thank you! i'm going well, with my food diary. CalorieKing is good. its a website i joined thats geared for Australian foods. i think i'm going to try your bread, in my bread maker. and see what happens. 5g yeast to 350-400g flour stuff usually rises quite a bit in my bread maker.
So we will see. I love fiddling with this. and i need a low GI bread i can use with soup etc. my fat intake as a % of what i eat is a little too high for my comfort.
The seeds make it very heavy, so it shouldn't rise too much. I'm not good at guestimating yeast, but I'm pretty sure I used 1 teaspoon, which is about 5 ml. I'll be interested to hear how it goes.
My favourite low GI lunch thing at present is a tuscan tuna salad - tuna, tomatoes, capsicum, chives, and a mix of italian tinned beans, with a nice vinegary dressing. No lettuce, so you can dress it the night before and it isn't soggy by lunch, and the beans give you carbohydrate, so you don't have to come up with a bread accompaniment.
our bread maker has you put the dough ingredients in first, goes through one kneading and rising, and then punches down, add seeds/fruit etc, and then kneads again before cooking.
*nods* I saw that when I got to the individual entry page to investigate and comment; it's just forced the text to black, so it didn't show against the black background of my layout.
