F%#K

Stuff I just discovered. Stuff that
mankind's known for a few millenniums.

You can't willy-nilly ^successfully substitute rye flour for white flour in a French bread recipe.

You're right, but it might have been okay if you had gone with 1/2 rye (or whatever)flour and 1/2 white.

The prob with rye is it is resistant to mold ... including yeast.

Kristopher, your comments are always informative. Thanks.

...yet lysergic acid diethlamide is made from ergot of rye, a mold.

leelu: I said mold resistant, not mold proof.

Another resistant grain is Triticale ... you cannot make bread from it at all, just noodles.
