Honey Wheat Bread
- 44 ounces wheat (hard white wheat 2 lbs 12 oz)
- 27 18 ounces water (1 lb 11.1 oz)
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 38 cup canola oil
- 38 cup honey
- 2 teaspoons instant yeast
- Weigh and mill wheat into flour.
- (Ktec or Nutrimill is a new technology that produces fine flour at low temperature retaining more nutrients.
- ).
- Warm water to luke warm or about 110 degrees F.
- Put water, salt, oil, and honey into mixer with dough hooks.
- (Bosch is a good brand.)
- Add 1/2 of flour into mixer.
- Add yeast on top of flour.
- (Never add yeast directly with salt.)
- Incorporate ingredients.
- With mixer on low speed add the rest of the flour a cup at a time.
- Set timer for 6 minutes and leave mixer running on low to develop the gluten.
- Prepare large bowl with a little bit of canola oil to coat.
- Let it coat your hands as well to handle the dough.
- Remove the dough from mixer directly into bowl.
- Turn dough to coat with the oil.
- Cover with plastic wrap.
- Let rise for 45 minutes to an hour.
- Roll dough out onto a clean surface lightly coated with oil and fold.
- Do this by pulling the edges of the dough up and over to the center of the dough.
- Do this a couple of times, put back in the bowl with the seams up, and cover with plastic wrap.
- Repeat last two steps two more time.
- Roll dough onto counter and divide into three loaves.
- Prepare each loaf one at a time.
- Fold into a round/cylinder and pinch seams.
- With seam side down roll into cylinders the length of the bread pans.
- If bread pans are non-stick, 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 is prefered, place cylinder directly into pan and cover with plastic wrap.
- (If not non-stick you can use 1 part liquid lecithin and 2 parts canola oil - brush this into the pan and the baked bread will fall right out.
- This will also change the flavor of the bread slightly.
- Make sure pans are thoroughly washed afterwards.
- ).
- Preheat oven at 350 degrees F.
- Let rise until dough domes up over sides.
- Place in oven and bake for 30 minutes or until the internal temperature exceeds 180 degrees F.
- Remove from oven and bread pans and place on cooling racks.
- Extra loaves can be stored in the freezer.
- Do not put in refrigerator as this will change the chemical nature of the bread and will make it dry and brittle.
