This thread could possibly qualify for several forum sections because it deals with baking, healthy/nutrition and cookbooks so help/move if it can fly better in another forum.
My wife and I have decided to add more whole grain to our diet. I have been experimenting with some bread recipes by substituting some whole wheat flour at about 1/3 the total. I found I needed to slightly increase the yeast and my results have been very good.
I purchase some specialty flours and malt for pizza dough from King Arthur and we always get their catalog. My wife spotted their whole grain cook book and we ordered it. She attempted something from the cookbook this weekend and I’m not too sure what happened but it was a very heavy blob in the bowl that was supposed to rise but obviously didn’t.
Have any members here used any recipes from the King Arthur cook book I mentioned? How were your results?
My wife said she followed the recipe to exact specifications and I have been married long enough to know I am not about to argue this point. Has anyone ever encountered any cook book recipe that just didn’t work?
