New Jovial Product: Einkorn Kneading Tool

We have an interesting new product to tell you about! We know that einkorn dough can be a little frustrating to work with because it is much stickier than dough made with modern wheat, but that's what's so great about it. You can actually feel how einkorn's gluten differs. Jovial's New Einkorn Kneading Tool is going to help keep your hands out of the messy dough.

Our founder, Carla, who has been working with einkorn for almost eight years now, bakes bread for her family almost everyday. She found that kneading einkorn bread dough by hand very briefly yielded the best bread. Of course, she loves einkorn with all her heart, but she also grew tired of sticky hands. One day at a birthday celebration in Italy with family, she got to talking to a relative of a relative who manufacturers stainless steel tools. She had tried a danish dough whisk, but didn't find them to be strong enough to work well with einkorn. Together with Maurizio, she was able to create a simple tool that she uses at home to knead most types of einkorn bread without touching the dough.

Jovial's Einkorn Kneading Tool is easy to use- just add the ingredients to a large bowl, and mix the dough as if you were using a large wooden spoon until the water absorbs the flour. You can use the edge to cut into the dough for better mixing. And, since the tool is made from polished stainless steel and has a hole in the middle, it won't drag in the dough.

You can also use the tool to scrape the sides of the bowl. If the dough is stiff, use the kneading tool as much as possible, then cover the bowl and let the dough rest for 15 minutes. During the resting period, the flour will absorb the liquid and become less sticky so you can finish the kneading by hand without as much of a mess.

Made from stainless steel in Italy, Jovial's new Einkorn Kneading tool is very sturdy, beautiful to look at, and dishwasher safe. This tool will last for a lifetime of delicious einkorn bread! Available to purchase now.
