Simple soul that I am, I put 3C warm water in large plastic bowl with 1 tsp sugar and one package yeast. When it is proofed, bubbling, with one tablespoon salt I add whole wheat flour, mixing it in until it feels right, let it rise, knead it into 4 half loaves leaving them to rise in two bread pans. When 1/2 to 1 inch above edge of pans, I bake at 350, tenting it after 20 minutes with tinfoil, then cook another 35 minutes. Etc. Easy for an old guy, to remember and to do. Thank you.

In reply to Ed. It improves the texture! Makes it softer.

Why do you need to add the dry milk? Thank you.
