In Doy’s garden

Log it in Doydum and a row of wheat sprouts in today’s bed in front of Doy’s house.

Bread made with whole wheat flour, which keeps the bran and germ of the grain and gives a darker crumb and nuttier taste than white bread. It is sold sliced in packs and as loaves at most Turkish bakeries.

Many brown loaves mix whole wheat with white flour, seeds or added fat, so the label tells you more than the colour.
