I need to read up more on this, but it appears that wheat flour doesn’t rise like white flour. I just ran a test to see the difference between using a standard white flour and whole wheat flour to make bread. I ran the test according to how I normally make my rustic white bread.

Testing Creme Brulee Tops
Sorry, I missed you yesterday. I was on a hunger strike trying to persuade the Food Network to cancel Semi Home Cooking. The good news is it ended in a draw. The Food Network agreed to not cut Semi Home Cooking and I agreed to start eating again.
Check out these mini cast iron pots I received for Christmas! The first thing I made with them was Creme Brulee for two. A single person could eat one, but you would need to have a defibrillator handy. Creme Brulee has nothing to do with skinny: heavy cream, sugar, egg yolks and vanilla. I guess the vanilla is the ‘diet’ ingredient. It tasted great, but as you can see from the above image, the sugar shell on top left something to be desired.
