Susan from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wildyeastblog.com\">Wild Yeast<\/a> baked it for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kochtopf.me\/bbd-11-one-year-anniversary-bread-with-sprouts-roundup\">Bread Baking Day<\/a> with the theme \u201cBread with Sprouts\u201d. A long, long time ago\u2026 I can still remember\u2026<\/p>\n<p>But it needed a second encounter to make me thinking about it. This second time I tasted a bread from sprouted spelt on a bread market a year ago. And this time I was hooked. But as sprouting is time consuming I took some time to start this project. But the Easter holidays were perfect for a new adventure!<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>A important point when baking a bread with sprouted grain is controlling the enzyme activity. In this <a href=\"http:\/\/orgprints.org\/18231\/1\/ble_fibl_leitfaden_essenerbrot.pdf\">Brochure<\/a> (published from the ministry of agriculture in 2008 ) they give the advice to keep the temperature at 15\u00b0C or below and to keep the layer of sprouted grain at 15 cm. To keep the temperature at 15\u00b0C is hart in a normal kitchen and so I decided to place the sprouts in the vegetable drawer in my fridge. Here the temperature lies about 11-12\u00b0C . At this temperature it took about 4 \u20135 days for my sprouts to grow. The second part of controlling\u00a0 enzyme activity is using sourdough. Just like when baking with rye flour the low pH of the sourdough slows down or even stops the enzyms from working.\u00a0 When keeping these things in mind, baking with sprouts is a simple thing and needs just sprouts (processed with a food grinder), sourdough and salt to bake a delicious and aromatic bread.<\/p>\n<h1><u>Sprouts<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hefe-und-mehr.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Keimlinge71.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background-image: none; float: right; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px; border-width: 0px;\" title=\"Keimlinge7[1]\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hefe-und-mehr.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Keimlinge71_thumb.jpg\" alt=\"Keimlinge7[1]\" width=\"200\" height=\"267\" align=\"right\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/u><\/h1>\n<ul>\n<li>300g Spelt<\/li>\n<li>cold water (15\u00b0C)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Soak the spelt over night in water.<\/p>\n<p>The next mooring pour of the water and place the spelt in a glass or bowl.

Let the sprouts grow until they are half as long as the seed grain.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h1><u>Sprouted Spelt Bread<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background-image: none; float: right; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; margin: 5px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px; border-width: 0px;\" title=\"Dinkel-Keimlingsbrot (2)\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hefe-und-mehr.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Dinkel-Keimlingsbrot-2.jpg\" alt=\"Dinkel-Keimlingsbrot (2)\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" align=\"right\" border=\"0\" \/><\/u><\/h1>\n<p>Sourdough<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>150g whole spelt flour<\/li>\n<li>150g Water<\/li>\n<li>15g sourdough (very active)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Dough<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Sprouts of 300g Spelt(see above)<\/li>\n<li>Sourdough<\/li>\n<li>9g Salt<\/li>\n<li>10-20g water if needed<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For sprinkling<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>spelt bran<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For the sourdough, mix all ingredients and ferment for 14-16 hours at 25\u00b0C.<\/p>\n<p>The next morning process the sprouts with the food grinder.
