Method

Mix the wheat and chestnut flour with the salt.
Dissolve the yeast in the water, stir in the olive oil and slowly add this to the flour mixture, mixing and kneading as you go.
Remove from the bowl and knead for a further 5 minutes on a floured board. Cover with a cloth and leave to rise for 2 or 3 hours in a warm place.
Heat the oven to 220C.
Cut the dough into 2 pieces, knead again for a minute or two. Shape into rough loaves and put into buttered loaf tins.
As soon as they are in the oven, reduce the heat to 200C and bake for about 30 minutes.
