"A man who was fond of wine was offered some grapes at dessert after dinner. "Much obliged," said he, pushing the plate aside; "I am not accustomed to take my wine in pills."--Jean Antheleme Brillat-Savarin, The Physiology of Taste

Directions:
Stir honey into 1 cup hot water; add rounded tablespoon yeast and let rise 1-inch or more (foam head). Stir with wire whip. Set aside. In another mixing bowl, add a cup of hot water. Add salt and oil; stir until dissolved. Add to yeast mixture and stir together. Add bran flakes and wheat germ and stir. Add whole wheat flour. Stir. Add 1 cup white bread flour, stir. Sift 3 1/2 cups additional white bread flour and add to bowl. Stir with wooden spoon (stick), then with hands until bowl is clean. Take from bowl and knead until smooth (use a little flour). Grease metal pan and place dough in pan. Set in warm place (you can heat the oven and then turn off before placing dough inside or you can set dough in a warm corner on the counter) and allow to rise until double. Punch down, take out of pan and knead again. Place under a bowl for 15 minutes.

Grease pans. Divide dough into 3 loaves. Knead each loaf, then roll with rolling pin into oblong shape. Roll up each oblong dough, grease top and punch in pan and flatten out. Put back in oven to rise double again (1 hour).

Bake at 350º F. if using a silver stone pan, or 375º F. for regular pans. It is ready when you tap with fingers and it sounds hollow.
