Experimenting with multi grain breads...

[hsmomof5]

I have a bread recipe that I like. The flour is about 2/3 white and 1/3 wheat (I use fresh ground wheat). (can't remember the exact amounts off hand)

I would like to use this recipe but with all fresh ground wheat or other flours. In the past I've usually used hard wheat. I just purchased some pastry wheat along with oat groats and kumat.

Would these make for a nice multi grain bread- using my regular recipe?

I guess I'm wandering if the different flours will alter the consistancy too much.

How about if I use the wheat flour as usual (a 1/3 of the flour) and instead of white use the kumat (about 2/3 of the flour)?

I'd like to experiment mixing different grains. So if you can recommend some good combinations I'd appreciate it. The farm store where I get it had different grains so I don't have to stick with just these three.

Oh yeah... I got some yellow popcorn to grind into cornmeal. I plan to try corn mush for breakfast tomorrow! The kids are curious about eating this!

Could I mix the corn flour into yeast bread recipes without any problems? I thought it might give a nice flavor.

TIA for your suggestions!

You can add the kamut ,but add some of the pastry flour as well. My bread recipe is 8 cups of hard white and 3 cups soft white. I add mixed grains to make up the 8 cups of hard white, but always use the soft white. It gives it a nice fluff
