| 1. ----ForBread Machine----. | 2. Add all ingredients except cornmeal to bread machine pan in the order recommended by your machine's manufacturer. | 3. Select dough cycle and start machine. | 4. ----ConventionalMethod----. | 5. In large bowl, dissolve yeast, brown sugar, and ginger in warm water. | 6. Let stand 5 minutes until yeast foams. | 7. Add salt and bread flour; beat well. | 8. Stir in whole wheat flour to make a stiff dough. | 9. Turn out onto lightly floured board and knead 10 minutes or until dough is springy, smooth and satiny. | 10. Wash bowl, grease it, and add dough to bowl; turn over to grease top. | 11. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour. | 12. ----Shapingand Baking----. | 13. Lightly oil or grease a 14x17" baking sheet and sprinkle with cornmeal; set aside. | 14. Punch down the dough. | 15. Divide in half and, on a lightly floured surface, shape into long loaves, rolling each piece first into a 5x12" rectangle, then rolling each up along the long side to make a long, narrow loaf. | 16. Pinch edges to seal, and taper ends. | 17. Place loaves, seam side down, on prepared baking sheet. | 18. Let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes. | 19. Make 4-5 slashes across each loaf with sharp knife or razor blade. | 20. Brush each loaf with water and sprinkle with whole wheat flour. | 21. Bake in a preheated 400 degree F oven for 15-20 minutes, until loaves are browned and crisp. | 22. Remove to a wire rack to cool completely. | 23. NOTE: I also use a spray bottle filled with water and spray the loaves and oven walls once or twice at 5-minute intervals at the beginning of baking. | 24. You could also make this into one large oblong loaf or a round loaf, but baking time would need to be increased. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
