    List of Ingredients




    Chef Joey's Organic Multi-Grain Bread


    * 2 cups spelt flour
    * 1 cup whole wheat bread flour
    * 1 cup rye flour
    * 1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
    * 2 1/4 teaspoons yeast (I used Red Star)
    * 2 tablespoons olive oil
    * 1 3/4 cups water (105-110'F)
    * 2 tablespoons vegan margarine (melted)
    * caraway seed (to sprinkle on top)

    Recipe



    \
    1. 1 In a big bowl mix together the flours, sea salt and yeast.

    2. 2 I used a whisk to incorporate the dry ingredients together.

    3. 3 Make a well in the flour mixture and pour the water and oil into the well.

    4. 4 Using a wooden bread spoon mix the dry and wet ingredients together. This will be a bit sticky.

    5. 5 Flour your counter surface now, don't wait until your hands are sticky with dough.

    6. 6 With well floured hands turn the dough out onto the floured surface and knead it for 4-10 minutes adding a dusting of flour onto the counter surface as needed.

    7. 7 When the dough has an elastic consistency its ready to rise.

    8. 8 Prepare a bowl by rubbing it well with olive oil and place the bread dough into the bowl moving it around so the oil coats the dough.

    9. 9 Cover with a damp towel and set in a warm place for about 1-1 1/2 hours.

    10. 10 I live at 5,000 feet, so usually 1 hour is adequate at this altitude.

    11. 11 Once the dough has risen to about twice its size remove it onto a floured surface and punch it down to get the air bubbles all out.

    12. 12 Divide the dough into two equal rounds and place in two lightly oiled pans. I used 2 round cake pans.

    13. 13 Preheat your oven to 375°F.

    14. 14 Set the pans covered with the damp cloth in a warm place for about 20 minutes.

    15. 15 Brush the top of the loaves with a little vegan margarine and sprinkle with caraway seeds.

    16. 16 The above step is optional, but makes for a nice finish on the loaves.

    17. 17 Bake for 30-40 minutes.

    18. 18 For a crispy crust toss 1/2 cup water on the bottom coils of the oven.

    19. 19 Cool on wire racks and serve with vegan margarine
