Bready is a community for anything related to making homemade bread!
Bloomers, loafs, flatbreads, rye breads, wheat breads, sourdough breads, yeast breads - all fermented breads are welcome! Vienesse pastries like croissants are also welcome because technically they're breads too.
This is an English language only comminuty.
Rules:
- All posts must be bread or baking-related.
- No SPAM and advertising posts. If you want to promote your business - contact mods first to get an approval.
- No NSFW content.
- Try to share your recipe with your photos so everyone is able to recreate it.
- All recipes are public domain, recipe books are not. You can post any recipe invented by someone else, but you cannot post copyrighted work. That means no photos of book pages and screenshots of 3rd party web sites. Write the recipe down in text format instead.

Mix flours and water, autolyze (rest) covered at least 15 minutes.
With wet hands, fold in yeast and salt. Add all the oatmeal on top, but don't mix in yet. Rest 15-30 minutes.
Fold in the oat meal.
Bulk rise overnight in fridge, I gave it one more set of folds before bed.
Form into loaf, proof rise while oven preheats. Preheat oven 450f at least 30 minutes with cast iron skillet for steam.
Add c.500ml boiling water to the skillet when you put the loaf in the oven for steam.
Bake 25 minutes, then rotate loaf, remove skillet, and turn oven down to 425f.
Bake 25 minutes, it always needs 5 more minutes, usually even if it already had 5 more minutes.
Remove to grid. Let cool at least 1 hour.
En guete
Interesting method, I have always added salt to my water and yeast to my flour and mixed all at once.
Learned it from Ken Forkish "evolutions in bread"
Supposedly holding back the salt and yeast encourages the autolyze gluten development.

Interesting. I will give it a try when I next make bread.
