Triticale Bread


From the Kitchen of:  Helen
Source:  The Book of Whole Grains

Triticale has a delicate gluten, so handle it as little as possible. It rises best first time, which means it's a fast bread to make; you can begin just 2 hours before mealtime and have fresh bread hot for the meal.

Dissolve yeast in warm water. Combine honey, oil, water, and salt in a large bowl. Stir in yeast mixture. Add flour a little at a time, kneading last part in with hands. Form into a loaf, place in a 4-1/2x8-1/2 inch bread tin, and allow to rise in a warm place until dough is just above the top of the pan. Place in a preheated 450F oven and lower the temperature to 375F immediately. Bake for 55-60 minutes. Remove from bread tin; allow to cool slightly before slicing.
