KR3 said:I am trying hard to avoid bread and if I must eat bread I want to make
sure I eat bread that is good for me, no enriched flour or bleached
flour. My question is what is considered good healthy bread that has no
enriched or bleached flour?I called up my local deli and they told me that even their pumpernickel
have enriched flour.
My question would be why? "Enriching" is basically over processing flour
and then adding some vitamins back into it. You can get some of the
missing stuff, like bran, by using whole wheat. Another option is to treat
bread more as a condiment than as a source of nutrition. Mass produced
bread has some preservatives in it. Patronize your local bakery and get
bread that is not full of preservatives.
Another option is to make it yourself.
