I just finished taking the 7 plus 2 bonus classes and am amazed at how much there is to learn and how they are so different. This is exciting! Looking forward to my wife and me making our next loaf with this informatiin at hand.

Thank you, it is nice to be here. My wife and I are new to this so we are looking forward to learning.

I am really enjoying baking with spelt flour. I was playing with the rye and oats added to this. The chocolate it called for was for color while baking it permeated the whole house and made me crave for chocolate and smelled heavenly. I added double the chocolate it called for more flavor and color. I also doubled the seeds and added pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, black and golden sesame seeds and caraway seeds. I love nuts and added that on top of it. 🌻 🎃 This was the first time I used my Cambro and it was fun monitoring how the bulk fermentation was going. Watch the dough and not the clock. I could see all the lovely bubbles from the LM sourdough fermenting. 😍🤎💖 I roasted my seeds in a frying pan and thank-you, Daddio @Henry Hunter for teaching me to do this in a small frying pan. I actually did it right this time round as I actually saw the oil in the pan. Doing this to the nuts enhanced the flavors and it was very delicious. The rye bread is very heavy and very filling and I really enjoyed it a lot. I loved the sourness that it produced. I would definitely bake this in the future again. 🍞 🍫❤️ The LM was a challenge as I had to add a tablespoon of water to the eye ball the correct consistency. I am so in love with this delicious and wonderful healthy rye bread. 💞💖🤎 @Dave Green My rye bread and I was being creative as the recipe did not call for caraway seeds. I added some in the inclusions. 🍞 🍫🌻

With being new here I would like to take the baker quiz. I am not sure where to find it. Help please. I know that I am most interested in practical, healthy uses for ancient grains.
