If I don’t have soft white wheat, can I use all hard red wheat and still get a good outcome?
Pat Galloway
Love the recipe, love the results. Just one thing: the recipe calls for 515 g. of the soft white (3 cups), but as those of us who weigh our wheat berries before grinding, 3 cups equals 307.5 g. I’ll be keeping an eye on you—for more great recipes, of course!
