Bread Baking: Ancient Grains Recipe

1. 1

   Combine the flours, gluten, water, yeast, and sugar in the bowl of your stand mixed. Knead with the dough hook until you have an elastic dough. Add the salt and olive oil and continue kneading until both are fully incorporated.

   Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and sprinkle cornmeal on a baking sheet. Sprinkle some flour on your work surface and turn out the dough. Knead the dough briefly, then shape it into a ball. Place it, seam-side down, on the prepared baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside until doubled in size - about 40 minutes.

4. 4

   Slash the loaf as desired, then bake until nicely browned, about 35 minutes. Remove the loaf to a rack to cool completely before slicing.
