Caption: and Rhubarb Jam Homemade Rye Bread
Caption: What better way to start the new year than by making a homemade loaf of glorious bread? Rye bread is definitely one of my favorites…slathered with homemade rhubarb jam, the unusual flavor combination is utterly delightful.
Caption: Rye Bread
Ingredients:
4 1/2 cups organic all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups organic dark rye flour
2 teaspoons yeast + 1/2 cup filtered water (bath water temp)
2 teaspoons rose salt
2 1/2 cups filtered water
2 tablespoons organic sugar
2 tablespoons organic dried caraway seeds
Directions:
Place yeast in a bowl with 1/2 cup filtered water. Stir and let sit for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, place flour and salt in a large bowl. Stir. Add the yeast mixture to the flour mixture. Mix. Begin to slowly add the water until combined. Fold in the sugar and caraway seeds. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest for about 8 hours, or overnight…
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place a 5.5 quart enameled cast iron french oven in the stove with the lid on for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, place the dough on a heavily floured surface (the dough is super sticky so be sure to also flour your hands before handling) and form into a ball. Cover and let rest while the french oven is preheating. Then, place the dough in the french oven and cover with the lid. Bake for 30 minutes. Remove the lid and bake for an additional 15 minutes. Let cool slightly. Store in a paper bag or devour immediately.
