3 Seed and Chickpea, Thanks Mike.

I found a recipe for a 3 seed and Chickpea loaf on Facebook. Its from Mike Batho at Breadstead, Yvonne and I are both fans of seeds in bread so I had to have a go. Its got Pumpkin Seeds, Sunflower seeds and Linseed as well as the Chickpeas. He put the recipe up at this link,

or this one,

And I followed the instructions, starting the soaker just before the F.A. Cup Final started.

The next morning I carried on, the dough mixed really well, I thought that there wasn't enough liquid but I was wrong, it made a superb dough. (Thinking about it, the chickpeas had water in them)

Before Proving

After one hour in a steam-filled oven.

I knocked back and shaped into tins,

while the oven warmed up.

An hour later they were ready to go, the oven was at 240°C and full of steam.

And after the oven phase,

next we moved on to the crumb, of course I had to wait a while for that.

Unfortunately it has commercial yeast and I really only want to cook with starter. Looks great though

Just a thought, it may be that you could use 100g of 100% starter for the soaker, I haven't tried it but its about the same as 120g flour and 80g water.
