How to make
First of all, you have to make the sourdough, because it has to rest for at least half an hour.
In a tea cup, crush the yeast, add a little water, a pinch of sugar and flour. It should turn into a thick mixture.
Set it aside and wait for the products to activate. The time can differ, but it takes about half an hour. It should activate well.
Once the sourdough is ready, we can start with the bread.
In a large bowl, place the two types of flour (mixed with a pinch of salt). Make a well and pour water, sugar, milk, olive oil and sourdough. Knead a soft dough.
Just before you stop kneading, add the nuts to the mix.
Transfer the finished dough into a greased bowl, wrap it and leave it to rise. This may take up to two hours.
It needs to double its volume. Once this is done, remove it from the bowl. Stretch it out two or three times. Transfer it into a clay pot lined with baking paper.
Make several cross-sections at the top with a knife. You can sprinkle with a little oatmeal. Leave it to rise a second time.
Bake the wholemeal bread in a non preheated oven at 370°F (190°C), until it's fully baked.
The Sourdough Wholemeal Bread is very successful!
