With butter, chives, liverwurst or simply on its own - fresh bread is irresistible.
Especially when it's as light and fluffy as the
"eat-you-dumm" bread
.
The recipe for this delicious
mixed bread
with the unusual name has been around among bloggers and hobby bakers for a while.
It's easy and very quick to do.
All you have to do is let the dough rise for an hour and then bake it in the oven for an hour and then... pure enjoyment.
The only thing that takes a bit of getting used to is that you need different types of flour.

This is how you easily bake the eat-you-dumb bread
Crumble the yeast in some lukewarm water and add the sugar.
Stir well until the yeast has dissolved and leave the mixture covered for about 10 minutes until small bubbles have formed.
The yeast is now activated.
Put the different types of flour and salt in a bowl and mix well.
Make a well in it and pour in the
yeast water
and the remaining lukewarm water and knead for about five minutes to form an elastic dough.
Form the
dough into a ball
and let it rise in the bowl, covered, in a warm place for about an hour.
If the volume of the dough has increased significantly, the so-called folding begins.
To do this, flatten the dough a little, fold it once and flatten it again.
Do the whole thing about ten times on a floured work surface so that the dough doesn't stick to the surface.
Now form the yeast dough into a ball and place it on baking paper and thus in a pot that is suitable for the oven.
This works best with a round, cast-iron pot, but you can also use a bread baking tin or an unwatered Roman pot (advertising link).
Then dust the loaf with flour and cut a cross in it about half a centimeter deep.
Bake the
"eat-you-dumb" bread
with the lid closed for 50 minutes at 240 degrees top/bottom heat on the lowest shelf and then again for five minutes without the lid.
Do not preheat the oven.
After that, all you have to do is let the bread cool down a bit and it's ready to enjoy.
The
"eat-you-stupid" bread
succeeds even for baking beginners on the first try and will certainly be baked again and again afterwards.
Try it.
