Heck if I know, Serene. In retrospect, it was probably closer to a
teaspoon+. I didn't measure and I didn't take the time to research
the "correct" amount. In the deep dark recesses of my brain, though,
I have a memory of one being able to sub either 1/3 or 1/2 the white
flour with ww without making any adjustments. But I have it in the
fridge and figured it wouldn't hurt to add some, so I wasn't worried
about being on the light side of the measure. Sound science, eh?

The dough handled the same as with all white -- that really wasn't a lot
of ww in proportion to the white -- 20 percent.
