I'm closing on a house on Tuesday (Jess and I like to do things 100% at the same time it seems, lol) so I have no access to cooking things for a while.<br /><br />USUALLY, you have to do a wheat starter to do whole wheat breads. Sort of like a sourdough starter, but not so long. You can sometimes mix your flour 50/50 and it can come out well, but it depends on the bread. WW flours usually also call for more yeast, so you'll want to be sure to have enough at home to start. <br /><br />Until I get my recipes back, I'd try foodtv.com or random searches for breads. The basic recipes should be easily found online.Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18344852365413744416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587859392691994402.post-62746475388277796242010-03-26T13:11:25.634-07:002010-03-26T13:11:25.634-07:00ok will try mixing it all together and try again. ...ok will try mixing it all together and try again. do u have a recipe that you can send me? what about whole wheat flour.. the recipe i have is AP flour and i'd like to use ww.Deepahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09466183463873682840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587859392691994402.post-72532337230212497512010-03-26T07:00:54.212-07:002010-03-26T07:00:54.212-07:00I make bread aaaaall the time and here's my ti...I make bread aaaaall the time and here's my tip. Never proof the yeast like the recipe says to. Just put the yeast in with everything else, add your warm water/milk/etc. last. It is much easier and works like a charm. To determine hot water, I stick my finger in the water. I want it to feel hot, but not so hot I can't keep my finger in the water, ya know? Keep trying. And do get some fresh yeast packets my dear....Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18344852365413744416noreply@blogger.com
