EUROPEAN SOUR BREAD | |
1 c. gluten flour or all-purpose flour 2 c. flat beer 2 tbsp. butter 2 tsp. salt 2 pkg. dry yeast 1 tbsp. sugar 1/2 c. each wheat germ & whole bran cereal 1 egg yolk mixed with 1 tbsp. water About 2/3 c. yellow cornmeal 1/4 c. dark molasses & warm water 2 c. graham or whole wheat flour, unsifted About 3 1/2 c. all-purpose flour, unsifted Heat beer to steaming. Remove from heat and gradually stir in 1/2 cup of the cornmeal, butter, salt and molasses; set aside to cool to lukewarm. Meanwhile, in large bowl, combine water, yeast and sugar; let stand until bubbly (about 15 minutes). Gradually beat in cooled beer mixture, wheat germ, bran, graham flour and gluten flour. Gradually stir in enough all-purpose flour to make stiff dough. Turn dough out onto floured board. Knead until smooth and satiny (10-20 minutes) adding flour as needed to prevent sticking. Turn dough over in greased bowl; cover and let rise in warm place until doubled (about 1 hour). Punch dough down, cover and let rise again until doubled (about 45 minutes). Sprinkle 2 greased (or 1 large) baking sheets evenly with 2 tablespoons cornmeal. Punch down, knead briefly on lightly floured board to release air; and divide in half into slightly flattened 8 inch round; place on baking sheet. Cover, let rise until doubled (about 40). Using razor blade, make 1/2 inch deep slashes on top of loaves, forming tic-tac-toe design; brush with egg yolk mixture. Bake at 375 degrees for 40 minutes. Cool on rack. |
