Good to the Grain: Baking with Whole-Grain Flours

I am noticing with a number of recipes in this cookbook that the amount of salt required is too high, at least for my kind of salt and my taste. The author always specifies kosher salt, but the brands she uses are not available where I live so I use coarse sea salt (Baleine brand). Either this salt is much saltier than her brand, or my taste buds are accustomed to much less salt. Either way, I am now halving all her recommendations for salt, and that is yielding much better results.
