The Wednesday Nov.5th addition of the Denver Post had a very interesting article about a local pizza place that is using real whole wheat to make their dough.

They are using a variety of Edison Wheat developed at the University of Washington. Apparently the U. has a eight acre test plot , growing 40.000 strains of wheat.

They also have a bread lab where cooks are getting together to use this wheat.

Nice! I would volunteer to test grow it. What a great find, thanks for sharing!

I'm tired of walking, and will rest for a minute and grow some wheels. This is the promise of this tiny ad:
