No knead easy wholemeal bread
Ever wanted to make a vogels style bread at home? Try this easy no knead, one rise wholemeal bread recipe. The DYC Malt vinegar gives it a lovely savoury flavour and the slight crunch from the bulgar wheat makes for a great texture. Recipe makes 2 loaves TIPS High grade or strong flour has more gluten so is best for bread-making. This loaf is moist and keeps well with the help of the vinegar added as an ingredient. Wholemeal flour is lower in gluten so this recipe produces a flatter loaf than those made solely with strong flour. Brushing the top of the loaf with DYC vinegar makes a crisper top crust. The hot water cupboard is usually a warm place to raise the dough.½ cup bulgur wheat
