What a Bread and Food Week That Was

Lucy was making up for lost time making two different breads. One a 10% whole 5 grain yeast Naan and the other a 10% whole Kamut pizza dough. The 5 grains for the Naan were red wheat, spelt, Kamut, rye and oat. Both were made with and 10% pre-fermented whole grain flour poolish at 100% hydration and both dough flours were LaFama AP. Overall hydration for both was 72%

I was thinking about an old Fresh Lofian that I learned a lot from
gogli70 and all the great breads he posted. he worked at bakery and baked for the Farmer's Market too. His blog is worth reading in my book.
Here is just one of his great breads 93% whole grain ciabatta at 89% hydration. From 2013

Bereit sind, arbeiten Sie hart und Opfern Sie viel Auswuchs Sauerteigbrot
Yes, this is a remake of a bread that we really liked 3 years ago, Just click on the title……the ever popular - Willing to work hard and sacrifice much, sprouted, sourdough bread. We were taken back when Lucy learned that a robot companion named Cimon (sounds like the real Simon) was blasted off the earth to the Space Station.
For Franbaker, Fran is on 100% whole grain quest much like Lucy
is and has a hard time finding 100% whole grain recipes. SOI though we should post our favorites from TFL that we have made over the years right here for her. Lucy thought we would start it off with a more difficult one but one that tastes fantastic.
5 7 5 Haiku Bread Poem Challenge
Lucy loves Haiku and between bakes she thinks up some good ones. Between bakes I thought we should all give it a try and see if our bread improves.
Just add them on here as comments. Here is Lucy's first shot and then mine but there will be more as time allows.
Don Baggs makes baguettes
Out of any recipe
Turns dough into sticks
And mine
Pumpernickel airs
Wafting through the bakery
So few friends remain

.Lucy and I have been working hard on her app that makes food invisible and has no smell so that fat people like me can lose some weight because we won’t be able to find the food we would normally consume. Here is a picture of a delicious Chinese 9 course meal…..can’t see it can you? Lucy rests her case but not so fast.
Enough of the White Bread Already

That Lucy is a pistol. She has been working very hard for weeks on her app to replace every job people do, just like Silicon Valley is doing, thinking they were going to beat her to it and the next thing you know she stopped working on that, thank goodness, and started working on her new even more important app.

Another White Sourdough Blister Bomb

This time it wasn’t just Kamut but 6 different grains that added up to 10% of the grains in this bread but there were other differences ….nearly too many to mention. Well not too many. The 6 grains were rye, spelt, oat, red and white wheat plus Kamut.
