Easy Scandinavian-Style Bread

...nse whole grain loaf with minimal effort. No starter. No kneading. No rise time, even. It’s a quick bread, essentially. It takes 5 minutes to mix up, then you plop it into a loaf pan and put it in the oven for 1 1/2 hours. That’s it. It lacks the sour flavor and chewiness you get from developed loaves, true, as well as the health benefits/improved digestibility that comes from the fermentation process. But you know, it’s still very good. And it’s...

With this in mind the Homegrown Revolution test kitchen will be experimenting with quick breads in the next few months and presenting the results...

Whole Wheat Sourdough Starter Recipe

UPDATE : we have a whole (so to speak) new take on making a starter. See our sourdough starter video for a better way to do this.

The reason that we have to do this conversion rather than starting out with whole wheat flour is that whole wheat tends to get mol...
