Categories     Yeast Breads

Time P1DT7h

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/8 teaspoon instant yeast
1 cup bread flour
1/3 cup cool water
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 cup rye flour
1/2 cup pumpernickel flour
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 cup lukewarm water
2 teaspoons instant yeast
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 cup currants or 1 cup raisins

Steps:

  • BIGA:.
  • Make the biga by stirring together the yeast, flour, and water. The dough will be very stiff and dry. Place it in a lightly greased bowl, cover it, and let it rest at room temperature overnight.
  • DOUGH:.
  • Next day, combine the biga with the remaining ingredients (except the pecans and fruit) in a large mixing bowl, or in the bowl of an electric mixer, mixing to form a shaggy, sticky dough. Knead the dough until smooth (even though it's smooth, it'll still be very sticky), then place it in a lightly greased bowl and let it rest for 1 hour; it will become quite puffy, though it may not double in bulk.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly greased work surface, gently deflate it, and knead in the nuts and fruit. Shape the dough into a slightly flattened ball and place it on a greased sheet pan, or into a greased 9" round cake pan. Cover the pan with a proof cover or some lightly greased plastic wrap. Let the loaf rise for about 90 minutes or until puffy. PREFERRED 2nd RISE METHOD: For the second rise, let rise for 1 hour then put into the refrigerator and bake the next day or so. The bread gets better texture and taste from a slow cool rise. (The prep time follows the Preferred Method.).
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F Bake the bread for about 50 to 55 minutes (tenting it lightly for the final 15 minutes), until its interior registers 190°F to 195°F on an instant-read thermometer. Remove the bread from the oven and cool it on rack.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 small wheel of Brie or Camembert (about 9 ounces)
1/2 cup pecan pieces
3 tablespoons light-brown sugar
3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
crackers or sliced baguette, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place cheese on a rimmed baking sheet; bake until softened, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a serving plate; cool about 20 minutes.
  • While cheese cools, place nuts on a clean baking sheet; bake until toasted and fragrant, 7 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle nuts over cheese.
  • In a small saucepan, combine sugar and maple syrup. Bring to a boil over medium heat; simmer until foamy, 1 to 2 minutes. Drizzle warm sauce over slightly cooled cheese and nuts; serve with crackers or baguette.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use a high-quality rye flour. Whole rye flour will produce a more rustic bread with a stronger flavor, while all-purpose rye flour will produce a lighter bread with a milder flavor.
  • Be sure to soak the raisins in hot water before adding them to the dough. This will help to plump them up and prevent them from becoming dry and chewy.
  • If you don't have any buttermilk on hand, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Be careful not to over-knead the dough. Over-kneading will make the bread tough.
  • Let the bread rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will take about 1 hour.
  • Bake the bread in a preheated oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving.

Conclusion:

Pecan Raisin Rye Bread is a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is perfect for sandwiches, toast, or simply spreading with butter and jam.
