Description

Grain bread is a very tasty and healthy bakery product (see photo), made from whole cereal grains, not previously ground into flour. Most often, corn, rice, barley, and other cereals are used to prepare these baked goods. Manufacturers often supplement this product with pumpkin pieces and sunflower seeds.

Grain bread usually contains the following ingredients:

• grains (whole flour);
• water;
• yeast;
• milk;
• salt.

Wheat flour, honey, granulated sugar, oil (vegetable, butter) and even vegetables can also be used to produce this baked product.

In addition to white baked goods, there is also a rye (black) variety of grain bread. It is usually made from rye grains.

Whole grain bread with honey in a bread machine

Cooking bread according to this recipe gives it a subtle and appetizing honey aroma. Ingredients:

• whole grain flour – 2 tbsp;
• regular flour - 1 tbsp;
• dry active yeast - 1.5 tsp;
• warm water - a little more than 1 glass;
• melted butter – 2 tbsp. l.;
• ¼ tbsp. honey;
• ¾ tsp. salt.

Time – 95 minutes. Calorie content – ​​about 200–350 kcal.

According to the order specified in the instructions, the ingredients are placed in the bread maker. The usual order is liquid and then dry. The yeast is poured into a hole made in the center. All that remains is to set the cycle for whole grain bread. After the time specified by the program has passed, the finished bread is removed from the oven and cooled on a wire rack. Bread is good to eat with butter and honey.

To become a real professional in baking your own bread, you need to listen to the advice of the masters:

1. Sifting flour is recommended for good reason. It becomes lush, saturated with air bubbles. When pouring flour into a container, you can immediately sift it through a sieve.
2. The recipe must be strictly followed. If you give in to the temptation to add more tasty ingredients, you may end up with a broken bread consistency.
3. If during baking whole grain bread does not rise high, only a flat crust is formed, then this is normal for rye flour.
4. Instead of water, you can add beet juice or tea leaves to the flour. This will improve the taste and beautiful appearance of the baked goods.
5. It is better not to lift the lid after the process of approaching and baking the dough has begun. This causes the loaf to fall.
6. It is recommended to use vegetable oil for the bread machine;
7. If there is no “keep warm” mode, you need to very quickly remove the bread from the oven. Otherwise, the loaf will become soggy due to condensation.

Making bread at home is a more useful skill for the family. Personally prepared fragrant bread brings everyone in the household together.

Selection and storage

It is recommended to approach the choice of healthy grain bread responsibly, since today manufacturers very often do not adhere to the technology for preparing this product.

The first thing you should always pay attention to when purchasing such a product is its color. According to the current GOST, grain bread cannot be perfectly snow-white, since it is made from unrefined cereal grains. Remember: this product always has a dark shade. The opposite will only indicate that dyes and other food additives were used in the manufacture of baked goods to color the product.

In addition, study the composition of the bread. Keep in mind that the components that are used in larger quantities are listed first. The product must contain whole grain flour or whole grains. If these phrases are mentioned only on the packaging itself, and not in the list of ingredients, then it is highly not recommended to trust such a bread product.

The quality of grain bread can also be assessed by its appearance. Quality baked goods made from whole grains tend not to be light and airy. This product usually has a dense and clumped texture. This bread may even contain bran (pieces of the grain shell).

According to the food standard, the chemical composition of high-quality grain bread must contain at least 6 g of fiber.

As for storing this baked product, it is better to store it in a special bread bin with ventilation holes, separately from other bread varieties. This way the product can retain its taste and texture for seven days. If baked goods are stored in a regular plastic bag, their shelf life will not exceed two days. Some housewives use the freezer to store grain bread. At a temperature of minus eighteen, the product can be stored for up to twenty days.

How it's made, how it works, how it works

The most educational LiveJournal community

There is such a variety of bread on store shelves today that the buyer has to choose it not only by color - white or black, but also by composition: with or without additives, yeast-free or regular table bread. But the most unusual among them is the one made without a single gram of flour.

Krasnoyarskaya (formerly Laguna-M) has been making such bread for several years now, but even those who have already appreciated its taste do not always know about the benefits.

Today we will learn how this special product is produced.

First you need to prepare the grain. The quality of future bread largely depends on the raw materials, so wheat is purchased only from a trusted supplier.

Delicious recipe! Dietary oatmeal cookies with dried fruits

Grain is supplied to the enterprise by a farm from the Abansky district of the Krasnoyarsk Territory.

It is poured into a hulling machine to remove dust and debris.

Then the grain is blown with air to remove light impurities, washed thoroughly and filled with settled, clean water at room temperature. The grain swells and germinates within 24-30 hours.

Wheat grain in a “bath” with clean water.

The height of such a seedling is no more than two millimeters. It is this grain that contains the maximum number of useful substances.

Next, the sprouted grain is washed twice with clean water and sent to a disperser - a grinder similar to a large meat grinder. It carefully grinds the grain into a homogeneous mass. At the same time, the grain shell and germ are preserved - they contain useful dietary fiber, microelements and vitamins. In ordinary bread - made from flour - almost pure carbohydrates remain; everything useful remains “overboard” and goes into the bran.

Sprouted crushed grain exiting the disperser.

In the resulting mass, both the germ and the shell of the grain are visible.

Sprouted grains, salt, sugar, water and yeast are all you need for the dough.

Wander and arrive in time

Based on the resulting mass, the dough is kneaded, and the fermentation process takes place in it for 1-1.5 hours - natural fermentation. This is necessary to make the bread more porous and “airy”. One bowl (bowl for kneading dough) produces 135 loaves of bread.

The bowl with the fermented dough is overturned and laid out in molds. Then they are sent to a chamber where a constant temperature of 40 ºC is maintained with a humidity of 85%. There, the forms with the dough are kept for another 20-40 minutes, depending on the speed of its rise.

After the dough has risen in the chamber, it can be baked.

Freshly baked bread cools for at least 6 hours. Only after this can it be sent for cutting and packaging. If you rush, the bread will be soft and you won’t be able to cut it into even, neat slices. The largest loaf, weighing 600 g, is divided into approximately 12 parts.

Just 100 g of grain bread provides 25% of the body's daily need for dietary fiber (fiber). With regular consumption, Living Grain bread helps normalize weight and improve intestinal function. It is also useful for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases.

However, there are also contraindications. Due to the increased acidity, grain bread is not recommended for those who suffer from acute gastritis, pancreatitis and a number of gastric diseases.

How to bake grain bread at home?

To bake the best grain bread at home, we recommend considering the cooking tips below.

• The bread product will turn out much softer and more tender if it is made on a dairy basis, for example, milk, kefir, etc.
• To add some zest to your homemade grain bread, add a handful of dried sunflower seeds.
• To facilitate the baking process, use any kitchen appliances, for example, a food processor, bread maker, etc. This technique will quickly knead the dough to the required consistency, which will undoubtedly simplify cooking.

We suggest using the classic recipe for homemade grain bread below.

First of all, combine the following ingredients in a bread machine container: white and whole grain wheat flour (0.5 kg and 250 g, respectively), wheat bran (2 tbsp.), dried sunflower seeds (3 tbsp.), granulated sugar (1 tbsp), as well as salt and dry yeast (1 tsp each). Add the resulting mixture with a glass of milk and two tablespoons of vegetable oil. After this, set the required program for kneading the dough on the bread machine. When the mass is ready, leave it in the bowl of the device for sixty minutes to rise, and then put it on the work surface and form the bread product in the form of a slightly elongated roll. Next, place the workpiece in a baking dish and leave in a warm place for another hour. During this time the dough will double in size. After this, place the mixture in an oven preheated to two hundred and twenty degrees. Bake the product for twenty-five minutes, then remove from the oven, cool and remove from the mold.

Benefits and harms

Since the benefits of grain bread for human health are undeniable, many doctors often recommend consuming it during a course of treatment, as well as during a diet. Due to the fact that these baked goods are made from unrefined cereal seeds, all the vitamins and minerals present in the grain shell are preserved. When eating such unusual bread, the body is saturated with vitamins A, B, E, PP and minerals such as K, Na and P. This healthy bakery product is also rich in other microelements: Mo, Fe, I and Ca.

In addition, grain bread is rich in dietary fiber. It has been scientifically proven that these substances have a positive effect on the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract. Also, thanks to them, the state of the intestinal microflora is normalized, low-density lipoproteins and bile acids are removed. That is why, with regular use of this product, you can prevent such dangerous vascular disease as atherosclerosis. In addition, dietary fiber has the property of lowering blood sugar. This suggests that this type of baking is especially useful for diabetes.

The advantage of grain bread is that it can be eaten during a diet. The fiber it contains has a positive effect on digestion, and this, accordingly, helps to lose weight.

Due to its high carbohydrate content, this product is incredibly useful during pregnancy, as well as breastfeeding.

Important! Whole grain bread benefits a healthy stomach and intestines. If there are any diseases of these organs, then these baked goods are harmful to humans. Moreover, its harm can manifest itself not just in digestive upset, but also in exacerbation of diseases.

Harm of yeast bread.

Baker's yeast is used to speed up the process of making bread. Of course, no one thinks about the health of the consumer.

So what is yeast? These are unicellular fungi. When baking bread, most of these mushrooms do not die, since they are not afraid of high temperatures. When we eat yeast bread, we introduce these uninvited guests into our intestines, because our body is also unable to digest them. Why is that bad?

1) Yeast “steals” nutrients. Having settled in the human intestines, they get everything they need from human food. Therefore, a person who eats yeast bread may experience a lack of certain vitamins and microelements. Parasitism in its purest form.

2) Yeast disrupts the natural balance of intestinal microflora. Yeast is an artificially bred mushroom; it does not exist in nature. When these uninvited guests enter the intestines, they begin to inhibit beneficial microflora. The development of putrefactive flora begins. That is, yeast competes with the good inhabitants of our body, displaces beneficial bacteria and takes up the vacant space. As a result, not only the absorption of nutrients from food deteriorates, but also human health in general. After all, a healthy intestine is the basis of a strong immune system, and where there is yeast there is not health, but rot.

3) Yeast is harmful in itself. Judge for yourself - GOST 171-81 for “compressed baker’s yeast” provides for the use of:

- technical sulfuric acid or battery acid - microfertilizers for agriculture in the southern regions of the USSR - building lime, chlorine and bleach - liquid detergent "Progress"

It's creepy, isn't it? And this is just a small part of the heap of chemical crap that is used to produce yeast.

The harm of yeast bread is obvious. Of course, it all depends on the quantity and frequency of consumption of such bread. Therefore, you should definitely not abuse this.

What to do?

✅ Firstly, you can buy yeast-free bread. The demand for it is increasing, so every year there are more and more offers.

✅ Secondly, you can make yeast-free bread yourself. There is a carriage and a small cart on the Internet for recipes for making bread without yeast.

Personally, I make healthy bread without any recipes. I add water to whole grain flour, get a dough, and make flatbreads from it. I bake the flatbreads in the oven or grill (the time is selected individually, depending on the thickness of the flatbread). It turns out very tasty - you can eat this bread without anything, because it is really tasty. Real jam! Well, the realization that it is useful also warms the soul.

CONCLUSION

Healthy bread is bread made from whole grain flour without yeast. If it is not possible to eat such bread, then you can choose either bread without yeast or made from whole grain flour. But it’s still better when it’s 2 in 1! In general, friends, the healthiest thing is to eat live food. The bigger, the better!
