THE best bread Ive ever made! I substituted Kamut flour for the WW and Palm shortening for the veg. oil and it turned out perfect. Thanks so much

I just took this bread out of the oven and it is truly what the title says..awesome. I did one thing different out of necessity. I didn’t have 5 whole cups of whole wheat flour so I had to substitute 1.5 cups of bread flour to make up the difference. I also used the dough cycle on my bread machine. This is the best wheat bread I have ever made. All my others have been removed from my recipe box. Awesome doesn’t come close to describing this bread. The dough enhhancer makes a huge difference in the rise of the bread. I found a recipe on line for the enhancer and made my own. I was unable to find it in the grocery store but did notice it is available to order on line.

I have never used the dough enhancer and vital wheat gluten together. I usually use the gluten. It has made my bread SO much better. You can also use soy licithin instead of the enhancer (it might be the same thing with a different name). You might want to try using one instead of both and see if the bread is still “awesome”.
Also there also another site that sells both, bluechipgroup.net. They have great prices too (at least for us in the west).

Dough enhancer is a product that has tofu in it and other magical ingredients that make the bread stay soft. Vital wheat gluten is also known as gluten flour, you can buy this at most any grocery store in the baking section. I get my dough enhancer and vital wheat gluten at my local wal-mart, they have a food storage section where these two items are sold. Or you can buy them online, just do a search for them. They are for sure needed in the recipe to make the bread at it’s best. You won’t be sorry if you invest in those two ingredients.

This is truly awesome bread! You can find vital wheat gluten at the grocery store usually. I buy both the Vital wheat gluten and dough enhancer from pleasanthillgrain.com They sell it at a good price. You do need these items in order for the bread to be it’s best!
