Fabulous bread recipe! The flavor is wonderful and I love the texture, too. We just had some with dinner and my family all inhaled slice after slice. I'm already craving some toasted! It took me a while to find gluten, but I finally did. Now I have a small box and am already looking forward to making this bread recipe again. I halved the recipe to make 2 loaves. I only had one problem (which did not affect the taste at all) - my bread did not get nearly as big/tall as in your picture. In fact, I was thinking I should have put all of the dough into 1 pan (instead of 2 - for half the recipe). After looking at your photo, I'm thinking something wasn't quite right with the way I did mine. I did the sponging, and the 2 rising times - and it appeared to rise each time. So, not sure where I went wrong.? That said, it still tasted wonderful. We loved it. Thanks!! ~Made for the March Aus/NZ Recipe Swap~

I had posted in a thread about getting my whole wheat bread to rise. This chef gave me her recipe. It does take quite a bit longer than my recipe, but boy does it turn out yummy! Light, yet stays together. I accidentally used 2 cups Recipe #58242 (dry) plus 1 cup freshly ground whole wheat and 3+ cups of white. I had leftovers from Recipe #330898. I was worried about the small amt of oil, but it was okay. I mixed for 8 min. in the Bosch and did 2 rises. I was leary about 400° as I bake mine at 350, so did 375 and brushed melted butter on after. These only made 2 decent sized loaves. I am going to try this with all whole wheat next time and see how it goes. Cross your fingers.

Came together easily and made a rich, soft, flavorful loaf of bread. While working with the dough I was aware that this is a well-used and long-tested recipe, as all the amounts seemed right and the result was perfect the first time. Made for OZ/NZ swap. (Although reviewer and chef live within 60 miles of one another in Oregon, USA!)

<p>I live on the Oregon Coast with husband and four boys. I am able to stay at home with them and hold down the fort. I have many cookbooks which I enjoy searching through for our family favorites. I recently started working as a home health care worker for seniors with disabilities (which I absolutely love), I love to quilt, crochet, bake, read, garden, watch the rain (which happens quite frequently here) and play with my kids. <br /><br />I am passionate about canning, canning, canning. I will admit I like admiring all the hard work after the jars are placed on the shelves. hehee I am all for if I can make it myself I will. Yes...I am frugal. I also love to bake. Especially homemade bread. I will continue to do so until arthritis takes over my hands. Then I will use more of the mixer for the kneading part. <br />All recipes I post are ones I've made and are our famiy favorites. <br /><br />I love pretty flowers. These flowers grace our yard every year. I could watch them all day long and be perfectly content! <br /><a href=http://s260.photobucket.com/albums/ii24/zauggrc/?action=view?t=2008flowers008.jpg target=_blank><img src=http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii24/zauggrc/2008flowers008.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></a></p>
