Ingredients

---Pre-Ferment---

70g unfed whole-wheat sourdough starter

1/2 cup warm water

165g spelt flour

---Dough---

200g all-purpose flour

80g Kamut flour

2 tsp salt

All pre-ferment (above)

1 tbsp olive oil

2 tsp honey

3/4 tsp dry active yeast

1/2 cup warm water

Directions

Combine pre-ferment ingredients until well-hydrated. Cover and let stand at room temperature two hours - overnight.

For the dough, whisk together the dry ingredients (except the yeast) in a small bowl.

In a separate large bowl, mix pre-ferment, oil, honey, yeast and water. Let stand 5 minutes.

Slowly mix in dry ingredients until everything is incorporated. Dough should be soft and smooth.

Place into an oiled bowl, cover and allow to rise in a warm place for 1 1/2 hours, until doubled.

Gently deflate dough and knead briefly.

Cut in half and shape into two long ropes, curling into "S" shapes. Place on a lightly greased baking sheet.

Re-cover and allow to rise 1 hour longer.

Preheat oven to 425F.

Mist loaves with water and sprinkle with cornmeal if desired.

Bake 10 minutes, misting the oven with water every 3.

Reduce oven temperature to 400F and bake loaves a further 20-25 minutes, until hollow sounding when tapped.

Sounds interesting - I've never baked with kamut or spelt flour, although I can get it at places like Whole Foods
