Thank you for the link Hidden

It was very interesting seeing how the gluten blows up like a balloon. I'm with you, if I could eat 'normal' bread then it would be wholewheat bread, I've always liked bread that is more dense and with lots of seeds etc and one that has what I would call a nuttier taste.

I made my own gluten twice! Very long process. When you get rid of the starch in the flour by washing it... it leaves this brown slime and vegetarians call it seitan. Mostly used to reproduce the texture of meat. When you can eat it, and when it’s well prepared, it’s really good!

Hi Hidden

I love bread, and try to choose freshly baked wholewheat and wholegrain breads whenever I can.
