First loaf from Reinhart's Whole Grain Breads

Received this book as a Christmas gift from a relative who really enjoys my bread :)  Yesterday I started the first recipe in the book: 100% whole wheat sandwich bread.  My last three attempts at the 100% whole wheat bread in The Bread Baker's Apprentice were failures, so I was hopeful he had tweaked the recipe and technique.

 

Baked it today and had it with dinner.  My wife claims it's the best sandwich bread I've ever made!

 

 

Yum :)  The overnight autolyse and combination of soaker and biga really seem to have made the difference.

That looks great. I would guess it tastes great. I have had nothing but good bread from that book.
