LINSEED BREAD

Amazing bread and so easy to do. Very little labor involved. I make the dough in bread machine on dough cycle 2h.20min. Then shape it into a loaf and bake it in the oven for more crispy crust. I use LSA mix which are grounded linseed, sunflower, almond meal. From Nu-Vit company you can find the bag (200g) in supermarkets in healthy sections. Or just the ground flax seeds would work.

1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup water, room temperature
1/2 cup milk, room temperature

Steps:

Put all ingredients in bread machine in order as listed. Program on "dough cycle" mine is for 2h20min. Turn it on let it do the work.
When cycle is done remove dough on floured surface, punch dough few times and shape into a loaf.
Transfer to lightly sprayed tray. Cover with kitchen cloth and let it rest for 25-30 minute Meanwhile preheat the oven to 180°C.
When proofed, cut few marks with sharp knife across the top of the bread carefully not to distract the dough.

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1 kg rye flour
250 g spelt flour (light)
250 ml water (lukewarm)
200 ml butter milk
100 g linseed (crushed/ground)
18 g dry yeast (fast action yeast is best)
2 tsp himalayan salt (or sea salt, or kosher salt)
1 tbsp sugar
4-5 tbsp olive oil

Steps:

1. In a large bowl mix in the flours, sprinkle the salt more towards the edges. Form a well in the middle. Make sure salt is not sprinkled in this well.
2. In a cup/mug mix the yeast with the sugar and pour 100 ml lukewarm water. Mix well until both sugar and yeast dissolve. You could leave it in the cup or pour it in the well formed in the flour. I recommend the latter as leaving it in the cup requires that you keep an eye on it as it will overflow so, best is to pour it in and set aside for around 20 minutes.
3. Once the yeast has become all a big bubble start kneading the bread. Pour the remainder of the water and the buttermilk and the crushed linseed. Mix very well and knead until the dough no longer sticks to your hand. This will probably take 4-5 min or so.
4. Gradually add the olive oil while still kneading. Feel free with punching, slapping, stretching, whatever you feel like doing with it but as I said the low gloutenous flours do not require that much working but maybe half the time (5-6min instead of 10-12 min what would be needed for a higher gluten flour).
5. When finished, smooth the surface into a big ball and cover.
6. Allow to prove for as many hours as you fancy. I normally leave it between 4-8 hrs.
7. When finished with proving just put into the baking tray.
8. Allow to prove again for an extra hour or so and then place in the oven. Bake at 190 C for 40-50 min.
9. When ready, turn oven off and allow a good 20-30 min to cool.
10. Take out of the oven and cover with a towel for another 20-30 minutes outside the oven. Then, take out from baking tray and serve slightly warm or cold with anything you like, whether that is sweet or savoury. Simply divine! P.S. break it if you want to eat it pretty warm and only cut when it has completely cooled.

Tips for Making Linseed Bread:

Choose the right linseed. Golden linseeds are milder in flavor than brown linseeds, so they are a good choice for those who are new to linseed bread.
Grind the linseed finely. This will help the linseed to absorb more moisture and create a more even texture in the bread.
Soak the linseed in water before using. This will help to soften the linseed and make it easier to digest.
Use a combination of flours. Linseed bread can be made with all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, or a combination of both. Using a combination of flours will give the bread a more complex flavor and texture.
Add other ingredients to taste. Linseed bread can be flavored with a variety of ingredients, such as nuts, seeds, dried fruit, and spices. Get creative and experiment with different flavor combinations.

Conclusion:

Linseed bread is a delicious and nutritious bread that is easy to make at home. With its nutty flavor and hearty texture, linseed bread is a great choice for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
