This looks great but I was puzzled as to why you are using regular flour vs. bread flour in the bread. Could I use bread flour? Would it change the amount of flour I use? I thought the structure would be better with a bread flour because of the heaviness of the whole wheat. Thanks for the blog and pictures. I think it makes it possible for anyone to bake bread! Patty, thanks for your kind words. Bread flour would be fine - I usually recommend AP just because more people have it in their cupboard. Just add a couple of more tablespoons of water (maybe up to 3 tablespoons?) to get the same soft, elastic dough texture. PJH
