I read somewhere that you can use whey (left over from cheese making) in bread, so I tried it in these loaves. The dark ones are made with 4 cups each or dark rye mix and organic white flour,  6 teaspoons of dry yeast, 3 teaspoons of bread improver, 6 teaspoons of sugar, a tablespoon…… Continue reading bread
