Publisher's Synopsis
Home-baked, nutrient-rich, soft, light 100% Whole Wheat Bread really is possible even in a busy world. The recipes, photos, and step-by-step instructions in this book show that it can be accomplished in as little as 1 hour and 30 minutes with only five ingredients. When whole wheat and other grains are refined, as much as 89% nutrient loss occurs, including 100% of the fiber, affecting blood sugar and cholesterol levels, cravings for sweets, elimination of toxic substances from the body, and nutrient absorption in the digestive tract. In this era of wheat intolerance for many people, incomplete digestion of wheat can be part of the problem. Included research studies have found that sourdough bread improves digestion of wheat and reduces these intolerances in some cases. All the tools and ingredients found in the book will successfully produce four versions of a soft and tasty whole wheat loaf (by hand, bread mixer, bread machine, sourdough). Additional dough and bread options are included, as well as costs, showing that it is much less expensive when compared with whole grain bakery purchased bread.
