My husband had a favorite sandwich shop that closed and the bread for the sandwiches was a sourdough type with a great texture. After much experimentation, I have come close to duplicating the bread's taste and texture. You can easily halve this recipe for only one loaf.-

I love the fact that this bread is made with whole wheat flour. It's so much healthier than white bread.
