mosso_FX ♾️🧄️🌱<p>🍌🍌🍌 The Anarchist Banana Crust :neobread: 🍌🍌🍌</p><p>So I got a bunch of free 'nanas at an anarchist centre.<br>I like bread.<br>So I figured I make banana bread.<br>Had no idea though that what is commonly called "banana bread" is actually a kind of cake (or enriched quickbread at best).<br>Let's make actual bread with 'nanas anway! :neobread_uwu:</p><p>We use a technique called "Malzstück" (malt piece), to convert the starches in the banana into sugar. (Basically we artificially over-ripe the 'nanas!) The sugar will then be fermented in the main dough, which increases the flavour 😋 So we're using two fermentation techniques (enzymatic and microbial) to make the bananas even more delicious! :neofox_science:</p><p>The bread has a fine but light crumb, and a crusty crumb (I actually would prefer a soft crumb, but I can't do that with my equipment). I think it tastes especially good with a savoury plant-based spread (like hummus or peanut cream), to complement the nice banana flavour. :neofox_nom_bread:</p><p>0. Prepare the sourdough</p><p>- some starter (I use a wholegrain dinkel starter)<br>- 57g wholegrain dinkel<br>- 43g water<br>- Mix and let it rise for 8-12h :Blobhaj_Witch:</p><p>1. Go banana goo!</p><p>- 160g water<br>- 230g bananas<br>- 42g white (starchy!) dinkel flour<br>- 1 teaspoon enzymatic baking malt</p><p>- Put the ingredients in a saucepan<br>- Whisk the bananas (alternatively you can mash them)<br>- Stir while heating the mixture for ~3min until it starts bubbling a little bit. It shouldn't exceed 70℃<br>- Set the stove to low and let the enzymes do their work for a while, while stir sometimes. The enzymes will liquidise the mixture, so it won't become pudding.</p><p>2. Main dough</p><p>- The ripe starter<br>- The banana goo<br>- 55g water (*)<br>- 11g salt<br>- 50-60g sugar beet syrup (for even more malty taste)<br>- 240g flour (your favourite mixture of white to whole grain flour)</p><p>- Mix well<br>- Autolyse<br>- Depending on the wholegrain part, you'll need to experiment with the hydration. You can add part of the water (*) here<br>- Stretch and fold a few times<br>- Proceed with bulk fermentation, e.g. in the fridge over night<br>- Shape the dough and put it in the baking mould<br>- Proofing took several hours for me :neobread_peek:<br>- Bake at 230℃ :)<br>- You know, at this point you need to wait a bit to let the loaf cool down and crumb settle. You can *try* to resist cutting into the dough prematurely! :neofox_nom_bread:<br>- Serve with savoury plant-based spread at your local anarchist centre</p><p><a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/bananaBread" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bananaBread</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/breadPosting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>breadPosting</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/dinkel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dinkel</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/sourdough" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sourdough</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/malt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>malt</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/teamSauerteig" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>teamSauerteig</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/veganBaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>veganBaking</span></a></p>
