I made this recipe yesterday and my husband said "Wow, your bread baking skills are improving!" I had to laugh. Sometimes the simplest things are the best. Thank you for this blog, and for keeping up with it even during this trying time for your family. I really enjoy your musings on bread, gardening, books, and life. :-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14344267128267970728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4916485057164205644.post-34215876308648277352016-03-16T16:22:28.788-04:002016-03-16T16:22:28.788-04:00made this recipe yesterday, 1 loaf and 8 knot roll...made this recipe yesterday, 1 loaf and 8 knot rolls!

Usually, I substitute about half of the flour for my freshly ground white wheat flour. I use just slightly less flour but otherwise the recipe is just the same. We prefer whole grains since that is what we usually eat and we like this bread with half wheat. <br />GinaGinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05420137490490341730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4916485057164205644.post-65529857332611825812011-01-27T12:08:52.501-05:002011-01-27T12:08:52.501-05:00Gina, I know you use freshly ground flour sometime...Gina, I know you use freshly ground flour sometimes.
