The texture was just so different to supermarket flour - almost equal to the hand ground flour that you can get from the local Overbury estate (they have an antique hand flour mill in the kitchen). And I must say it makes one of tastiest loaves. Good spread with dulce de leche too......
Due to the low gluten content I played on the safe side and added a teaspoon of baking powder too, otherwise just used the normal bread recipe:
750g flour
450 ml liquid - mostly hand-hot water, and a little olive oil
1 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
1 pkt (7g) instant yeast
(1tsp baking powder for the spelt flour loaf; maybe try adding molasses too next time.)
How to knead bread? I was taught before I could talk - it often sounds odd when you meet people who have never done it before. There's a great youtube vid below to help you along.
There's some other bread shapes linked below and more pics on our facebook bread album (including the white wine foccacia.
