Einkorn a wonderful Organic flour
 

Hi all .....anyways, you know I am always looking for healthy things to make that taste good. I was scouring the web for a recipe to make healthy bread. I already know a good one but I search anyway. Well, I found this website where she talks about making bread with this delicious "Einkorn"

This happens to be a very ancient wheat, about 12,000 years old. It is not harvested anymore because it doesn't give enough to make a good profit. It is not hybridized it is pure and natural and organic. It is farmed in Italy. Jovial is the only big company that sells it. I have ordered a 10 pound bag of it and box of the wheat berries to try. It has wonderful things in it.

Go search read about it. I love to find stuff like this. I don't want to give up my bread but this I can have. In the meantime I have bought a loaf of Fitness bread and figured out how to make it already but with this organic flour, it will will be some wonderful bread as I will be adding all my nuts and bolts to it lol. I will post when all is here and ready.

The best part, no shipping if you spend 25.00. Make sure to join first and they will send you a 10% discount coupon.

I will have to check this out, sounds interesting. Also your bread recipe sounds delicious. WOuld you share it also? Thanks

Would you help us narrow down our search by posting the link you ordered from. I have a grain grinder for my KA and would like to try the berries and also some flour.
Your T&T bread recipe would be a great bonus for us to make some. The processed U.S. grains make my joints hurt like crazy.
Thank you

Here are two links. One to the source that sells it and one to the lady who gave the history that got me interested. I am always improving on my bread recipe. As soon as the flour comes I will make my new recipe, test it and post it here.

Oh! I am so excited to read this post! 2 years ago I was diagnosed with gluten allergies and most gf breads are like cardboard.....and very expensive. I was wondering if anywhere in this world sold "natural" wheat that hasnt been altered. I'm anxiously awaiting your post on what you think of this product!

Thank you for the links, have placed an order for some berries and a box of pasta. Really miss playing with fresh dough and am hoping all goes well with the joints not hurting. The sourdough recipes look interesting, lots of options to try on the recipe site.

Oh good, I'm glad you found this useful. I certainly do. I am always searching for good stuff and I am a cooker and baker so this is right up my street. I can't wait to try it out.

I went online and found a store in my area that carries this. Can't wait to go and check it out. There are stores
All across the USA that carries their products.

Whole Foods carries these products. There is a great cookbook, The Einkorn Cookbook: Discover the world's purest and most ancient form of wheat. It's by Shanna and Tim Mallon, about 17.00.

Thanks for the interesting einkorn information!!!!

Yes, please share. A friend of mine would love to know more and so would I. Thanks

I will share it as soon as I make a patch with this flour. It should be arriving any day soon now. BTW, this bread that I am making, will have physillium husk powder in it. Physillium hold the ingredients together and no white flour or egg is going in. Physillium has a lot of fiber. I have ordered 42 ounce of it from my vitamin company....so all that has to come into play. In the meantime, I will be gathering up all the other supplies that I need. This will be a real health bread. I know some of the things that will go into it anyway. sunflower seeds, flax seeds (ground) oats, molasses, There are some other nuts or seeds that I can't think of right now. When I go to the store I will see them and I will write everything down for you. Also three other flours, I think one is rye and whole wheat but things can be omited if you don't like them or they don't agree with you.

3 teas yeast, half c warm water, 1 teas honey let rise for 10 minutes. Mix in another bowl: 3/4 ground flax seeds, 1 c rye flour, 1 c oats, 1 c ground wheat berries, 3 c einkorn flour, 1c wheat bran, 1/4 c wheat germ, 3 teas physlliuim powder, 2 ts sea salt, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, slivered almonds. mix all those real good. When the yeast is ready add 1 1/2 cups of warm water and 1/4 of molasses. Pour that over the flours, you may need to add a little water if you see some dry flour. I covered with plastic and then a towel and put in the oven with the light on to rise. I just checked, it hasn't budged ahahahahhah but we will wait.

This is a trial and error deal here lol. I had to take the dough out and added lots more water as the physllium husk sucked it all up lol. I also add more yeast, after the dough didn't rise after 2 hours lol. I was calling it the bread from hell. After I added more water and yeast, I just worked it and it took as much water as I would give it. It started to rise in an hour in a warm oven (oven light on). I made 4 small loaves and let those rise again but not too much as I want the bread to be dense.

The bread is good. I waited for it to cool and sliced and tasted. It is a heavy bread just like the Fitness bread. The fitness bread is sliced very thinly but it more or less has the same flavor like mine, only mine smells and tastes better. I am pleased with the recipe. The next time I will mix it differently. I like the fullness I get from eating just one slice. The slices are small as I made small loaves, but I have to slice a bit thicker. I need to go get a new electric knife as mine is as dull as.....I did put a pan of water under the loaves while they were baking and it gave the bread a crunchy crust and a chewy inside. I really like the bread.

Today I was able to slice the bread very thinly, it sure holds up and doesn't crumble at all.

Oh I can smell it from here!!! Looks delicious.

The store that was suppose to have it here doesn't so I will order some online. Thanks for sharing.
