Whole wheat bread

Wholemeal Bread Recipe

This is one of my favorite breads, plus it seems to be one of the best for the health, I particularly like the taste of its crumb and the flavor it gives off during cooking. It is a bread that does not go stale too quickly, good !! I admit that at home he does not have time to stale: I just eat it out of greed, a small slice in front of the TV. Wholemeal bread, this bread withstands freezing wonderfully, each time I make three at a time and freeze two. I never store it for long: they are eaten during the week and this allows me to change breads every 4 days. I love having lunch with this wholemeal bread, a nice toast with a little sweet or even salted butter, morning happiness, no need to run after fresh bread, especially with these cold weather in January.
