A seemingly unassuming lump of corroded bronze has confounded investigators for more than a century, ever since it proved to contain precision gearwheels that simply should not have existed in the ancient Greek world. A new study, using cutting-edge techniques, has now revealed what this machine could do, and how it did it, as Tony Freeth explains.

This hearty seven-grain sourdough bread is packed with flavor and texture from a custom blend of ancient and heirloom graievenns.
The gentle, sweet wheat flavor and slight nutty undertone of whole grain einkorn bread make it stand out from any other bread. Along with its unique taste, this delicious bread is also packed full of nutrients.We have two variations of this bread. You can make 100% einkorn bread which is denser than traditional bread but has an amazing flavor. Or, you can blend in some bread flour which will give the bread a light, soft texture while retaining a great deal of the einkorn flavor. We love both versions. This recipe uses a smaller amount of yeast than traditional bread recipes in order to slow down the proof time and allow more flavor to develop. If you want to speed up the proof time, see the notes.

Khorasan wheat or Oriental wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. turanicum also called Triticum turanicum), commercially known as kamut, is a tetraploid wheat species. It is an ancient grain type; Khorasan refers to a historical region in modern-day Iran in the northeast and parts of Central Asia including modern-day Afghanistan. This grain is twice the size of modern-day wheat and is known for its rich, nutty flavor. One of the biggest misconceptions about Khorasan wheat is that the name “Kamut” refers to the type of wheat, while in fact, Kamut® is the trademark name of a quality organic, heirloom grain, Khorasan wheat. One thing we love is that Kamut® wheat is 1/3 longer than regular wheat and high protein. It is an ancient grain. Under the Organic Grains brand, consumers know they can trust that the Kamut® wheat we carry will always be grown certified organic, will always be non-GMO, and will never be altered or modified. We know that Kamut® wheat must be grown organically, have a protein range of 12-18%, be 99% free of contamination varieties of modern wheat and 98% free of all signs of disease to be part of what we offer here on our site. Even though this wheat variety contains gluten, it has been found to be more easily digested by people with slight allergic tendencies to modern wheat. It is excellent for making pasta and bread because of that protein! So we use it for bread on a regular basis. It's remarkably awesome! We also love how it cooks up to be this chewy almost meaty texture. We love to use it whole in soups and at breakfast. Today we're using it in a no-knead bread that is loaded with flavor and remarkably easy to make. No-Knead Kamut® Wheat Multi-Grain Bread Yield: 2 loaves Kamut®bflour|5 cups whole grain flax seed or teff |1/2 cup cooked quinoa |1/2 cup salt |2 tsp lukewarm water|3 cups active dry yeast |1 tsp Directions: Combine all ingredients in a large 1 gallon bowl, and mix by hand until combined, about 2 minutes. Cover tightly with plastic wrap or a lid and allow to sit at room temperature overnight about 8 hours. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured countertop. Cut it in half and form each part gently into a ball. Roll dough into a rectangle and fold into thirds. Roll, pinch, and form into a loaf. Place in greased loaf pan and raise one hour, cover them with a loose gallon size bag. Preheat oven to 425°. When oven is hot and only then, place loaves in the oven. If all has gone well, the loaves will arch over the top of the pan, touching the sides all the way up! The dough feels spongy but not soggy. Place in hot oven. After 15 minutes, reduce heat to 325 °degrees for 30-35 minutes, until internal temperature is over 175°. For additional flavor, top loaves with fennel seed and flavor infused oils before baking.

For this recipe I used the Artisan Free Form No-Knead Bread recipe as a starting point. This will yield 4 loaves. 2 3/4 c lukewarm water 1 1/2 Tbs yeast (1 1/2 pkgs) 1 1/2 Tbs kosher or sea salt 1 tsp sugar 1 cup quinoa, divided 1/2 c boiling water 5 cups all-purpose flower 1/2 c oats 1/4 c ground flaxseed (optional) Start by blooming the yeast in lukewarm (body temp) water in a large mixing bowl. While the yeast is blooming, rinse and drain the quinoa (this step can be completed the night before). Next, take 1/2 cup of quinoa and put it in a bowl with 1/2 cup of boiling water. Let this steep for at least 10 minutes. Once the yeast has bloomed, add the salt and sugar to the water and stir. Then add the oats, flaxseed, dry quinoa, and the steeped quinoa including any remaining water. Now mix in the flour by gently scooping it up and leveling (don't sift) one cup at a time with the mixer with dough attachment on low. Don't knead! This yields a wet dough loose enough to conform to the container. My daughter loves to help me, and she did a great job of scooping and pouring the pre-measured ingredients. Helping in the kitchen is always a fun activity for kids. my little helper The mixed dough should be wet like this Cover the dough loosely with a tea towel, or plastic wrap spritzed with non-stick cooking spray. Let the dough rise at room temperature until it starts to collapse. If your house is a little on the chilly side, like ours is in the winter, turn your oven on low for 5-10 minutes. Turn the oven off and place the bowl in the oven with the door propped open. Once the dough has finished rising, divide into 4 equal portions (about 1 pound each) and place in the refrigerator in an airtight container. The dough is best if refrigerated for at least 3 hours before baking, but overnight is preferred. Generally, I will place the entire container in the fridge for a few hours before portioning because I find the chilled dough a little easier to divide. You can store the refrigerated dough for up to 2 weeks, or freeze for later use. When you are ready to bake, you can either bake the dough on a baking stone or you can bake in an oven-proof glass bowl. Liberally sprinkle a pizza peel with cornmeal, or oil & flour the glass baking bowl to prevent sticking. Take the portion of the dough you wish to use out of the fridge, and if you want to add any flavorings this is the time. We often mix in oregano, roasted garlic, and shredded cheese, or make a sweeter dough with brown sugar, raisins, and a sprinkle of oats on top. I mix in the flavorings while the dough is still in the refrigerated container. After mixing in any additions, gently stretch the surface of the dough around the bottom on four "sides", rotating a quarter turn, until the bottom is a collection of four bunched ends. The bottom of the loaf will flatten during resting and baking. Place this dough ball in your oiled & floured oven-proof glass bowl or on a cornmeal dusted pizza peel to rest uncovered for 40 min. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees 20 minutes before baking with a baking stone or sheet pan on the middle rack. Place an empty broiler tray for holding water on another shelf. Pour a cup of hot water into the broiler tray just before baking. After 40 minutes of resting, dust the top of the loaf with flour and slash a 1-inch-deep cross, scallop or tick-tack-toe patten into the top. Place the glass baking dish on the sheet pan, or slide the dough from the pizza peel onto the baking stone, and bake for about 30 min at 425F, or until the crust is browned and firm to the touch. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing. We love to serve the bread dipped in olive oil and balsamic vinegar, with a little butter, some honey, or just eat it plain. The crusty, hearty bread is great in the winter and goes perfectly with soup, chili, and spaghetti. Linking at:
