Guest guest Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Heavy breads have more calories purely by volume, but if you compare it per once, you will find a similar caloric load to the 'fluffy' breads. Fluffy breads are lighter due to more air pockets, and air has no calories, of course! It all boils down to personal preference, but I find that when I eat " fluffy " bread, I am not as satisfied and I eat 2 slices instead of the one slice I would choose from a heavier bread. I end up eating about the same calories either way. <shrugs shoulders> I tend to prefer the heavier, more " wholesome " flavor of dense breads...that is, unless I'm eating peanut butter and jelly, LOL! --Celia-- Re: Tassajara cookbook Posted by: " wwjd " jtwigg cvtfluffy Mon Oct 9, 2006 4:51 am (PST) I don't think they have a lot more calories, never noticed that on any package that I have bought before. The ones that I have made also don't seem to have high calorie ingredients either. Judy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 I like really heavy bread too. Lots of whole grains and nuts. Debbie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 10, 2006 Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 Most of my vegetarian meatloaves have more legumes and no flour. May contain some oats though! Debbie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 10, 2006 Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 I was joking!! Since both are made in loaf pans and are the same color and weight (in many cases) you might not know which was which!! I did make a super whole wheat-zucchini-corn-cheese bread today in my machine. Not veggie loaf heavy, but with a moist tight grain and texture. It started as plain zucchini wheat bread, but I played with the recipe a bit. It's a 2lb recipe: 1 cup squeezed dryish shredded zucchini 1/2 cup corn (I used thawed) 1 cup water 1/4 cup vegetable oil 1/8 cup honey (make it 1/4 if you like it sweeter) 1 1/3 tsp fine sea salt-regular is fine too. 5 tbs wheat germ 2 cups whole wheat flour 2 cups bread flour 1 packet (2 1/4tsp) yeast 1 or 2 tbs spice blend depending how strong a herb taste you like (basil, rosemary,parsley, oregano, marjoram, etc. your choice) 1 tbs garlic powder 1tsp fresh ground black pepper 2 tbs dried onion flakes 1 cup total shredded chedder and mozzerella. Or any combo you like. Add ingredients to your 2lb capacity machine in order suggested by manufacturer. If you add corn and zucchini at the " add-in " beeps you will be able to see them in the finished loaf. Otherwise they will get mixed in completely. Bake on wheat cycle, medium crust.
