Durum Bread, Part 1

I really love homemade bread.  Unfortunately, most breads are high in carbohydrates.  So, my low carb diet doesn’t afford me this pleasure very often.

But then, I ran across a recipe which used Durum wheat flour to make a low carb bread.    Cool, all I need is some Durum wheat flour, water, yeast, salt and oil and I am good to go.  And, since I already had everything I needed except for the Durum wheat flour, I could practically taste that warm bread.

A quick check on line for Durum wheat flour showed me that King Arthur brand makes a Durum wheat flour.  And, since Meijer (regional grocery chain) carries a lot of King Arthur flour, I felt that they would certainly have Durum wheat flour.

When I got to the store, I discovered that there was over a dozen kinds of King Arthur flour, but no Durum wheat flour.  A further check of other brands revealed a wide selection of exotic flours but again no Durum wheat flour.  I did find some Durum semolina which caused me to recheck the selection again, but no luck.  Then it occurred to me to check the international foods isle.  In doing so, I found Durum couscous and Durum semolina, but no Durum flour.  Rats!  Time to check out Grand Rapids.

  2. Hello Web Admin, I noticed that your On-Page SEO is is missing a few factors, for one you do not use all three H tags in your post, also I notice that you are not using bold or italics properly in your SEO optimization. On-Page SEO means more now than ever since the new Google update: Panda. No longer are backlinks and simply pinging or sending out a RSS feed the key to getting Google PageRank or Alexa Rankings, You now NEED On-Page SEO. So what is good On-Page SEO?First your keyword must appear in the title.Then it must appear in the URL.You have to optimize your keyword and make sure that it has a nice keyword density of 3-5% in your article with relevant LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing). Then you should spread all H1,H2,H3 tags in your article.Your Keyword should appear in your first paragraph and in the last sentence of the page. You should have relevant usage of Bold and italics of your keyword.There should be one internal link to a page on your blog and you should have one image with an alt tag that has your keyword….wait there’s even more Now what if i told you there was a simple WordPress plugin that does all the On-Page SEO, and automatically for you? That’s right AUTOMATICALLY, just watch this 4minute video for more information at. Seo Plugin
