Recipe Review

I have made this recipe 4 times and it is a great everyday use bread. I have used it as sandwich bread and made it into rolls and both ways are equally satisfying.

It is very light and airy and you cannot even tell it is made from 100% whole wheat. All of my past attempts with wheat bread (using other non Peter Reinhart recipes) has resulted in bread that more resembles a brick than a soft loaf of bread.

I have also tried and enjoyed some of the suggested recipe variations, substituting 5 oz of ground flax seeds (i didn't have whole) for 5 oz whole wheat flour.

I would rate this recipe 4 stars. Near perfect. The only deficiency preventing me from giving it 5 stars is the bread is a little bit dense making it difficult to slice very thin slices cleanly without breaking. It may be a result of 100% whole wheat flour, rather than the recipe or it may be a result of baker error as well, so I apologize for the rating downgrade if that is the case.
