Kidney Bean Spelt Bread

Bread, Legumes, Spelt, Tangzhong Starter

A spelt bread using a water roux-tangzhong starter, that is to combine together one portion of bread flour and five portions of water by weight in a pot. Heat up the mixture to bring out the gelatinization of starch in flour. What makes the bread baked with this kind of starter difference is Starch Gelatinization, which helps to engage more water, namely more water will be absorbed, to provide a characteristic softer, more elastic-textured bread. Moreover, the bread will have long-lasting freshness.

180 g Spelt wholegrain flour
70 g Light brown sugar
8 g Sea salt
10 g Active dry yeast
160 g Water Roux - Tangzhong Starter

Turn out the dough and roll it out into a rectangle. Spread the drained kidney beans over and roll it up. Place it, seam side down, into a large loaf pan lined with parchment paper. Cover and let rise again until double in bulk, approx. 45 minutes.
