But sandwich bread?doesn&#8217;t have to be dull and uninspired.? With a little imagination, even simple sandwich bread can take center stage, providing both?a satisfying, deep wheaty flavor?and needed nutrition.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->This 100% whole wheat sandwich bread?is made from flour derived?from white spring wheat, rather than the red wheat that goes into making?conventional whole wheat flour.? The resulting white wheat flour has a less biting?flavor, making it ideal for?sandwich bread even for those, like myself, who do not like the taste of conventional whole wheat bread.??And while whole wheat breads can tend to be dense and heavy, this bread has a light and airy crumb, in part due?to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.breadcetera.com\/?p=157\" target=\"_self\">double flour addition technique<\/a> that is used during the mixing of the dough.? Butter and dried milk powder provide a richness and tenderness to the crumb.??Finally,?a touch of honey lends just the right note?of sweetness.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span><strong>Poolish<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span>185 g?King Arthur White Whole Wheat Flour<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>185 g?Water<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>1\/16 tsp.?Instant Yeast<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span><strong>Final Dough<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>460?g?King Arthur White Whole Wheat?Flour<\/li>\n<li>370 g?(all of the above) Poolish<\/li>\n<li>260 g Water<\/li>\n<li>15 g Dried?Milk Powder<\/li>\n<li>1 3\/4 tsp.
