Walnuts Red Wine Bread




Ingredients:
All purpose flour, 2 cups
Organic Whole wheat flour, 2cups
Dry yeast, 1 package or 1/2 tablespoon (7g)
Warm water, 1 1/4 cups
Salt, 1 teaspoon
Organic Brown Sugar, 2 tablespoons
Olive Oil, 3 tablespoons
Walnuts, 1/2 cup
Raisins with red wine, approximately 1/2 cup

Preparation:
Immerse raisins in red wine over night or more.

Directions:
In a mixing bowl, combine all purpose flour, whole wheat flour, walnuts, raisins with red wine, salt and brown sugar, and mix them with the machine or by hands.

Mix warm water (about 100 degrees) into a larger bowl, and wait for a few minutes. Then, pour it slowly into the mixing bowl while machine is kneading the dough. Keep kneading for 5-10 minutes. Then, let the dough rise for one hour in a warm place. If a room is not warm, I usually leave longer hours such as 3 or 4 hours. If you prepare it previous night, it will be ready the next morning.

To shape the dough, turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Cut the dough into 2 or 3 separate pieces, and shape them into loaves. Let these loaves rise in a warm place again for 30 minutes.

Spray water on the surface of each loaf and bake in a 375-400 degree oven for about 30 minutes until the surface becomes brown.
