Poppy Seed Spelt Loaf With Old Dough

Monday, November 11, 2019




Bread made with an old dough / pâte fermentée has a more complex flavour and texture. Use an old dough (Pâte Fermentée) saved from the previous baking, or simply mix together 105 grams of flour, 70ml of water, 2 grams of salt and tiny tiny bit of yeast until a dough forms and leave it, covered with a plastic film, at the kitchen counter overnight. You can double the portion and save the rest in the freezer for up to 3 months.
Aromatic bluegray tiny Poppy Seedsangiesrecipes are used to flavour breads, cakes, cookies, and many other dishes in European and Middle Eastern cooking. Poppy seed is generally recognized as safe for human consumption as a spice or a natural flavoring.

Another loaf baked with an old dough and wholemeal flour.


  1. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, sugar and instant yeast. Add in milk, egg and olive oil. Mix the ingredients until combined. Add in old dough in portions and baking soda. Knead until a soft and smooth dough ball forms. Stir in the two thirds of poppy seeds and mix on the slow speed until incorporated. Alternatively sprinkle all the poppy seeds over the bread before baking.
  2. Shape the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly oiled bowl. Cover with a plastic wrap and let proof until doubled in size. Press the dough down and divide it into 4 or 6 even portions, each about 260 grams or 175 grams. Shape each dough into a ball and let rest, covered, for 10 minutes. One alternative is to divide the dough into 16 even portions for the individual buns.
  3. Flatten each dough and roll out into an oval shape. Fold it into thirds, overlapping them in the center, press the dough down firmly. Turn over and roll out into a 30-cm long strip. Turn over, roll up and pinch seam to seal. Place 3 rolls, seam side down into a greased and floured loaf pan or lined with parchment paper. Cover and let rise until almost to the seam of the baking pan.
  4. Once the dough has risen, brush the top with egg wash and sprinkle the rest of poppy seeds over. Bake in the middle rack of a preheated 200C/400F oven for 15 minutes. Adjust the oven temperature to 175C/350F and bake 18 minutes further or until done. Immediately remove loaves from the pans and cool on a wire rack.

Black Rice Spelt Scones with Arugula and Feta

Thursday, November 07, 2019

Made with freshly milled black rice flour and spelt, these savoury scones with Feta, sour cream and arugula are rich, crumbly, full of flavours and great either for a morning tea or the perfect accompaniment to a bowl of soup for a comforting meal.

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the spelt flour, black rice flour, baking powder, baking soda and coconut sugar. Add in cold butter. Using fingertips, rub butter into flour mixture until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Place it in the freezer for 30 minutes. This helps chill the butter, which will make the scones flakier.
  2. Take it out and crumble in Feta and add in chopped arugula. Stir in sour cream to get a soft dough.
  3. Turn on to a lightly floured work surface and knead very lightly. Pat out to a 2cm thick round. Cut into 8 wedges. Brush the top with sour cream and sprinkle some cracked black pepper over. Place it back to the freezer for 30 minutes. This again will help chill the fat, so that the scones would be flakier.
  4. Preheat the oven to 220C/425F. Bake the scones in the upper part of your oven for 18 to 23 minutes, or until they're a light golden brown.
  5. Remove the scones from the oven, and cool briefly on the pan. Serve warm.

Sourdough Pain d´Epi

Tuesday, October 29, 2019

Pain d'Epi baked with White Levain



Pain d'Epi baked with Rye Sourdough



A stalk of wheat----Epi bread is a type of classic and common artisan bread. Crackly crust and creamy, airy crumb! Store the bread wrapped in butter paper until it is used, and if the bread has started to go stale, sprinkle it with water and bake briefly to refresh it.

  1. Sift together the flour and dry yeast in a bowl. Combine the starter and water in a large mixing bowl. Add in the flour mixture and stir on low speed for 2 minutes. Let the mixture rest for 25 minutes, allowing the flour to absorb the water. Add in salt and stir for 4 minutes on middle speed. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  2. Scrape the dough on to a lightly oiled work surface and pat it out to form a flat rectangle. Fold one end, a third of the length, back to the centre. Fold the other end back over it, like folding puff pastry. Pat it out again and fold it once more. Cover and leave at room temperature for 60 minutes. Repeat pat-flat-fold, leave another hour and repeat one more time. Slash the dough with a razor and if bubbles form in the dough, it’s ready to shape. Or leave the dough one more hour and check again.
  3. Divide the dough into the loaf sizes. Shape each into a baguette by stretching each dough into a rectangles, then folding the bottom and top thirds to the center, pinching the seam together and allowing them to rest for 10 minutes. Fold the dough over lengthwise and press the ends together. Roll each dough back and forth to elongate it to the desired length and taper the ends.
  4. Place the loaves on a baking sheet dusted with flour, cover and let rise until slightly under proofed. Preheat the oven to 210C/420F. Cut one end of the loaf at an angle with a scissor, pull the cut piece of the loaf to left side. Move down a couple of inches, make a snip and pull the cut piece dough to the right. Alternate directions while cutting the dough. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes until golden crispy. Cool them on a rack.

Pumpkin Chilli Mini Cakes with Nutritional Yeast and Herbs

These mini savoury pumpkin loaves are really soft and tender with a nice crust, and are so moreish. They can be enjoyed as a weekday lunch with a seasonal salad or a bowl of soup, or as a snack throughout the day. Most pumpkin cake or bread recipes call for mashed pumpkins, but I decided to try this recipe and have a go at using grated raw pumpkin to create a lovely texture that's moist and a little chewier. Besides that, grated pumpkin will give you attractive flecks of orange in your baked goods.

  • 250 g Organic hokkaido pumpkin
    ©angiesrecipes
    , unpeeled and finely grated
  • 2-3 Red chilli peppers, finely sliced
  • 200 g Refined spelt flour
  • 1 tbsp Baking powder
  • 25 g Nutritional yeast flakes
  • 2 tbsp Fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
  • 3 Large eggs, separated
  • 120 ml Dry white wine (or milk)
  • 1 tsp Sea salt
  • 8 x 5 g Butter for topping, optional
  1. Thoroughly wash the pumpkin. Pat dry with a kitchen towel and finely grate. Rinse the chilli peppers. Dry and chop finely. Prepare a mini loaf pan with 8 holes. For easy removal after baking, grease and line the holes with baking paper.
  2. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F with fan on. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and nutritional yeast in a mixing bowl. Seperate the eggs.
  3. Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites until stiff. Set aside. In another mixing bowl, stir the egg yolks and white wine or milk until well combined.
  4. Stir in grated pumpkin, chopped chilli peppers, herbs and salt until incorporated. Fold in 1/3 of the whipped egg white to lighten up the batter. Now fold in the rest of the egg whites until fully combined.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the 8 loaf pan holes. Top each with a piece of butter if using. Bake in the middle of hot oven for about 25 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the oven and Stand in pan for 5 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool.

Rolled Oat And Apple Bread with Natural White Leaven

Wednesday, October 16, 2019





Natural white leaven refers to sourdough starter made entirely from white flour, either bread or all-purpose flour. The bread made with preferments (either prepared with commercial yeast or wild yeasts and bacteria) yields a more complex flavour and taste. Enjoy this rustic apple oat bread with a bowl of steaming hot soup or a salad for a simple yet satisfying lunch.

  • 50 g Rolled oats
  • 100 g Boiling water
  • 200 g Apple, peeled and grated
  • 50 g Water at 20C/68F
  • 100 g White leaven
  1. Put the rolled oats into a small bowl and pour over the boiling water. Leave aside for 5 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients. Add the grated apple to the water, leaven, and yeast. Stir the mixture well until the yeast is dissolved, then stir the soaked oats into this. In another bowl weigh the flour with the salt. Pour the wet ingredients into the flour and stir the mixture with your hands until it is evenly combined and you have a soft, sticky dough. Scrape any dough from Your fingers into the bowl, cover and leave for 10 minutes.
  2. Rub 1 teaspoon olive oil on the work-surface and knead the dough on the oiled surface for 10 seconds, ending with the dough in a smooth, round ball. Clean and dry the howl, then rub lightly with a teaspoon of olive oil. Return the dough to the bowl, cover, and leave for a further 10 minutes. Remove the dough and knead once more on the oiled surface, returning the shape of the dough to a smooth, round ball. Put it back in the bowl, cover and leave for 1 hour at room temperature.
  3. Lightly flour the work-surface and shape the dough into a baton or a round. Rub a tea-towel with a handful of flour (or use a linen-lined proving basket) and place the dough inside seam-side-up. Wrap the dough snugly in the cloth, and leave to rise for 1 1/2 hours, or until almost doubled in height.
  4. Preheat the oven to 210C/410F. Upturn the loaf on to a flour dusted tray, then brush the surface of the loaf with the egg wash and dust with rolled oats. Bake the loaf in the centre of the oven for 30 minutes, then lower the heat to 190C/375F and bake for a further 15-20 minutes, until the loaf is a good brown, feels light in weight, and sounds hollow when tapped on the base. Leave to cool on a wire rack.

Quinoa Filled Hokkaido

Sunday, October 13, 2019


http://schneiderchen.de | © 2013 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




Autumn means PUMPKINS, one of the very low calorie vegetables. They are a particularly good source of dietary fibre, as well as a range of vitamins and minerals.
Quinoa (a mix of white and red), cooked in vegetable stock, scented with cinnamon, tossed with pumpkin seeds and cranberries, is stuffed into Hokkaido pumpkin halves, then baked until tender for a delicious, gluten-free, vegetarian meal. You can easily replace the Hokkaido with another squash like acorn or kabocha.

  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 Small yellow onion, cut into 1/3-inch dices
  • 3/4 tsp Ground cumin
  • 150 g Quinoa, rinsed in cold water and drained
  • 450 ml Vegetable stock
  • 50 g Dried, unsweetened cranberries
  • 1 / 800 g Hokkaido pumpkin
  • 30 g Pumpkin seeds
  • 1/3 tsp Ground cinnamon
  • 1-2 tsp Fresh lemon juice
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  1. Heat the olive oil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. When it is hot, add the diced onion and ground cumin and cook, stirring frequently, until the onion is soft and golden brown, about 10 minutes.
  2. Add the quinoa to the saucepan and stir to coat the grains. Add the stock and raise the heat to high. When the liquid comes to a boil, reduce the heat to low, add the cranberries, and cover the pan. Cook at a slow simmer until the liquid has been absorbed, 20 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, cut the Hokkaido pumpkin in half. Scoop out and discard the seeds and fibers. Place the pumpkin halves on a rimmed baking sheet and set it aside.
  4. When the quinoa is cooked, remove the pan from the heat and stir in the pumpkin seeds, cinnamon and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat the oven to 190C/375F.
  6. Divide the quinoa filling among the pumpkin halves. Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and roast until the quinoa is hot and the flesh of the pumpkins is tender when pierced with a skewer or fork, 50 minutes. Serve immediately.

Fresh Ginger, Walnuts and Sesame Seed Logs

Wednesday, October 09, 2019

http://schneiderchen.de | © 2019 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




http://schneiderchen.de | © 2019 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


Full of quality and tasty ingredients, these sesame logs with walnuts, oats and fresh ginger are easy to make and are perfect as a on the go energy snack, a sweet lunchbox filler, or as an afternoon pick-me-up without the refined sugar. Instead of logs, you can shape these into balls or bars if you prefer. Can't find Medjool dates? No problem. Just use regular deglet noor dates, which are equally delicious and sweet with a firmer texture. Medjool dates, by contrast, have a rich, almost caramel-like taste and a soft, chewy texture.

  • 120 g Walnuts, toasted
  • 45 g Rolled oats
  • 200 g Medjool dates, pitted and chopped
  • 1 tbsp Freshly grated ginger
  • 1/3 tsp Black salt
  • 50 g Sesame seeds, toasted
  1. Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the walnuts to the hot, dry pan in a single layer. Cook, stirring frequently until the walnuts start to brown and they smell toasted, about 5 minutes. Transfer the walnuts to a plate or baking tray to cool completely.
  2. Process walnuts and oats in a food processor until finely chopped. Add in dates, ginger and salt. process until mixture forms a paste.
  3. Shape level tablespoons of mixture into 5cm long logs and place them on a baking-paper-lined tray. Chill for 15 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, stir sesame seeds in a frying pan over medium heat for 2 minutes or until lightly toasted. Cool. Roll logs in sesame seeds and chill for 1- 2 hours or until firm.
