Grain mill, grinding grain, and recipes for bread....
Posted on Saturday, February 17, 2007 at 11:51 - Post Comment
I am writing this post to answer some questions asked by my friend Pat in Tn.
As many of you know I just purchased a grain mill about 6 wks. ago. I ended up getting the Electric Family Grain Mill off of Ebay. It is great. I would recommend it to anyone. I had done a ton of research before purchasing it and kept seeing that it doesn't grind as fine as the whisper mill. Well, I usually run my grain through twice and it comes out pastry fine. It doesn't take that long to run it through twice. Maybe, 5 to 10 minutes. My children usually do it because they love running it.LOL I think it being electric rather than the hand mill probably makes a difference in the texture. I would like to eventually purchase the hand mill part so that if I ever need it I will have it. However, you can't beat the electric part of the grain mill.KWIM I would also like to purchase the vegetable slicer attatchment and the oat flaker. These are now added to my wish list.LOL
Since purchasing the grain mill, I have been experimenting with different grains... This is what our family likes...
I like the soft white wheat for...cookies, muffins, pancakes, etc. We like the Prarie Gold hard white for bread. I personally like the Hard Red for bread but my family prefers the Prarie Gold. I like the flavor of the Hard Red and I may over time try to incorporate it in my bread making. Maybe like 1/3 to 2/3's cup.
Here is the bread recipe I have been using.
Whole Wheat Bread
1 1/4 c. warm water
3 Tbsp. melted butter
2 Tbsp. dry milk
2 Tbsp. honey or evaporated cane juice crystals
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1 Tbsp. cream cheese (optional)
1 egg
3 c. prarie gold wheat
1 1/2 Tbsp. yeast
I put these ingredients in my bread machine in the order listed and turn it on the dough cycle. When finished I oil my bread pan and put it in the oven for 20-25 minutes. Or I make rolls.
Blessings,
Trixi

“I want to know one thing,” said John Wesley, “—the way to heaven: how to land safe on that happy shore. God himself has condescended to teach the way. He hath written it down in a book. O give me that book! At any price, give me the book of God! I have it: here is knowledge enough for me. Let me be a man of one book.”
