Cooking method

• If you see buns in the photo, and the name contains the word "bread", do not be surprised. Neither you nor I have confused anything. This is really bread. Such molding * of bread baked according to different recipes is accepted in France. The French call one of these breads "Petite". "Petit bread" ** ("Petit pain") means "little bread". It is not cut with a knife, but broken along a specially made groove. Very comfortably...
• I made changes to the recipe for "Petit Bread" long ago, adding oat flour and bran to the wheat. And instead of natural honey, I began to add to the dough fireweed or lime "honey", which I cooked during the blossoming of willow tea and linden. The bread has become much tastier, more aromatic and healthier.
• And recently I looked the film by Japanese director Yukiko Mishima "Bread for Joy"***. This film is about a couple who went out of Tokyo and opened a bakery cafe "Mani" by Lake Toya. Sun bakes bread and his wife Ri prepares food that complements her husband's baked goods perfectly. For each visitor, the cafe bakes its own, special bread and prepares a dish that is important for this visitor.
• In the film there is no famously twisted plot, no amazing special effects, no chic costumes. But the manner of shooting, where each frame is like a picture, is literally mesmerizing. For 2 hours I was immersed in an amazingly light atmosphere of love and joy.
• It's not a gratifying thing to retell the plot. But since one of the stories in the film has to do with the recipe, I'll do it. Dad and daughter live together. Without mom. She left them. The daughter misses her mother and the pumpkin soup that she made for her. And dad can’t come to terms with his wife’s departure. Dad and daughter moved away from each other, one by one experiencing the betrayal of a loved one. Sun and Ri learned their sad story and invited them to come to their cafe ...
• 
• Dad and daughter sit silently at the table in front of bowls of pumpkin soup.
• 
• And then something happens ... An unpretentious soup made with love by Rea melted the ice in the soul of dad and daughter.
• 
• And the bread that San baked just for them brought long-awaited joy to this little family.
• 
• But that was not the only thing that struck me. If you watch the movie, you will see that Sun has baked bread that looks like the French Petite Bread. This is not surprising, because the Japanese were taught to bake bread, including the French! And Sun suggested that the heroes of the film eat bread, dividing it in two. But my husband and I eat "Bread Petit" the same way as in the film - one for two! He breaks the bread in half and shares it with me, although nothing prevents us from eating each of the whole. What a coincidence!
• Of course, there is no bread recipe in the movie. But it seems to me that this is not important. Another thing is important - what feelings it evokes. Therefore, I offer you my version of the "Bread of Joy". I would be glad if you like it.
• The dough for him can be prepared in a bread maker on the "Dough" program (for me it lasts 2 hours 20 minutes). But for some reason it is for this bread that I knead the dough by hand.
• For the dough I mix both types of flour, salt, oat bran, yeast, egg, fireweed (lime) "honey".
• 
• I pour a little flour from the recipe into a cup (1 - 2 tbsp. L.) And add butter to it.
• 
• I make the oatmeal myself. On a coffee grinder, I grind the oat grains and sift the resulting coarse flour several times through a sieve. Of course, you can buy oat flour in the store, but since we grow oats ourselves, it is not difficult for me to prepare such flour.
• 
• I add warm water to the mixture and mix all the ingredients until a coarse bun. Cover with cling film and leave in a warm place for autolysis.
• 
• After 15 - 20 minutes, add the remaining flour, butter and knead until smooth and elastic.
• 
• Let the dough triple in volume in a warm place (about 1.5 hours).
• 
• While the dough is rising, I grind the oatmeal in a coffee grinder.
• 
• Lightly knead the finished dough and divide into 9 parts (about 74 - 76 g each)
• 
• I shape the balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper or a silicone mat.
• 
• I close the baking sheet with cling film and leave it in a warm place to increase its volume by 3 times (50-60 minutes).
• 
• With a wooden stick (handle from a wooden spoon) I press on the middle of each ball.
• 
• Sprinkle each ball with chopped oatmeal through a strainer.
• 
• I bake the bread in the oven until golden brown at a temperature of 180 * C (about 20 - 25 minutes).
• 
• Here is such a wonderful bread.
• 
• 
• Fluffy, delicious and aromatic!
• 
• The magic aroma appears already at the stage of kneading, proofing and baking and lasts until the last crumb is eaten.
• 
• 
• The benefits of this bread are indicated by its composition..
• Using oats in the form of flour and bran gives the right to be called "Bread of joy". Indeed, oats contain vitamins A and E, dietary fiber, a large amount of essential amino acids, enzymes, mineral salts, copper and silicon. By affecting metabolism, oats are able to lower blood sugar levels and promote the production of serotonin, sometimes conventionally called the "hormone of joy"
• A about the beneficial properties of fireweed and linden flowers has been known for a long time. They are one of the most medicinally rich plants and therefore are widely used in folk and official herbal medicine. The flowers of fireweed, as well as the leaves, contain iron, nickel, copper, manganese, titanium, molybdenum and boron, which are stimulators of hematopoiesis and increase the body's defenses. Fireweed is recommended for diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, diseases of the genitourinary system, inflammation of the prostate gland, peptic ulcer, sore throat, otitis media, migraine, insomnia, as well as diseases of the nervous system.
• I've been cooking for three years fermented fireweed tea and on my own body I felt the healing power of this plant. Moreover, since June last year, after I posted the recipe for Ivan tea on our website, many bakers were able to see this, who also began to prepare this unique tea.
• Linden flowers are also rich in substances necessary for the well-coordinated work of our body: flavonoids, essential oils, various sugars, glycosides, provitamins A, carotene and vitamin C, a large amount of macro- and microelements.
• Many housewives know that from linden flowers you can cook delicious lime "honey"... I was convinced of this by brewing such "honey" according to the prescription madam.stv1 .
• 
• I liked it so much that given my passionate love for fireweed, I cooked and fireweed "honey"sharing recipe with all the bakers. The result exceeded all expectations. Not only is the “honey” aromatic and tasty, but its color is unrealistically beautiful! I have one jar in the most prominent place. Of all the objects in the kitchen, the eye stops at her. The soul immediately becomes very warm and comfortable! What else do you need for joy?
• 
• Due to the butter and glucose in the "honey", the bread does not stale for a long time. If it is not immediately eaten, then it can be warmed up on the toaster on both sides. It will turn out the same as if it was just taken out of the oven.
• But the healthiest ingredient in this bread is love! Love that comes from within and lives in the heart. Whoever we are, whatever we do, the secret of success is to love what we do.Then any of our dishes and any bread will bring joy, happiness and health!

P.S.

[Ludmila]

Ludmila, thanks for such a hearty bread! Really with love and joy!

Luda, a photo where you break bread with three hands is a thing! I suspected for a long time that some people here have more hands than ordinary people, so they can do so much! I won't bake your bread. I won't. I am afraid that the doors will have to be widened ... I am throwing them in the country bookmarks again, I will pamper the boys in the summer.

Well done, Lyudochka! It's tasty, healthy and interesting!

what a great photo !! Hands breaking bread. Most Amazing Photo !!

a photo where you break bread with three hands - a thing! I suspected for a long time that some people here have more hands than ordinary people, so they can do so much!

Valerka , Veronica , Thank you, my darlings! Veronica, I have not 3 ... but 4 hands. I'm taking one! Just noticed, Veronica, with two it would be much more difficult ...

[Luda,]

Luda, huge thanks, nice to read the recipe prepared and written with such love. I took note of linden honey, although I had seen this recipe before, but now I will definitely cook it to add it to bread.

Elechka, thank you, dear! And the "honey" must be cooked. And not only from linden. You will soon have dandelions, so don't miss it! Last year I was literally one day late with them, although there are so many of them growing in my meadow! I will not miss this opportunity this year. By the way, we have a dandelion "honey" at our Bread Maker. And you can also make from mint. I didn't do it myself, but my neighbor tore my mint, then cooked it. Well, very tasty! This year, I will get to the mint. By the way, there is a mint recipe on the forum.

Luda, so it was meant that 4! Here, on the site, you will sit, and it will not grow back in order to do everything! And I will definitely make fireweed honey this season, only with fructose, but it is thinner, which means that you will need to add jellix. Maybe I'll swing at a linden tree (if the bees don't eat it during collection ...)!

Here, on the site, you will sit, and it will not grow back in order to do everything!

And don't tell me, Veronica! And where without it? Here, on the Bread Maker, there are so many tasty things that sometimes 4 hands are not enough.
Don't think about bees. When I collected linden flowers last year, there were bees on it .... I thought I wouldn’t leave alive. And nothing, it turned out very fragrant!
And last year I made Linochkino coniferous rosehip jam on agar. I went too far in one game, and in the second it turned out well. I don’t know anything about zhelfix, I haven’t tried it. But if you are used to working with him, then, of course, try with zhelfix.

Lyudochka is a very beautiful and fragrant bread! And also so gentle and delicate as you!

Irisha, I didn't recognize you right away! What an avatar! Spring ... Beauty!
Ira, thank you very much! You have found such kind words! I am very, very pleased!

Wonderful bread, and a wonderful story! And I will try to find and watch the film.

Ira, thank you very much for your attention to the recipe and such an assessment! I am very pleased to hear these words from you.

And the movie can be downloaded on torrent

[lappl1]

lappl1, so we have a mutual friendship. I also have a great pleasure to look at such recipes. I was especially touched that you and your husband were eating a bun in half. This is somehow very correct!

Irisha, it became even more pleasant!

[Lyudochka]

Lyudochka, again you have a masterpiece, congratulations! I bookmarked the recipe, I will implement it!
The history of bread is impressive, thank you!
I support Veronica, that you have more than two hands, it is understandable, two cannot manage so much.

[Marisha]

Marisha, thanks for stopping by the light! For the kind words addressed to me - special thanks! I will be very glad if you bake this bread!

Lyudochka, bread and history. Well, when do you have time for everything?

Olenka, yes, I have time ... As Veronica rightly noted - I have 4 hands - mine and my husband's. With him, everything is simple and easy.
Thank you, Olenka, for the praise! I am very pleased with your words!

Lyudochka, my soul, how lovely! So cordial. And about honey - it's just fantastic. Are there still those who "indulge in" this? I have honey from everything that blooms. I can't stop looking at the shades that plants give. For example, honey from chamomile flowers is almost black, but honey from maple seeds is mahogany. Honey from dandelions is amber, and from clover and pine cones and twigs - pink, but so different. And if you add liqueur to honey from honeysuckle flowers, you get a good cream for impregnating biscuits. You're smart for making these things. Probably, our culture and our traditions are based on them. Good luck to you. God bless you!

[Nana]

Nana, Ksyusha! How much you do "honey", it turns out. And I only started to get involved in this last year. I missed the dandelion - they somehow faded in a couple of days. Although I have a huge dandelion meadow right next to my house. And I didn't even hear about the rest of the honey! Thank you for sharing this information! Nothing will slip by me this year. I will do everything!
Ksyusha, you would have posted these recipes with us. We would have followed you. Although, I'll follow you anyway! Because I really like this honey!
Ksenia, thank you for your wish. God bless you too!

Lyudochka, thanks. Be sure to start doing. The main thing is to put the dandelions in the water right away so that they don't close. Do not miss the pine: cones up to 3 cm, and young twigs up to 7-8 cm. And then as it blooms. Very good from white, ONLY white acacia, from rosehip petals, jasmine, but unfortunately we have not jasmine, but chubuchnik. Nature gives us so much!
Forgive me, Lyudochka. I’m probably lazy and cowardly, because I’ll think that I need to upload photos, write on the site. And horror grips me. Maybe I'll make up my mind later. Now Easter is still ahead, I need to prepare a charity evening for sick children. In general, while "otmazatsya". I'll send you a link to OK by mail, I have recipes for honey there.

Oksana, how interesting it is to get to know people by talking to them about the recipe. Wow, what a noble mission you have - to please children. God bless you!

I’m probably lazy and cowardly, because I’ll think that I need to upload photos, write on the site. And horror grips me.

Ksyusha, come to our tea gazebo. We talk about everything there. And we share our recipes and links. An experience like yours is a pity to hide in my PM alone. So, there will be time, come in. We will be very glad to see you.
Thank you for everything . like this, we chatted for a couple of minutes, and I learned so much new for myself!

Oksanochka, come in, we will be very happy!

And I watched the movie!
very cute!!! ... I also wanted not to rush anywhere, ... always knead bread only with my hands ...

[Lyudochka,]

Lyudochka, Thank you for the sincere recipe and for the link to the film, now I'm uploading it - I'll take a look. I love these movies about the magic of cooking.
I really wanted to bake such bread, and the question immediately arose - is it possible to put oatmeal flakes by weight instead of flour in the dough (we now have a big ambush with food, I hope it is temporary). Or maybe grind them up? Although I used to add a couple of three tablespoons of cereal to bread and the bread turned out to be good.
Special thanks to you for the tea topic (for the topics).Since winter, sitting in the bushes, I've been reading this multivolume edition)) I'm waiting for the leaves, otherwise the handles itch, but there are no raw materials (

Anna in the Forest, Anechka, I am very glad that you have joined this miracle!
Svetlana, I am so glad that you too will watch this film. It's worth it!

Sveta, I would grind! But not very shallow! And you can do it completely with wheat flour. You can add whole grains. There is enough yeast - the dough rises well.

Thank you) for everything you teach and for your friendly attitude.
You can call me "you").

[Svetochka]

Svetochka, to your health! And you can speak to me.

[Lyudochka,]

I report: the film has been watched, the bread is baked)

The film is wonderful, it is cute. I love such details - a close-up of sweets, the interiors are cozy, the landscapes are soothing. Not a movie, but one big antidepressant pill.

Now on the topic) I put the dough: kneaded in HP, it seemed that there was not enough flour (slightly smeared on the walls). Then the dough stood, thought about its behavior, and after the second kneading, there was already a wonderful kolobok. It rose so that it stuck out into the lid. Divided into 8 pieces and put on a baking sheet - the dough is softest and squeaky. Not without a little sabotage on my part. Number of times: I put the bulki close to each other and at the end of the proofing they became close friends, and then I divided them and slightly ruined my face with it. Number two: I forgot about the peculiarities of my oven and slightly overexposed, the crust turned out a little darker.
But still they are tasty, the crumb is soft and airy.
And I forgot - I put the flax seeds inside and sprinkled them on top.
Lyudochka, thank you.
My second half, although he gave me a short lecture on the dangers of freshly baked bread, he crumpled a bun. And I also have butter and tea), albeit for the night.
