Neither 'Bread' nor 'AB&P' have wholewheat pan loaf recipes?
Has the internet reduced my brain to a mush no longer capable of finding information in printed form? I can't seem to find a recipe for a wholewheat pan (sandwich) bread in either Bread or Advanced Bread & Pastry. Anyone with either book care to confirm or point out my inability to use an index?

Hi,
If you are looking for 100% whole wheat recipes, I think you are right about Hamelman's Bread. There are two different 50% ww recipes that can be made into pan breads. On p. 168 (2004 version) there is a Whole Wheat Levain, and on p. 246 there is a Whole Wheat with Pecan and Golden Raisins (which can probably be omitted for a straight ww dough). There are also several with lower percentage of ww. Hamelman will be coming out with a second edition later this year, but I don't know what is included or left out relative to the current edition.
Another post earlier today pointed to this recipe: http://www.delectableplanet.com/recipes/how-to-make-whole-wheat-bread.html
