Need to find this in HK, any ideas?
Ezekiel is healthier but has the taste and texture of packing material. Woof.
If I'm going the "healthier" bread route, I usually get the whole-grain German pumpernickel vollkronbrot or the Scandinavian rye crisp breads. Neither are healthy per se, but better than a baguette made of 100% refined wheat flour and you get a ton of fiber and more nutrients due to the use of the whole grain, bran, germ and all.
i never see pumpernickle bread in HK... where do you get it?
You can just make your own out of 3-4 ingredients. It is remarkably simple, and popular these days.
You do need some kind of oven though. Small tabletop ones work.
make your own, just like @huja created Vollkronbrot
That's even in Germany a rather uncommon type. It's really dense. I don't really like that, and I love bread.
I do DIY for ages. If you have an oven, good. If not, get one. If no space, get a bread maker - they are OK for the every day bread.
The workload to make bread is quite minimal. A bit kneading, the rest is basically waiting. I started with the bread maker, but now do oven bakes, 100% sourdough (but without the fuzz that's often associated with it, my bread is basically for eating, not for instagram).
Benefit: much cheaper, and sourdough plus long fermentation is much easier to digest. My dough stays a minimum of 20 hours in the fridge before baking. Still have some baguette dough in the fridge from last week, will give that a bake tonight.
