I wanna try! That looks delicious.
mixed flour, hmm? I always do 100% wholemeal rye.
Once when I ran out of rye, I used 50% fermented/leavened rye, 50% wheat (I don't remember the kind), and the result was of "edible" category. Dry and weird.
What's your trick to make it good?
I love massive loaves, I don't know what it is, but it's just so much fun
For wheat dough that may be true. This is just easy enough for me to handle that I do it at all.
I love rye bread. I started with 100% rye sourdough, which is incredibly sticky, especially if it's even slightly over hydrated, and has virtually no gluten, so you can only bake it in a loaf pan. 40% spelt or wheat makes it just a little more well behaved.
The texture looks really good.
Have you ever tried 100% rye? If you get the amount of salt just right, nothing can beat it.
Thanks! I love 100% rye sourdough breads, but I hate making them. I'm not sure I get the hydration right. My dough always ends up very sticky and just an utter pain to get out of the kitchen machine and into the loaf pan.
