Dissolve the yeast in lukewarm water and add a pinch of sugar. Grind the spelt, add salt, and any grains of your choice. Add the yeast water and knead for about 5 minutes until you have a smooth dough. Place the dough in a plastic bowl and cover with a tea towel. Let the dough rise in a warm place (e.g., in an open oven at 50°C) until it has doubled in size (takes about 15-20 minutes). Knead the dough briefly again. Shape the dough into a loaf (it’s best to sprinkle some flour on your hands, otherwise the dough will stick too much) and place it on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Brush the loaf with egg white and let it rise for another 15 minutes. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C on the middle rack for about 42-45 minutes.
