Simple Recipes

1. Line a standard-size loaf pan. Whisk the rye, spelt flours, baking powder, and dried yeast in a mixing bowl. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Add in salt, sugar, finely grated fresh ginger, beetroot juice, buttermilk and walnut oil. Beat thoroughly.
2. Fold in diced cooked beetroot, 80 grams of walnuts and fennel seeds. The dough should be thick and sticky. Now scrape the dough into the prepared loaf pan. Lightly press the rest of the walnuts into the dough.
3. Leave it, covered with a clean kitchen towel, at a warm spot for 20 minutes. At the same time, preheat the oven to 200C/400F, leaving a tray of boiling water at the bottom of the oven. Bake the bread in the middle rack of the hot oven for about 35 minutes.

A characteristic sauerkraut kamut bread, adapted from Meine Familie & ich: Brote für Genießer 11/2012, packed with wonderful flavour and a tantalizingly crunchy crust. It's hearty, moist, and tasty with a slight sweet tang. Enjoy it with a German sausage salad or simply with cheese.

1. Place kamut, bread flours in the bowl of your table mixer. Make a well in the center, crumble the fresh yeast into the well. Add in 100 ml lukewarm water and raw sugar in the well, stirring to dissolve the yeast. Leave it at side for 15 minutes.
   
2. Drain and squeeze sauerkraut dry. Add in the rest of water, salt, sauerkraut, cumin, sour cream, and crisp dried onions. Stir until the dough is smooth and pliable, about 7 minutes. Shape the dough into a ball and proof, covered with a kitchen towel, for 30 minutes.
   
3. Turn out the dough on the lightly floured work surface and knead thoroughly. Shape the dough into a round or baton or divide the dough into two portions and shape each portion into an oval. Dust the formed loaves with a little rye flour and place them on a parchment-lined baking tray.
   
4. Cover the loaves with a clean kitchen towel and proof for about 40 minutes. Preheat the oven to 220C/410F. Slash the top of the loaves and bake for 35 minutes until nicely golden brown and crisp.

Thick "steaks" are cut from a head of cauliflower, simply seasoned and drizzled with olive oil, then baked until tender. They are served with a very simple parsley sauce, which can be prepared up to 3 days in advance. This way of preparing cauliflower is very simple and wonderfully delicious!

1. Preheat oven 200C/400F degrees. Drizzle a large baking sheet with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
   
2. Wash the cauliflower and remove the tough outer leaves of the cauliflower and discard.
   Cut cauliflower vertically into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Arrange in a single layer on prepared pan. Drizzle cauliflower with remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
   
3. While the cauliflowers are roasting, combine all of the ingredients except the olive oil for the green sauce in a blender and process into a smooth sauce. With the motor running, open lid and slowly drizzle in olive oil. Serve with roasted cauliflowers.
