The only difference is the color (white is not WHITE like white flour, more a cream/tan color) and the flavor. Red wheat is stronger in it's flavor. Some people prefer the stronger flavor, I'm not one of them :)Miriamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03171889409871334109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4118162652498641658.post-87493170709033181582011-01-11T17:32:20.956-06:002011-01-11T17:32:20.956-06:00Thanks, everyone for your help!

Whew, I'm not a complete bread dunce! :-) How does the White Wheat flour compare nutritionally/recipe-wise?<br /><br />Stephani-- LOVED the link you posted. That answers a lot of questions I had! I confess to dumping the salt right into the yeast mixture, so that might be part of the problem.Maria D. @ DownrightDomesticityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08455425847355266585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4118162652498641658.post-90300775115566259952011-01-11T08:52:49.171-06:002011-01-11T08:52:49.171-06:00I was browsing through facebook and this was on Be...I was browsing through facebook and this was on Betty Crocker's page. I thought you may find it useful. It's a blog about tips for making good bread. I think I'll try it out later this week :)<br />http://iwannabeafarmer.blogspot.com/2011/01/lets-break-bread.htmlStephanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04774216693468655744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4118162652498641658.post-39311360879291161292011-01-10T20:50:00.871-06:002011-01-10T20:50:00.871-06:00Whole Wheat bread will always be more dense than w...Whole Wheat bread will always be more dense than white bread, and you have to be a really good whole wheat bread maker to get it to turn out right. If this is your first bread making experience, then give yourself some time :) Trial and error and an experienced bread-making friend who can lend you advice and suggestions and answer your questions is the best way to learn. Keep trying and don't give up!! I'm in the throes of learning how to make whole wheat bread, too (I'm using King Arthur's All Natural White Wheat). Feel free to email me (button on my blog) if you have questions or want to talk!Miriamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03171889409871334109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4118162652498641658.post-34403181653530053132011-01-10T18:33:08.690-06:002011-01-10T18:33:08.690-06:00Is this the one you tried on allrecipes? it has 5...Is this the one you tried on allrecipes? it has 5 stars and tons of reviews...<br /><br />http://allrecipes.com//Recipe/simple-whole-wheat-bread/Detail.aspxKayla Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12666634330877505214noreply@blogger.com
