Advice

When making wheat bread, it is important to use a recipe that is specifically designed for wheat bread. This is because the combination of ingredients and the amount of yeast used is different from that used for white bread. It is also important to use a bread machine or a mixer with a dough hook, as the dough should be kneaded for a longer period of time than white bread. When kneading, be sure to knead until the dough is elastic and has a smooth texture. Finally, use a combination of wheat flour and bread flour for a better texture and flavor.
