Ingredients

• 170g blackberries
• 2 cinnamon sticks
• ¼ cup water
• ⅛ cup fresh orange juice
• 2 strips of orange peel
• 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
• 8g active dry yeast
• ¼ cup plus 1 teaspoon honey
• ⅔ cup warm water
• ⅓ cup olive oil plus a bit to coat a bowl
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 4 cups (500g) all purpose flour
• Eggwash

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, whisk a teaspoon honey and yeast into the warm water. Wait a few minutes until the yeast is activated and the mixture becomes foamy.
2. Add the remaining honey, oil, eggs and salt to the yeast mixture and whisk until incorporated.
3. Add flour slowly, incorporating as you go. You do not want to add too much flour, you just want a shaggy dough to form. Use the last bit of flour to flour your counter top to ensure that the dough does not stick while you kneed. I like to use the last bit of flour to flour my counter instead of adding more to ensure that I am using the most minimal amount of flour possible.
4. Kneed the dough for 5-10 minutes until a smooth, elastic ball of dough forms. If the dough gets too sticky as you are kneeding it, a just enough flour to your hands and board to make the dough soft.
5. In a large bowl, coated barely with oil, place your ball of dough and cover with cling wrap for 45 minutes, or until the dough has doubled in size.
   1.While the dough is rising, make your blackberry filling, so that it has time to cool down before you fill the bread.
6. Put all ingredients in a small saucepan. Simmer for 10-15 minutes. The mixture does not have to be thick and jammy, but you should be able to trace a line with a wooden spoon through the mixture and have it hold for a second.
7. Cool down mixture to before filling the bread. You can speed this up by putting it in the freezer for 10 minutes.
8. Once the dough has doubled in sized, remove from bowl and cut in two equal pieces. Using a rolling pin, roll out one of the pieces in a large rectangle shape. It doesn’t have to be perfect. Spread half of the blackberry filling in the middle of the rectangle, leaving two inches of space around so that it doesn’t squish out everywhere. Roll your rectangle into a a long rope, with the filling inside. Stretch your rope as long as you can without the dough ripping (mine was about 2.5-3 feet long). Set aside and repeat with the second half of dough.
9. Cut both of your ropes of dough in two so that you have four equal pieces of dough.
10. Take two of the ropes and lay them next to each other. Take the third rope and weave it between the other two (lay it on top of the rope on the left and under the rope on the right). Take the last rope and do the same, but in the opposite way (lay it under the rope on the left and under the one on the right).
11. You will now have eight rope-ends of dough. There will be four ends that come out from under the plus sign in the middle (the right hand rope-end of each pair), take this end and bring it over the end to the right of it. Repeat for all four rope-ends. Now take the rope end that you just went over (originally the left of the pairs) and bring it over the rope directly to the left of it. Repeat until you have run out of dough.
12. Once you run out of dough, tuck the ends under your bread. Transfer to a parchment lined baking sheet. Apply an egg wash and let rise for another hour. About 45 minutes into the rise, preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Add a final eggwash before placing your bread in the oven for 40-45 minutes.
13. After 15-20 minutes of baking, you may want to add aluminum foil to the top of the bread if it is getting dark too fast (I always have to do this, otherwise my bread burns). Once it is cooked (you will know when the bread sounds hollow when you knock on the bottom; also, you can press on the top and if it is too mushy it probably needs some extra cooking).
14. Remove your bread from the oven and let cool completely on a cooling rack before cutting into it.

La pâte est très bonne.
La garniture est très bonne mangée seule mais elle se perd une fois dans la pâte.
En plus, on sent toutes les graines des fruits ce qui n'est pas très agréable comme texture.
Je trouve que c'est beaucoup de travail pour ce que c'est.
Je ne pense pas en refaire.

C'est bon mais ce n'est pas mon préféré. Par contre, ça a fait fureur à la maison. Je sens que je vais devoir en refaire :).

Ce n'est pas un mauvais pain mais je ne suis pas satisfait de la texture de la croute. J'ai déjà fait certains pains utilisant une technique similaire qui avaient un meilleur résultat. Je pense que l'utilisation du yaourt est à l'origine de ce problème de croute.

Je vais donc mettre de coté cette recette pour me concentrer sur d'autres qui ont un résultat plus intéressant.

Ingredients

• 3 cups (405 grams) bread flour
• 1 ½ tsp (8 grams) salt
• ¼ tsp instant dry yeast (if fermenting for 18 hours), or ¾ tsp instant dry yeast (if fermenting for 6 hours)
• 1 ½ cup + 2 tbsp (385 grams) plain unsweetened yogurt containing active cultures

Instructions

1. In a stand-mixer with dough-hook, or in a large bowl by hands, mix bread flour, instant dry yeast, salt and plain yogurt on medium-low speed for 2 min until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry and has difficulty coming together, add 1 tbsp more plain yogurt. If you'd like, continue to knead the dough on medium-low speed, or with your hands, for a few more minutes until springy. The dough should be very sticky, but able to retain shapes.
2. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let ferment at room-temperature for 18 hours (NO MORE than 20 hours or the yogurt may spoil and become bitter!), or 6 hours depending on your schedule (note that the amount of yeast varies). The dough should almost doubled when finished.
3. After fermentation, dust the counter with flour then transfer the dough on top. Use just enough flour to prevent the dough from sticking, fold the dough gently (without crushing all the air bubbles inside) over itself like folding a letter. Turn 90 degrees and fold again. Then shape the dough into a ball-shape. Transfer to a piece of floured parchment paper, then cover a large bowl on top and let proof again for 1 ~ 2 hours. The dough is ready when it almost double in size again, and should not spring back when you press it with a finger.
4. 45 minutes before the dough's ready, preheat the oven on 450F/225C with a large dutch oven, or a heavy-bottom pot (both should come with lid) inside. To bake the bread, lift the parchment paper to transfer the dough into the preheated pot, cover the lid and bake for 30 min. Then remove the lid, and bake until the crust is golden browned.
5. Let cool on a rack for 20 min.

Ça faisait longtemps que je devais essayer ça.

J'en suis un peu déçu car c'est assez sec. Le goût est très bon, mais soit je perds la main, soit il manque quelque chose.

C'est intéressant mais pas exceptionnel.
Je n'en referais pas.

Ce pain est intéressant. Le goût de la canelle est prononcé et cache celui de la farine de pois chiche.
La texture est un peu lourde à cause de cette même farine mais la mie est tout de même tendre.

Après passage au congélateur, la mie devient granuleuse.

C'est bon, c'est facile mais je ne trouve pas cette recette exceptionnelle. Je ne pense pas la refaire.
Je lui préfère d'autres recettes.

Ingrédients

• 300 g de farine
• 3 œufs
• 200 g de beurre mou, pas fondu
• ½ cube de levure de boulanger (délayée dans un peu d'eau tiède avec une noisette de beurre)
• 1 càs de sucre
• 1 pincée de sel

Instructions

1. Tout mélanger (facile, surtout si on a un robot)
2. Couvrir et mettre au réfrigérateur pour la nuit
3. le lendemain, l'étaler comme une pâte à tarte puis la rouler comme un biscuit roulé. Découper des grandes tranches et les disposer debout dans un moule (à soufflé ou à kouglof par exemple).
4. faire bouillir une casserole d'eau. Eteindre le feu. Poser une volette (grille) sur la casserole, et poser le moule sur la volette. Laisser lever.
5. quand elle est bien gonflée, enfourner la brioche (départ four froid) et cuire pendant 25 minutes à 210°C (mettre du papier alu quand vous trouvez la brioche suffisamment dorée).

Le pain est intéressant mais il ne goute pas du tout le wasabi. Par contre, lors de la réalisation, l'odeur est intense.
Pratique pour finir de la pâte de wasabi.
