Buckwheat bread
Buckwheat bread is a recipe that combines the richness of buckwheat with the soft texture of various flours to create a nutritious and aromatic loaf. First, the yeast is activated in warm water with sugar until it forms a sponge. Then, buttermilk, salt, eggs, the three different flours, and caraway seeds are added, mixing all the ingredients well. The dough is kneaded until smooth and left to rest in a greased bowl, covered with a cloth, in a warm place until it doubles in size, a process that takes between an hour and a half to two hours. Afterwards, it is kneaded lightly again and the loaf is shaped, placed in a greased pan to rest and increase in size once more. Finally, it is baked at 400 degrees, brushed with melted butter, until golden and crisp to the touch. The bread is cooled wrapped in a cloth to maintain its freshness.
