I'm looking for a recipe for whole wheat bread that I discovered over 20
years ago while I was in college. I've googled like crazy and haven't
found it yet. I thought I might try the group and see if anyone had
something close. The recipe was on the back of the whole wheat flour bag
(and no, I can't remember the brand of flour except that it was stone
ground). The recipe was unique in that you started with a 1/2 cup of
butter, 1/2 cup of honey and I *think* a 1/2 cup of powdered milk in a
large bowl. You then added boiling water into the bowl (not sure how much)
and let it cool to add the yeast. I'm fairly certain it called for 5-6
cups of whole wheat flour and made two loaves. This was an excellent
recipe, very consistent for a beginner baker and produced a nice moist,
hearty loaf.

I would be very grateful for any suggestions/guidance/advice.

Where were you located when you purchased the flour? Did you buy a
local/regional brand?
