You do soak the flour for pancakes, but it gets quite pasty which may be why she's tweaked the pancake recipe (above) and soaks only half the flour overnight. I haven't made bread with soaked flour, but it should be delicious. By the way -- the recipe for "No Knead Bread" (you can google it)that appeared in the New York Times a few months ago is amazing, very tweakable (my cousin makes it with whole wheat flour and walnuts -- it turns a beautiful purple) and ferments. It takes time, but is indeed worth it. We have been cooking from Nourishing Traditions and love the results from soaking the nuts and grains.

I have been baking bread with whole wheat for years. After reading the section on grains, I am wondering if I need to soak the wheat flour. I buy organic wheat flour - don't have a mill so I cannot grind it myself - would I only be soaking the wheat berries if I could grind them or even flour? How can one soak flour? Thank you, Liz Hello:
