Toasted Malt Loaf Recipe Preparation:
Prepare the yeast: in a bowl dissolve the brewer's yeast in the water; add the flour and mix. Cover with cling film and let it rise for about 1 hour at room temperature (in winter it is better to put the bowl in the oven with the light on).
Meanwhile, pour the sifted 0 flour and malt flour into the bowl of the mixer; add 300 milliliters of water and mix with a wooden spoon until the flour has absorbed all the water. Cover with cling film and leave to rest for 1 hour.
Once the resting time has elapsed, break the yeast into the remaining 50 milliliters of water and mix.
Add it to the dough in the bowl of the stand mixer and start kneading with the hook. After about 5 minutes add the salt. Continue kneading for about 15 minutes, until the dough is smooth and well-strung.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes. Place it on a floured surface and make a series of circular folds; leave it to rise again, still covered, for another 30 minutes. Then make another series of circular folds.
Let it rise in a warm place until it doubles in volume. At this point, put the dough on the pastry board and shape it into a loaf.
Let rise until doubled. Sprinkle with durum wheat semolina, make cuts on the surface and bake at 250 degrees for 10 minutes. Lower the temperature to 200 degrees and bake another 10 minutes. Lower to 180 degrees and bake for another 30 minutes.
Turn off the oven and leave the bread inside for 10 minutes with the door open.
Bake and let cool on a rack! Delicious!
