This recipe, the product of long experimentation, produces a dense and zesty loaf. Warning: highly addictive (in the best way)!

Ingredients

1 ½ cups pickle juice
½ cup water
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
¾ teaspoon salt
3 ½ tablespoons white sugar
½ cup wheat germ
¾ cup rolled oats
1 ¼ cups whole wheat flour
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon active dry yeast

Directions

Put dill pickle juice, water, vegetable oil, salt, white sugar, wheat germ, oats, whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, and yeast, respectively, in the pan of a bread machine.
Select Sandwich and Three-Pound Loaf settings; press Start. Cycle should take about 3 hours 10 minutes to complete.
Remove loaf from bread pan and allow to cool on wire rack at least 20 minutes before slicing.

Cook's Notes:

'Pickle juice' means the juice from a jar of pickles. The proportion of pickle juice to water can be varied as desired, so long as the total liquid is 2 cups.

Similarly for the dry ingredients: 3 cups white flour, 1 cup whole-wheat flour, and 1 1/2 cups of any flour substitute will work well as long as the total is 5 1/2 cups.

If your bread machine doesn't have 'sandwich' and 'three-pound' settings, you'll have to experiment with your settings.
