HOUSE BREAD
I like my homemade bread flecked with a bit of this and a bit of that, without any cane
sugar in it so that the flavor of the fresh flours is dominant. In this case I add just a bit
of rye flour, buckwheat flour, and wheat germ, which I usually seem to have on hand.
Since the additions to this bread depend on what I have around, it has also been made
with cornmeal or corn flour, graham flour, teff flour, kamut flour, or whole wheat flour
substituted for one or another of the flours called for in the recipe. Just a little bit of
something out of the ordinary is enough to subtly affect the taste of this great loaf. The
main ingredient, of course, is a good, strong bread flour, as fresh as possible.
