I grew up on a farm in the 1960’s and 1970’s working on a farm planting, harvesting and storing wheat grain. Wheat was never referred to as berries. Wheat is a grain as defined by the 1828 Webster’s Dictionary, WHEAT, noun [G.] A plant of the genus Triticum, and the seed of the plant, which furnishes a white flour for bread, and next to rice, is the grain most generally used by the human race. Of this grain the varieties are numerous, as red wheat white wheat bald wheat bearded wheat winter wheat summer wheat etc.

WHAT A MEAL! 🥰

My grandaughter and I made this cake for my son-in-law's birthday. I sent it home with my daughter when she picked up the kids. He said he is not really a cake person. After he ate a piece, he announced that he would be eating the whole cake. 😂😅 Your tecipes never disappoint. Thank you!

Thank you for sharing. I have been trying to make FMF bread for about 2 months with just okay results. Tried your method yesterday, and it turned out perfect. My husband and I ate half the loaf.

Love this idea! I’ve been combing thru no knead cranberry walnut bread recipes trying to figure out how to convert one to FMF. My goal is to learn a new recipe every month. I like giving bread away for Christmas to my friends and several are single or just husband/wife. I’d like to make 4 different similar breads to quarter, wrap, and give as a bread sampler Christmas gift.

I have to thank you so much! I love how you present the information and your tips and tricks. I finally perfected your bread, which is enjoyed by all. I was exploring other recipes, and one recipe called for yudane (boiled water in flour 1:1). Do you have any experience with that? If so, can you explain? Thank you so much! Hugs

Made 2 batches of these a few days back and they are so good. Perfectly soft and delicious

I am really happy I found you because you really did help explain why my recipe for rye bread didn’t seem to come together as the recipe indicated. Undaunted I will try again.

Could you do some bread machine recipes ? Summer is here and I try not to use the oven much

Just received my Ankarsrum Mixer, I chose the matt green too!! loooove it, thanks for the review, greetings from DownUnder

Omgoodness…I have failed, quit and tried again. I’m more successful these days but am glad I kept trying! You are correct, sourdough has a mind of its own!!

too verbose

Thank you for reviewing the Bosch mixer. May I know what is the wattage on your model, please? Many thanks in advance.

Can I use butter instead of oil?

Anyone know where to buy honey granules? I don’t see it at Azure.

What the purpose of letting it sit 15 minutes before adding the yeast?

Have you made pasta with milled flour? I was gifted an Emeril Lagasse pasta maker. I don't know where to begin. I have an Ank.

Made these last week and making them today for 4th of July!!

Redmonds salt always mixes in dough for me.

I would love to see you do a sourdough sandwich bread in a bread loaf pan (vs a boule). Your videos are the best!!!!

Thank you! ❤

Just a note here she’s not speeding up the mixer she’s speeding up the video itself.

Ty!

I loved that video. So helpful!!!! It was so nice to see all the detail and the way the dough changed. Thank you!

Can I sub the butter with oil?

I’m not a fan of coconut flavor (like I used coconut flour when I was keto and it was terrible) so is there a coconut flavor to the piecrust using coconut oil?

Thank you so much Kara for taking all that time to explain and show all the steps with so much detail. It is so helpful to be able to see what the dough should look like. I was curious about total dough weight ended up with before dividing and shaping. I use the 9 x 5 USA pans. Thank you for giving that information as well. Imagine I would have to use more flour then are your measurements for 9x5 for one loaf or two as well ? Tnx again BTW I have been using Redmonds Real Salt for a while now. I have been using it since I started my journey learning baking n using FMF. I have never noticed any grit from the salt. I imagine if you just let it sit a little bit in the water to make sure it dissolved well you can avoid it, but I haven’t had to do that.

Kara, do you have any flour dust around your mill? I find it on nearby surfaces so I now cover the mill while grinding and checking now & again to turn my bowl. If you have any other suggestions I’d appreciate it! Making these buns tomorrow 🇺🇸

I have been watching this video and following along step by step. I am not happy with my Ank. I went 40 minutes and finally started getting a little bit of a windowpane. Not sure why it takes that long for me. Update: the bread turned out delicious but I am so tired of the Ank taking so long.

This is absolutely the best teaching video I have seen, and I’ve watched A LOT of FMF bread making videos. So glad your using the Ank in this video as I just got one. Love it!! You are a great teacher giving important details. Keep doing that. Thank you and Blessings 😇

Thank you for this video. I am having such a hard time with the Ankarsrum mixer. I am so ready to get rid of it. And I have only had it since April!

Basically, with the butter and the egg and the milk this is a brioche. Makes very nice French toast.

You are such a good teacher!

My family and I absolutely LOVE this recipe. I make it every week. Being fresh milled, if we haven’t eaten it all by day 6 I turn it into bread crumbs on day 7 because by day 8 it starts to get fuzzy 😝. My oven does beautifully at 400 degrees, but I tend to place the rack in one of the lower slots so that probably makes a difference. That was very thoughtful to do the math for the different size loaf pans for us. Now I need to reprint the recipe and toss my old one that has extra numbers scribbled all over it 😂. Might save me from mixing up my ingredient amounts again 🤣. Thank you!! Oh, and I almost forgot… I adore my Ank mixer. It does such a nice job. My poor old KitchenAid Commercial model really did not appreciate being worked so hard, but the Ank doesn’t even flinch.

Can't wait till try this❤

I will look for your sourdough recipe 🙏🏼

Very nice 👍

I don't have patience for that low of a speed kneading, LOL! I put mine on a little past 3:15 and it kneads in 8 minutes.

Great video! thank you, I have been using my ankarsrum for all of my baking. The roller is great! It is true though, that working with freshly milled flour takes some time to learn but it is well worth the wait!
