Sourdough Rye Bread With Caraway image

This is a strongly flavored rye bread, like from an "old country" bakery. I was forced to experiment and find a recipe when my favorite ethnic bakery closed and I could no longer buy my favorite sourdough rye bread. I hope I've done it justice. Start the day before you want the bread -- the sour flavor develops best if allowed a slow rise in the refrigerator.

Time 1h15m

Yield 2 loaves, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup sourdough starter, proofed
1 cup warm water
1 1/2 cups rye flour
3 cups bread flour
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons caraway seeds
2 tablespoons canola oil, for oiling the bowl

Steps:

  • Mix sourdough starter with warm water with a whisk until thoroughly combined.
  • Add rye flour a little bit at a time, incorporating well before each addition.
  • Add bread flour in the same way, first in the mixing bowl and then turned out on to a floured surface while kneading, until you get a uniformly elastic ball of dough that is tacky but not sticky. This may take about 10 minutes.
  • Make a hole into the center of the dough and add the salt and caraway seed, and continue kneading another 5 minutes or so, until the seeds are dispersed throughout the bread dough.
  • Coat a bowl with a thin layer of canola oil, add the dough and roll the dough around until all sides are covered with oil. Cover well, and refrigerate for 24 hours.
  • Punch down dough, cut in half and form loaves.
  • Leave out on a warm counter, covered, to rise until doubled in size. The length of time will depend on the vigor of your starter, but this may take a few hours.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Bake for 30 - 35 minutes, bread will appear lightly browned.
  • Cool on racks.
  • Freezes well.

I'm not a fan of caraway seeds, so I left them out of the recipe. The bread still turned out great!
