Delicious Spelt Bread

 

          I had never had much luck making bread and on the few occasions I have tried, the loaves were heavy, dense & totally inedible and usually  ended up being fed to the chooks, To add insult to injury, my bread was apparently so horrid that even my ever scrounging chooks refused to eat it. This inability to for me produce the most basic staple food had annoyed me for years and it was a recent trip to the local organic food store here in Wynyard that prompted another attempt. I noticed that they had sacks of different flour and most of them Tasmanian grown and milled from this region which immediately excited me. I chose a wholmeal spelt and some strong breadmaking flour.   I also got some black sesame seeds, sunflower seeds and whole buckwheat.
