    This has wonderful flavor. I used sorghum syrup instead of sugar as that was what my grandmother used. It didn't rise as much as I would have liked even though I left it for several hours . - 9/9/13

    What is wheat gluten, what is the purpose of/for it in the recipe? I don't have any of that and do not want to buy it if the bread can be made without it. I have a VERY SMALL kitchen and not a lot of storage space. - 11/11/09
