chine Baker’s Hint: Homegrown Grain Sprouts)
SPROUTED WHEAT BERRY BREAD
Whole-grain bread enthusiasts always ask for this recipe. In the 1960s, when I first
began baking bread, it was commonplace to find a jar of some type of sprouts on the
kitchen counter when I would visit friends. You can buy sprouts in the produce section
of your supermarket or health food store, or you can grow your own, which takes
about three days. Note that the wheat berries are added halfway through the Knead 2
part of the cycle here, to prevent them from becoming overprocessed.
Place the ingredients, except the wheat berries, in the pan according to the order in
the manufacturer’s instructions. Set crust on dark and program for the Basic or
Whole Wheat cycle; press Start. (This recipe is not suitable for use with the Delay
Timer.) Set a kitchen timer for 12 minutes. When the timer rings, open the lid and
sprinkle in the wheat berries around the sides of the dough ball while the machine
is running, being careful to avoid the rotating blade. Close the lid. The wheat
berries will be slowly incorporated.
When the baking cycle ends, immediately remove the bread from the pan and place it
on a rack. Let cool to room temperature before slicing.
