Bread, wheat varieties and other grains

Post by Bob »

Members who are interested in bread-making in Asturias, and in the various forms of wheat and other grains that have traditionally been used, may wish to explore the thread that begins at http://www.asturianus.org/forum/viewtop ... c&start=15

I intend to order some spelt flour and explore its properties in bread-making this summer. The link to order varietal flours (both whole grain and white spelt flour, as well as flours made from other grains) in the EEUU is http://www.kingarthurflour.com/shop/det ... 27&id=3453 for whole grain flour and http://www.kingarthurflour.com/shop/det ... 27&id=3452 for white flour. I have done business with this company, and find it both reputable and helpful.

I'll look forward to hearing about your experiments! I think spelt flour is available in some of the better grocery stores.

The second link doesn't work but think you meant this one

-------

Shop > Organic White Spelt Flour
Organic White Spelt Flour Organic White Spelt Flour
White spelt, whole spelt with the bran and germ removed, is a flour milled from an ancient form of Mediterranean wheat.

• 1 pound package
$3.95

the site looks pretty good. If you come up with something good and post it I'm likely to follow on your footsteps.

Thanks, Eli. I have fixed the links in the above post so they work OK now.

Now that our academic year is over, I have time to play. I just ordered the white spelt flour, and wil let everyone know how the bread turns out as soon as I have had a chance to bake some.
