Bread Revolution Rise up and Bake

Multi-grain burger buns : page 68

These are delicious multi grain buns. I used purple barley and a rice blend for the cooked grains. I mixed and proved the dough in the bread machine; I had to add 1-2 tablespoons extra water, used red fife for the wholegrain flour, and used dry yeast. I reduced the salt to about 12-13g since I like my salt in breads just a bit over 2%, and that was plenty for my taste. Baked at lower temp than required but I will change that next time as I had to increase bake time. Took about 4 hrs start to finish. Definitely will repeat.
