Ingredients
- Ingredients
- 500 grams Whole Grain Rye Flour
- 500 grams Whole wheat flour
- 1 cube fresh Yeast 42 g (approximately 1.5 ounces)
- 1 pinch sugar
- 500 milliliters lukewarm water
- 1 packet pre-packaged Whole Wheat Sourdough Starter 150 g (approximately 5 ounces)
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 Tbsps Caraway (or anise seeds)
Preparation steps
Step 1
Gather all of the ingredients and ensure that the water is lukewarm.
Step 2
Combine the flours in a large bowl and make a well in the center. Crumble the yeast into the well and sprinkle with sugar.
Step 3
Pour about 150 ml (approximately 2/3 cup) of lukewarm water into the well and mix with some of the flour to form a thick paste.
Step 4
Cover and let stand for about 15 minutes in a warm place.
Step 5
Add the sourdough starter and remaining water to the bowl and mix with the dough hook attachment of a stand mixer or by hand.
If kneading the dough by hand, knead vigorously on a floured surface for 5-10 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic. Return to the bowl, cover and let rise for about 1 1/2 hours, until doubled in volume.
Step 6
Transfer the dough to a floured surface again and knead in the salt and caraway (or anise) seeds.
Step 7
From the dough into a loaf, sprinkle with a bit of flour and let rise again for about 30 minutes.
Step 8 and 9
Brush the surface of the dough with water and prick several times with a fork. Let stand for another 15 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 220°C (approximately 425°F).
Place the loaf on an oiled baking sheet and lightly dust the surface with flour.
Step 10
Transfer the loaf to the oven and place a heatproof bowl of hot water on the bottom shelf of the oven. Bake for 15 minutes then lower the heat to 180°C (approximately 350°F) and bake for 1 hour.
Remove the bread from the oven and let cool.
