Wholemeal Bread

Assalamualaikum & Salam Sejahtera, 

Ini hasil kerja tangan Jumaat lepas, kali kedua mencuba Wholemeal Bread yang bos request lama dah. Dia mesti ingat wholemeal bread ni menggunakan 100% tepung wholemeal. Tak apa, kalau dia tak tanya, tak payah bagi tahu. Kalau tak, mesti dia suruh cari resepi yang guna 100% tepung wholemeal, ada ke? Tak ada rasanya. Semua resepi yang saya google menggunakan separuh tepung wholemeal dan separuh lagi tepung gandum.

Di cubaan pertama dulu saya menggunakan resepi dari sumber lain yang bahannya lebih kurang sama cuma menggunakan gula menggantikan madu. Tapi disebabkan saya tak fahami betul-betul cara-caranya, hasilnya amat mengecewakan.

Pada cubaan kedua ini, saya tertarik untuk menggunakan resepi dari blog Frugalgirl ini sebab ada banyak gambar dan langkah-langkah penyediannya agak lengkap. Alhamdulillah, cubaan kali kedua ini menjadi walaupun belum 100% perfect!

 

Lepas ni boleh buat selalu (chewah...kononnn)..

Saya kongsikan resepinya di sini buat rujukan.

Whole Wheat Bread

Ingredients:

2 1/3 cups warm water
1/4 cup honey
4 tablespoons butter , melted
1 1/2 tablespoons yeast
2 1/2 teaspoons table salt
3 cups whole wheat flour
2 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus extra for work surface

 Combine 1 cup whole wheat flour, 1 cup white flour, the yeast, and the salt in the bowl of a mixer.

 Add warm water, honey, and melted butter. Mix on low speed until ingredients are combined, then beat on medium speed for 3 minutes.

 Mix in the remaining whole wheat flour, and add enough of the white flour to make a kneadable dough(it should still be fairly soft, though).

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 5 minutes, or until smooth and elastic(if you mixed the dough by hand, you may need to knead it a bit longer).

(saya uli guna mixer selama 45 minit)

 Put the dough back into the mixing bowl, cover with a wet tea towel, and let rise in a warm place for 45 minutes(an hour if your house is cold).

 Punch the dough down, divide it in half, and roll each half out into a rectangular shape. Starting from the short end, roll each loaf up, and place into a greased 9×5 inch bread pan. The rolling may seem like a fussy step, but it produces a loaf with a better crumb and structure, and it also will make your loaves look better.

Cover the loaf with a wet tea towel and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes, or until doubled. Here’s mine before rising(sans the tea towel, obviously):

Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 30 minutes, or until the bottom of the loaf sounds hollow when tapped. Alternatively, you can insert an instant read thermometer into the long side of the loaf…when it reads 205 degrees, the bread is done. Turn out onto a wire rack to cool before slicing. I highly recommend slathering a warm slice with butter.

Selamat Mencuba!
