Savory Bread and Split pea soup

Savory Bread:

3 1/2 C Fresh Milled Kamut flour
2 t Sea Salt
2 t Herbs De Provence

1 C Warm water
1 Tblsp Dry Active Yeast
2 Tblsp Raw Honey

1/4 C Olive Oil

I milled the Kamut (by hand), crushed the sea salt and added the herbs to the other dry ingredients in a ceramic bowl, allowed the yeast to proof in the warm water and honey then added them, slowly to the flour. As this flour was hand milled, and therefore somewhat coarse, the kneading process took quite a while, but I got there eventually.

I let the bread rise for 40 minutes, beat it down and added the olive oil, 15 minutes, beat it down, 5 minutes, then baked it for 25 in the oven at 375°

This, just like the pea soup was savory and delicious!

  1. Hope this doesn’t go through twice–my wireless is flaky tonight. What exactly is Kamut? a particular type of grain?
