Italian Rye Bread

Most of my time last week, I spent building my new blog. Hopefully, it's going to support my new  business. I have registered my name (CaKing Agent) and got ABN; only visit from my council is left to give it final 'green light'. 

'Till then, here is an Italian recipe for rye bread; (reminds of my favourite 'Bauernbrot').

Ingredients:

3 cups rye flour

2 cups bread (white) flour

2 tsp yeast, instant (or 30 g fresh)

2 tsp salt

1 tsp sugar

1 1/4 cups water ( 300 ml)

2 tbs olive oil (or lard)

1 tbs fennel seeds

1 tsp caraway seeds

Method:

Activate yeast with some warm water, sugar and a little flour. Mix in all other ingredients (except seeds) and knead for 10 minutes. Add seeds and knead in.  Let it rest in warm spot (covered). All this can be done in a bread maker.

Punch the dough down, shape into a loaf and place onto a tin. Cover and let it rest for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 200*C. Place tin in hot oven, place 3-4 ice cubes on bottom and close the door. Bake for 5-10 minutes, then lower temperature to 180*C and bake for another 35+ minutes. Take out, wrap in a clean tea towel and let it cool.

Italijanski Ražani Kruh

Vecinu vremena prosle sedmice sam provela u izgradnji novog bloga. Ta nova web adresa ce, nadam se, potpomoci razvoju mog novog biznisa. Registovala sam novo ime (CaKing Agent - 'Kolačarski Agent'), dobila odredjeni biznis broj i samo je jos preostala posjeta iz moje lokalne opstine da bi dobila konacno 'zeleno svjetlo'.

Do tad', evo jednog Italijanskog recepta za razani hljeb ;(podsjeca na meni najdrazi 'Bauernbrot').

Potrebno:

3 solje razanog brasna

2 solje bijelog brasna

2 k instant kvasca (ili 30 gr svjezeg)

2 k soli

1 k secera

1 1/4 solje vode, mlake (300 ml)

2 K maslinovog ulja (ili masti)

1 K sjemena komoraca

1 k karavaj sjemenki (?) 

(Translator je pokazao kim, ali bih ipak rekla da je nesto drugo)

Nacin:

Aktivirajte kvasac sa malo brasna, secera i vode. Ubacite sve sastojke (osim sjemenki) u vecu posudu i umijesite. Na kraju dodajte i sjemenke, izradite jos malo i ostavite pokriveno na toplo mjesto oko 1 sat +.  Sve ovo mozete uciniti i pomocu pekaca. Premijesite hljeb, oblikujte veknu i postavite na pleh. Ostavite nadolaziti oko pola sata.

Ukljucite rernu na 200 *C. Postavite pleh u rernu, na dno bacite 3-4 kocke leda i zatvorite. Pecite 5-10 minuta , smanjite temperaturu na 180*C pa pecite jos 35+ minuta. Izvadite i zamotajte u cistu krpu da se prohladi.
