Show E3 Wednesday. February 5, 1986 The Salt Lake Tribune, Freshness is important determinant of bread flour By Carol Flinders Every good truism deserves an oc- casional reconsideration. It's almost axiomatic among natural foods enthusiasts, for example, that stone ground flour makes a better whole wheat bread. Slow grinding between stones makes for lower temperatures, so the oil in the wheat germ doesnt suffer from Vitamin E is preserved, which in turn protects against rancidity. d whole wheat flour is usually rather coarse, and it can indeed make wonderfully flavorful bread with a nubbly texture that fairly shrieks "Good Health. By and large, its my personal preference. But the very finely ground roller-o- r hammer-mille- d flour has its own advantages. It makes a resilient bread which might actually be more readily received by your family. It is cheaper, moreover, since hammer mills and roller mills run at higher volume than stone mills do. And conscientious millers today tend to have air coolers for both stone mills and hammer mills to prevent detrimentally high temperatures. Freshness is a more important determinant of good bread flour, as is high gluten content.

Knead until dates have nearly disappeared and the dough is soft, smooth and elastic (about 20 minutes), adding the butter toward the end of the kneading period in cold bits, and working the dough until it is silky. Form the dough into a ball and place it smooth side up in the bowl. Cover and keep in a warm, draft-fre- e place. After about an hour and a half, gently poke the center of the dough about deep with your wet finger. If the hole doesn't fill in at all, or if the dough sighs, it is ready for the next step. Press flat, form into a smooth round, and let the dough rise once again. The second rising will take about half as long. Press the dough flat and divide in two.
