I have some feral hog out on the counter thawing right now. I haven't had store-bought pig in a long time. Feral hogs, venison, and squirrel make up most of the meat that I eat.

I had a baking question for you. I haven’t been able to get my bread to raise right for ages, even though I used to bake bread all the time. I had assumed it was because I couldn’t do much kneading anymore with my bad shoulder, but last weekend I managed to knead some dough for dinner rolls, and they still never raised. The yeast proofed just fine, and the room was the right temperature. What could I be doing wrong?

I did go online and try to figure it out, and came across hundreds of stories of additives in the flour that made it not raise right. Could that be what’s going on here? And if so, how do I find flour without additives without actually milling it myself?
