Cleaner and more familiar, without the faint graininess some gluten-free blends carry. Long-fermented recipes gain complexity, since wheat develops more flavor over a slow rise than starch-based blends do.

Pro Tips

·Cut the liquid by roughly 15-20%, since gluten-free blends are thirstier than wheat flour
·Skip any xanthan gum or psyllium the recipe calls for; wheat brings its own structure
·The dough will need kneading, which most gluten-free bread recipes omit entirely
·Rise times shorten noticeably, so watch the dough rather than the clock
