Submitted by CountryBoy on January 17, 2008 - 8:10pm Reinhart's BBA Whole-Wheat BreadIn Reinhart's BBA Whole-Wheat Bread on page 271, he lists:
Now I have a full bag of King Arthur's Traditional White Whole Wheat flour that I will be using for this. However I am not sure what he means by "high-protein whole-wheat flour"? Can I use Bread Flour instead of that? Or should I just use my King Arthur's Traditional White Whole Wheat flour throughout and just add a Tablespoon of gluten for each cup of flour to substitute for the high-protein whole-wheat flour he asks for? Thanks.

same through out
When I have made I used the same throughout, white whole wheat. I grind my own and I guess I could grind some coarser, but I haven't tried that yet.

So you added no gluten at all?
Does everyone agree?
high protein
I don't have that book, but I have his new one on whole grain breads. I would think he is talking about hard, red spring wheat which has a protein content on average of 13.5%, or durum wheat which has a protein content ranging from 12.5%-17%, according to his new book. He says that when adding vital wheat gluten, if too much is added than it will produce a rubbery texture and add a bit of harsh flavor. He only only uses it with sprouted breads in this book. I don't use that myself, so I wouldn't be able to answer how much to use.
Ramona, thanks
Ramona, thanks. In the past I have often run across the situation that
but I never connected the two before. Most grateful for your comment.
The poolish is in the fridge tonight and tomorrow I bake, so, time will tell how I do with this. Thanks.
