Homeless bread: benefits and harms

The theme “Benefits and harms of yeast-free bread” remains popular for more than one generation. The disadvantage and advantage is its structure.

Due to its density and rigidity, it perfectly affects the gastrointestinal tract and promotes the work of intestinal muscles.

The main positive point is the lack of yeast, and as a result, intestinal microflora is not harmed.

As for the shortcomings, the specific taste can be considered the most significant. People are accustomed to lush and fragrant yeast bread, its counterpart without yeast has a dense structure and therefore will be almost half as much. In terms of taste, yeast-free pastries are specific, but no less tasty than ordinary bread.

Rye yeast bread

 

Can be considered as an example of making rye bread. After all, he will need a special type of flour - rye. First, yeast-free yeast is prepared, only rye flour and preferably coarse flour is used. 1 liter of water is added to the sourdough, 1 liter of salt, salt to taste and 800 grams of flour. All knead until a homogeneous mass of viscous consistency.

Monastery Recipe

The monastic bread smells appetizing and is easy to prepare. The only caveat - the preparation of the test itself lasts 4 hours.

A special sourdough is also used.

  • water 800 ml;
  • whole grain flour 300 gr;
  • rye flour 700 gr;
  • salt 1 dessert spoon without top;
  • leaven;
  • seeds (sunflower, pumpkin, pre-peeled), raisins - a small handful.

Dissolve salt in warm water. If there is a wooden spoon - put 2 tablespoons, if tablespoons are used, then 4. It is very important that the water is a little warm. If the seeds were roasted, they must be cooled in advance.

Hands stir these products until smooth. After you can add flour. Before use, it must be sieved. This will not work with whole grains, and rye can be easily sieved in order to be saturated with air. Gently knead, crushing the lumps. At first it may seem that there is too much flour, but with prolonged kneading, the dough is well saturated. It is recommended to leave for a third of an hour under a towel - to insist.

We spread the dough on a board sprinkled with flour. It turns out heavy, thick. When, when kneading, it ceases to stick to the hands, you can form a gingerbread man, roll a little in flour, slightly beat off with your hands, tossing up. Sometimes the dough is beaten on the table, but there is a risk to cover everything with flour.

Put the finished ball in a bowl, cover with a towel, leave for 10 hours. You can put everything in the oven, not including it. During this time, the dough rises. Next, we lay it out in forms and go bake at 180 degrees per hour. After cooling, we get out of the forms, cover with a damp cloth.
