Wheat sandwich bread

Posted Sun, 05/07/2017 - 14:42 by Jon

This recipe presumes a bread machine.

1⅓ c water
¼ c grains (fast-cooking better)
⅛ c gluten
2 cups wheat flour
1 c less ⅛ white flour
2 T dry milk
2 t salt
3 T honey (use a T measure to make indents in the flour, pour in)
3 T butter in small pieces
just less than 2t yeast on top

Add ingredients in order - the gluten and flour will "float" on top of the water, make sure the grains you add are in the water to soak.

A really nice alternative summer gazpacho. If you don't like vinegar as much as I do, feel free to reduce the vinegar and/or lime juice proportions to taste. Courtesy of Bon Appetit.

¼ cup white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (about 1 lime)
1 cup plain Greek yogurt, plus an optional ½ cup or serving
½ cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling
4 oz. ciabatta or country-style bread, crust removed, bread torn into 1” pieces (about 2½ cups)
