Spelt bread (Dinkelbrot)

Made mainly with spelt flour this bread is for anybody who wants to avoid wheat. The dough contains 10% rye flour for additional flavor. Since I don't have spelt sourdough there is a tiny amount of wheat in there though. Very tasty, but before you get started, be aware that this bread needs 2 resting periods of more than 12 hours.

Country Style Bread

 A white bread for BBQ season. I usually prefer bread with more rye but this wheat and spelt bread is actually really tasty. Like most wheat breads the process takes a little longer as it has to rest multiple times.

Make your own bread from scratch!

Here we go, starting a blog about how to make German-style bread. I'm not a baker and had no prior knowledge about making bread from scratch, but it turned out to be easier and the results tastier than expected. I'll post the recipies I tried out here, slightly adjusted to the ingredients available on the US market. But I'm a metric guy, so most recipies will mainly use the metric system, sorry.

I've already made quite a few breads, I'll add the recipes here as I go.

Go ahead, try them out.
