My Best Multiti-Grain Bread
Chief's Muti-grain Bread
Ingredients:
3 cups unbleached bread flour
1/4 cup pearl barley
1/4 cup white chia seed
1/4 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup almond flour
1/4 cup buckwheat flour
2 tbs. vital wheat gluten
1/4 cup what bran
1/4 cup broken sunflower seeds
1/4 cup psililum husks
2 tsp. SAF Red or Gold instant yeast*
3 3/4 tsp. kosher salt
3 tbs. granulated white sugar
2 cups plus 2 tbs. cool water
6 tbs. Unsalted butter
Place all dry ingredients, except the unbleached white flour into a blender, and blend to make a smooth flour. Place flour, sugar, salt, multi-grain mix ture, and yeast into a large bowl and whisk together. Add room temperature water. Knead by hand for ten minutes, or with a dough hook in your mixer for 7 minutes. Wet hands and use a small piece of dough to perform a window test. If the dough is good, rub a small amount of butter all over the dough, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rest at room temp. for 1 hour. Add the butter and knead for 5 minutes to fully incorporate the butter into the dough. Do the window test again. If the dough passes, divide the dough into two equal pieces and fold all edges inward.
Shape each portion into a rectangle the length of your loaf pans. Gently rock the dough to make the bottom seam smooth. Place into well buttered bread pans. Dust plastic wrap with four and place over the bread pans. Let rise for about an hour at room temperature, or until the dough rises a little over the pan top. Preheat the oven to 350’ F. brush the dough top with melted butter and place in the oven. Bake for 40 minutes. The bead should be lightly browned and sound hollow when tapped. Remove from the oven and let rest for 3 minutes. Invert loaf pans to remove bread to cooling rack. Brush the loaves with butter. Let cool for 2 hours before slicing.
Again, this is a solidly good loaf of bread that is great for French Toast, or toast and butter with fried eggs, as an accompaniment to pasta, stew, or soups. It's also very good sandwich bread, especially for grilled cheese., and BLT's. It has great texture, and tastes great.
Its also a really great bread for making pigs in the blanket with full-sized hot dogs.
Enjoy.

for many years. I have finally broken down and bought one. I like it but am still getting used to it. Got it mainly because my hands cannot do a lot of the kneading needed. Life is also very different for me here and I found the time factor of waiting between rises were never working out for me... hence the machine.
