Love the variety pack of beans!

If it works for you do it your way.

That being said, a no-knead (with a couple of folds) is my default sandwich loaf:

It works fine with all sorts of variations:

3 hours or so on the countertop instead of overnight works great.

100% white flour, drop the water to 75%, but really do at least 20% whole wheat for the flavor.

50% whole wheat go with 80% H2O.

Any kind of whole grain works, oat meal (soak the flakes, or cook the steel cut), cooked rice, etc, or leave it out entirely I'm not the boss of you.

Add a little neutral oil and it will be a little softer and maybe keep better.

Same question, it does:change my decision, Im just curious.

Was actually my first post on another instance. I've made it since with 50/50 OJ and proper rosehip tea and it was excellent.

The Idea comes from Ken Forkish's "Evolutions in Bread"

The Earl Grey brings a nice depth and just a hint of citrus, kind of like bay leaf where you almost can't taste it but you know when it's not there.

I've made versions with herbal teas that worked really well, especially a dried cranberry-pecan one where I used orange juice and rosehip tea. I don't remember where the idea came from, but I've heard that yeast like vitamin c and that had a nice citrus flavor, I posted it somewhere if I can find a link I'll post it (I think I miss r/breaddit most of all)

It also works well with a 2 or 3 hour room temperature bulk ferment if that is more convenient.

I hope you like it as much as I do.

Ingredients: 70% Bread Flour. 30% Whole Wheat (emmer this time) flour.

20% chopped dates soaked in earl grey tea, drained well reserving liquid. 15% chopped nuts, lightly toasted. 2.5% NaCl. 0.7% instant yeast.

80% H2O, use the soaking liquid from the dates as half the water.

Method: Mix all the flours and water, cover, let rest/autolyze for 30 minutes.

Fold/pincer in the yeast and salt. Cover and Rest 10-15 minutes.

Fold in the dates and nuts. Cover Rest another 10-15 minutes, until the dough relaxes a bit.

Fold one more time, then cold bulk for 8+ hours.

Shape and room temperature proof 1 hour.

Put loaf into cold Dutch oven, put Dutch oven into COLD oven and set 230c

Cook in Dutch oven 30 minutes covered.

Uncover and turn oven down to 220c for 30 minutes.

It always needs five more minutes, even if it already had five more minutes

Let cool if you can.

En Guete!

Not that few.

I did manage to free the book, but it looked like such a nice pillow.

Cat would walk on guard rail.

We'll just round up.
