Mix emmer flour, bread flour, starter, honey, oil, salt, and warm water into a firm dough.

Let the dough ferment until airy but still sturdy.

Shape a round loaf, dust with bran, and tie lightly with twine to mark the sides.

Score the top into wedge sections and remove the twine before baking if needed.

Bake until dark, crusty, and hollow-sounding.
