看到朋友Peiwen貼出她做的健康養生麵包, 得知食譜來自Healthy Bread in 5 Minutes a day一書, 我也上網訂了一本.  這本書中除了介紹食材, 工具, 技巧之外, 分為Whole Grain Breads, Breads with Hidden Fruits and Vegetables, Flatbreads and Pizza, Gluten-Free Bread and Pastries, Enriched Breads and Pastres from Healthy Ingredients.

此書最大賣點, 除了健康以外, 就是完全不用揉麵團, 而且事先把大份量的麵團做起來, 放在冰箱冷藏, 二週內用完即可, 這樣每天只需要一點點時間就有新鮮出爐的麵包可吃. 這對喜歡吃麵包, 想顧及健康, 又不想花很多時間的人來說, 簡直像美夢成真.

Potato-1
所以翻了翻, 看中Sweet Potato and Spelt Bread (我做成餐包), 把食材備齊後, 等不及試試.

Potato-2
4 cups spelt flour

2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour

1/4 cup vital wheat gluten flour

1 1/2 TB granulated yeast or 2 packets

1 TB Kosher salt

3 1/4 cups lukewarm water

1 large sweet potato, skin on, cleaned and coarsely shredded (3 1/2 cups, packed)

作法: (最好是前一天先把麵團做起來, 冷藏到隔夜再烤)

– Whisk together the flours, yeast, salt in a 5-quart bowl (using the stand mixer bowl).

Potato-5
– Add the water and sweet potato, and set it slow speed to mix.

– Cover (not airtight), and allow the dough to rest at room temperature until it rises and collapses (or flattens on top), about 2 hours.

– Refrigerate it with a lid or plastic wrap (not airtight) and use over the next 7 days. ( the flavor will be best if you wait for at least 24 hours of refrigeration)

– On Baking Day, dust the surface of the refrigerated dough with flour and cut off a 1-pound (grapefruit-size) piece. Dust the piece with more flour and quickly shape it into a ball by streching the surface of the dough around to the bottom on all four sides, rotating the ball a quarter-turn as you go.

Potato-7
– To form the buns, divide the ball into 8 (我是切六份) roughly equal portions (each about the size of a golf ball). Shape each one into a smooth ball.  Allow them to rest, loosely covered with plastic wrap, on a cookie shhet lined with parchment paper for 40 min.

– 30 min before baking time, preheat the oven to 450 F, with a baking stone place on the middle rack.  Place an empty metal broiler tray (or metal baking pan) on any other shelf that won't interfere with the rising buns.

– Just before baking, use a pastry brush to paint the top crusts with water.

– Slide the cookie sheet directly onto the hot stone.  Pour 1 cup of hot tap water into the broiler tray, and quickly close the oven door.  Bake for about 20 min, until ricjly browned and firm.

Potato-8
– Allow the buns to cool on a rack before eating.

不知道問題在哪 (唯一可以想到的是地瓜沒有真的乖乖量三杯半), 但是成品的長相不太像餐包(太扁了點), 而且一點都不好吃, 也不香, 如果本來吃起來就該這個味道, 那就不是我會喜歡的麵包了.  好失望喔!!!
