-Kamut and the 40%, and four for the 20% Kamut.
- Cover and let bulk ferment for a total of 6-12 hours from when you added the leaven. The time will depend on your room temperature. (My all-Kamut fermented 9.5 hours at 75 F. The 40% fermented 11 hours, 3 hours at 76 F and 8 hours at 64 F. The 20% fermented 10 hours at 72 F.)
- Scrape the dough onto a well floured surface. Dust the top of the dough with flour and stretch/press it into a rectangular shape. Fold it in thirds and then in half as per this video.
- Cover and let the dough rest for 15-20 minutes while you prep a basket/tea towel with all-purpose flour, rice flour, or bran flakes.
- Flip the dough and shape it into a boule or batard, depending on your baking vessel. Lay it in your basket seam side up for smooth scoring, or seam side down for a rustic look.
- Let the dough proof 60-90 minutes at room temperature, or 6-10 hours in the refrigerator. I proofed the whole grain loaf in the refrigerator for 7 hours, as the dough was very sticky and difficult to handle. The 40% and 20% doughs proofed at room temperature for 75 and 90 minutes, respectively.
- Thirty minutes before the end of the proofing stage, preheat your oven to 500 F with the baking vessel inside.
- Flour your hand and flip the dough out of the basket. Gently place it in the hot baking vessel. Score the top, cover, and bake:
- 500 F for 30 minutes lid on
- 450 F for 10 minutes lid off
- Or until the internal temperature is over 205 F.

Steps:
- Autolyse
- Mix together the flour and most of the water (reserve 20g water) until completely incorporated. Cover and let autolyse for 1-2 hours.
- Bulk Fermentation
- Add the starter to the dough by spreading it on the surface, stretching and folding the dough over the starter and gently kneading it into the dough. Cover and let sit for about 30 minutes.
- Dissolve the salt into the 20g of reserved water and add the mixture to the dough the same way you added the starter. Cover the dough and let it rest for about 30 minutes.
- With 30 minutes rests in between each gluten development maneuver, coil fold the dough, then laminate it, and then coil fold it twice more. Here are videos of gluten development techniques.
- Let the dough continue to rise until it has grown by about 75% and has some surface bubbles. See photo gallery below for before and after photos.
- Calculating from when the starter was added, Version 1's bulk fermentation was 6 hours at room temperature, 12 hours in the refrigerator, and another 1 hour at room temperature. Had I not refrigerated the dough, I suspect 7-8 hours would have sufficed. Version 2's bulk fermentation was 5 hours at room temperature. This shorter time can be attributed to both the larger amount of starter and higher hydration of the dough.
- Pre-Shape, Bench Rest, Shape
- Scrape the dough out onto a lightly floured countertop and pre-shape it into a ball.
- Lightly dampen the top of the dough or cover it, and let it rest for about 20 minutes. Prepare your proofing basket with flour.
- Shape the dough. Here are some videos if you want shaping pointers.
- Flour the top of the dough, flip it into your proofing basket and cover.
- Final Proof
- Let the dough proof until it has expanded in volume and looks a bit puffy. See the photo gallery below for before and after photos.
- Version 1 proofed 1.5 hours at room temperature and Version 2 proofed for 13 hours in the refrigerator.
- Bake
- Preheat your oven to 500F for 30 minutes with your baking vessel inside.
- Flip your dough onto parchment paper, score it, and load it into the hot baking vessel.
- Bake at 500F for 20 minutes with the lid on.
- Then, if you're baking in cast iron, slide a baking sheet under the vessels, same shelf, direct contact.
- Lower the oven temperature to 450F and bake for an additional 10 minutes with the lid on.
- Remove the lid and bake for 5-10 minutes more.
Tips:
- Choose the right flour: Kamut flour is a great choice for bread because it is high in protein and fiber, and it has a slightly nutty flavor. If you don't have Kamut flour, you can substitute all-purpose flour.
- Activate the yeast: Before you add the yeast to the dough, be sure to activate it in warm water. This will help the yeast to grow and produce carbon dioxide, which will give your bread a light and airy texture.
- Knead the dough properly: Kneading the dough helps to develop the gluten, which gives bread its structure. Knead the dough for at least 10 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.
- Let the dough rise: After you have kneaded the dough, let it rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in size. This will give the yeast time to ferment and produce carbon dioxide.
- Bake the bread at a high temperature: Baking the bread at a high temperature will help to create a crispy crust and a light and airy interior.
