The Entire Kernal…
Beautiful isn’t it? Bread made with 100% whole wheat flour and just a few other ingredients. If you’ve been to this blog before you know that my diet is the antithesis of a low-carb or gluten-free diet…the bulk of my diet consists of bread, rice, and pasta (with vegetables, meat, and fish). And for thisContinue reading “The Entire Kernal…”

Fourteen Beans…
I’m not one to normally by bean blends because it is so easy to just blend your own (and anything pre-mixed is usually more expensive), but last week I was at the grocery store and saw these and they looked so beautiful I purchased them.

Beautiful, isn’t it? This is just another example that you can make bread out of nearly anything you like.

While the dough looks reallyContinue reading “Whole-Wheat Chickpea-Turmeric Bread, an interesting Ezekiel Bread variation…sort of”

The Ezekiel Bread that Almost Wasn’t…
In order to explain the title of this post I have to tell a brief story. And the reason I tell this story is that I am a firm believer that good food can come out of mishap, or at least a near mishap. But I’m getting ahead of myself. The above picture is thatContinue reading “The Ezekiel Bread that Almost Wasn’t…”
Just Four Ingredients (OK, Five)
“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.” Leonardo da Vinci That beautiful loaf of bread pictured above was made with the four basic bread ingredients: flour, water, yeast, and salt.

100% Whole-Wheat Wild Rice Bread

It’s similar to any of the whole wheat bread recipes on this blog–including the Ezekiel Bread recipe–with the exception that it contains wild rice. Delicious…anyhow, here’s the recipe.Continue reading “100% Whole-Wheat Wild Rice Bread”
Two Loaves of Ezekiel Bread, a Pizza, and Why it Took Nearly 48 Hours to Make them
Firstly, this post is not about how to make Ezekiel Bread, per se, but more about how to incorporate bread making into the rhythm of your daily life rather than upsetting it. I have always thought, and still do, that the bread mostly makes itself, we simply provide the correct conditions and guide it along.Continue reading “Two Loaves of Ezekiel Bread, a Pizza, and Why it Took Nearly 48 Hours to Make them”
Oatmeal-Flax Bread (whole wheat, of course)
In an effort to make ever healthier breads, this is my latest one. It’s really just a variation on a them of whole wheat breads. This one simply includes oatmeal and flax seed.
