Carolyn, you are remembering our series on adding whole wheat flour to pizza, rolls and yeast breads, along with blogs about adding it to breakfast items and lastly, cookies, bars, and brownies. And you're right--whole wheat flour requires some additional moisture to make it fully hydrated and rise correctly. If you use a few tablespoons of orange juice for this extra liquid, it helps offset some of the potential bitter flavor of whole wheat. Happy whole grain baking! Kye@KAF
