This is the ultimate freshly milled bakery-style Italian bread loaf. It’s an open bake, totally unsifted, and uses NO ADDITIVES! Best of all, it is BETTER than the bakery – because it’s better for you. Give this one a try!
This Italian bread dough is by far the best I’ve made, at over 120% hydration. Thanks to using yudane, which is a paste formed by mixing flour with boiling water, I get these really big holes reminiscent of refined flour bakery bread yet enjoy the read more…
I did not expect to love the freshly milled Italian Bread as much as I do. We are now out of hard wheat berries, so I’m making 100% spelt Italian bread today! Spelt is one of my all-time favorite grains because it’s a grain superhero! It works well in ANY of the grain categories, getting great results even though it counts as a soft grain.
I really hope you enjoy the distinct flavor change that comes from using fresh milled spelt grain instead of hard white wheat. You know it’s great because we are eating the remaining half of the loaf and it has barely cooled.
Absolutely! When I first perfected my rustic, crusty Italian bread with fresh milled flour, I didn’t think I could do it without the vwg (vital wheat gluten). I couldn’t have been more wrong! To make this SAME recipe without the vwg:
Absolutely! This recipe is higher hydration, so use the wire whisks and your mixer’s highest speed to mix the ingredients without the yeast. Once the dough climbs to the top of the whisks, it’s time to switch to your dough hook to finish by adding the yeast and kneading for a few minutes to incorporate (like, 2 minutes).
You bet! After the first rise, do your stretch and folds, and let the dough rise the second time IN THE FRIDGE! The cold will help the dough have better structure. When you take the dough out of the fridge, you may gently shape it some more before transferring to the oven. Silicone bread slings help so much in being gentle with your dough – along with parchment paper.
Perfectly crunchy crust with a bigger holed, chewy crumb that’s also soft. Great replacement for that bakery Italian loaf you know and love.
