Ingredients
- Onion – 250 g
- Fresh yeast – 25 g
- Butter – 2 tablespoons
- Salt – 1 pinch
- Wholemeal spelt flour – 250 g
- Spelt flour type 630 – 300 g
Cream
- Lemon – 1 piece
- Black pepper – 1 pinch
- Cumin – 0.25 teaspoon
- Salt – 1 pinch
- Spring onion – 6 g
- Semi-skimmed cottage cheese – 300 g
Preparation
Crush the yeast and dissolve it in 250 ml of lukewarm water. Knead wholemeal flour, 250 g of spelt flour type 630, 1 heaped teaspoon of salt, and 1 tablespoon of butter with dissolved yeast into a smooth dough, adding more water if necessary. Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour.
Peel and dice the onion, then fry it in hot butter for about 5 minutes until translucent. Lightly salt and let it cool. Mix it with the remaining flour and knead it into the dough.
Divide the dough in half and shape it into 2 loaves on a little flour. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and leave them covered to rise for another 15 minutes. Then bake the bread in a preheated oven at 200°C for about 40 minutes until golden brown. If the loaves are too brown, cover them with aluminum foil towards the end of baking. Cool on a rack.
To make the cream, crush the cumin. Wash and finely chop the spring onion. Mix everything with cottage cheese. Season with a pinch of grated lemon zest, a little lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Slice the bread and serve with the cream.
