Breads made with different percentage of whole wheat flour are compared\, and the discussion covers how to apply whole grain flours in natural and yeasted preferments and in final formulas. You will be producing multigrain\, 100% whole wheat sourdoughs\, among others. \nThe second half of this series focuses on working with specialty flours\, including alternative grains such as Kamut® and spelt\, gluten-free grains such as buckwheat\, millet and teff.
