Preparation

TOASTING: Toast the rye in a pan for a few minutes until it reaches a golden color. Let the flour cool completely before using it.

AUTOLYSIS RESTING: Let the dough rest for about 60 minutes, covered with plastic wrap, at 24°C (75.2°F).


DOUGH

KNEADING TIME: Knead for 5 minutes on low speed, gradually adding the remaining water (200 g) and salt. Then knead for another 5 minutes on medium speed, or until the dough is smooth and dry.

Amabile - soft wheat flour type 1
Amabile means "lovely" and describes our flour that has a certain bran and thus fibre content, but at the same time captivates with a very sweet note and a fine yellow hue. Its high protein content makes it the ideal flour for special baked goods, to which it gives a sweet distinctive taste. Suitable for breads, pizza, focaccia, as well as croissants and pastries.
