Ingredients
- Ingredients
- 1 lb Whole wheat flour
- 4 ozs Whole Grain Rye Flour
- 9 ozs Sourdough (preferably homemade)
- 1 ½ tsps salt
- 1 pinch Dry yeast
- ½ Tbsp Canola oil
Kitchen utensils
Preparation steps

In a large mixing bowl, mix together 17.5 ounces wheat flour, the rye flour, sourdough starter, salt and dried yeast with 1 1/4 cups of water. Knead with the dough hook of a hand mixer (or in a food processor) until the consistency of firm dough.

Cover the dough with a kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place until dough has approximately doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.

Place remaining wheat flour on a work surfacem then place dough on flour and gradually knead flour into dough with your hands. Shape the dough into a log, about 30 cm (approximately 12 inches) long.

Grease a 12-inch loaf pan with the oil and place the dough in pan. Make several slashes in the top of the dough with a sharp knife and sprinkle 2 tablespoons of water over the top. Bake in a preheated oven at 125°F or lowest setting for 30 minutes.

Remove the bread from the oven and set aside carefully so that the dough does not collapse. Raise oven to 475°F. Slide the bread back into the oven directly onto second rack from the botttom. Also place an oven-proof container with about 1 cup of water on the bottom rack. Bake for 10 minutes, then lower the temperature to 400°F and bake until golden brown and hollow-sounding when tapped on the bottom, another 40-50 minutes.

Let the bread cool in the pan on a wire rack for about 30 minutes before removing from pan and letting cool completely on rack.
