Apr 21, 2017 at 8:16 | comment | added | rumtscho♦ | +1, but still a small correction: You can certainly omit the salt. Salted bread is not the only bread flavor that's good, it is just a matter of most people being accustomed to it. | |
Apr 21, 2017 at 4:37 | comment | added | Paul | Thank you for your reply. You are right about the salt! As for the flavor, I'm willing to try a bitter bread. I'm hoping to get a good baseline of technique and ratios for texture and density before I experiment with flavors. Do you have any tips to counteract the loss of tenderness from honey or the general density of whole wheat bread, aside from using some amount of bread flour? | |
