Dense whole grain bread
Forums:
So I decided to try the whole grain sourdough recipe from How to Make Bread by Emmanuel Hadjiandreou. I have never worked with whole grains before for bread. My 100% hydration starter was at peak and has been a workhorse so I know I had leavening power. I followed the recipe exactly except I substituted bukgur for cracked wheat as no grocery store around had cracked wheat. I followed instructions and amounts carefully.
