Preparation steps
1.
In a bowl, mix the rye and the flour with the dried yeast. Add 175 ml lukewarm water and the sourdough.

Knead thoroughly on a floured work surface, then cover and rest for around 1 hour.
2.
Line a baking tray with grease-proof paper. Knead the dough again, form into an oblong loaf and place on the baking tray. Cover and leave to rest for a further 45 minutes.
3.
Meanwhile, heat the oven to 200°C (180° fan) | 400F | gas 6.
4.
Brush the dough with the remaining oil and bake for around 1 hour. Remove and leave to cool before serving or storing.
