Made a few loaves of Sourdough with Sprouted Whole Wheat Flour again. One loaf the rolls were for a small Dinner Party with a few of my Wife's workmates.

Teketeke Bread
teketeke got me going with my YW a couple of years ago and I have helped quite a few others, as she helped me, to get theirs going. Here is what I basically sent them but fixing all the spelling and grammar errors I could find. Hope this will help all who want give YW a shot – it is so worth having another child in the kitchen.
Well I got a successful yeast water culture going and it is bubbling and fizzing like a can of Vernor's ginger ale! A big shout out to dabrownman for pmi'ng me detailed instructions, followed to the tee. I baked this exactly as the last sd boule only using YW to build the levain. The dough felt immediately different -- more extensible and felt nearly fully developed after the second set of S&F's. Nice volume, nice open crumb and very mild flavour and great chew - almost too mild, so I guess I have come to appreciate the flavour profile of my sweet levain!
This is the same 675 AP and 125 WW Pain de Campagne I have been making. However, this dough had a different feel all together. Again, never throw out what could be a disaster. This was proofed in a regular bowl instead of my standard banneton. I am not used to a bowl I suppose. The dough was more stiff than usual and appeared a little lumpy. The proof looked weird. It did not have a nice rounded bump when I removed it from the fridge.
Last loaf of the day, haven't cut it to check the crumb, but will post pic when I do!
Buttered right out of the pan, love the flavor it adds.
Looking forward to a toasted slice of this to go with my oatmeal in the morning!
After two weeks of travel and eating out, it was super nice this weekend to be back in my kitchen and able to eat at home. I celebrated by baking three batches of bread.
The first, pictured above, was a 60% whole wheat, 13% spelt sourdough (73% hydration). It was good, though a bit grainier than what my family typically likes. Still, we enjoyed it.
I also made a batch of Hokkaido Milk Bread.
I was gonna make a 50% wholewheat ciabatta with hybrid levin. After milking the soy bean,I thought I should added some of the soy pulps in my loaf.
The calcuated hydration was at 80%, I guess the grains soak up a lot of water, so I ended up with a tacky dough instead of a ciabatta dough.
The coming week would be a ciabatta challenge again! Hopefully no pulps will come in my way.
