Harry's Dinkel Sandwich Bread
What it is
This is a loaf of sandwich bread made with dinkel flour, also known as spelt. Dinkel is an ancient grain that has a slightly nutty flavor and a chewier texture than common wheat. The bread is baked into a soft, square loaf, perfect for slicing. It's a good choice for everyday sandwiches and toast. The loaf is pre-sliced for your convenience.
How people cook with it
This bread is a versatile staple for many meals. It works well for both sweet and savory preparations.

- Croutons
To enjoy this bread, simply take out the desired number of slices. It is ready to eat straight from the package. For toast, place slices in a toaster until golden brown. It can also be used to make French toast by dipping slices in an egg and milk mixture before frying. Leftover bread can be cubed and baked to make croutons for salads or soups. It's also a good base for open-faced sandwiches.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to standard white bread, dinkel bread has a denser crumb and a more pronounced, slightly sweet, nutty taste due to the spelt flour. It also tends to hold its shape a bit better, making it suitable for heartier fillings.
