 Ingredients List

  • 3/4 c Water
  • 1/3 c Brown sugar

 Directions


1 ts Sugar; in
1/2 c Warm water
1 pk Active dry yeast


1 c White flour
1 1/4 c Light rye flour


1 c White flour; (1 to 1 1/2)

Combine the first ingredients and heat to lukewarm. Meanwhile, dissolve the
yeast and sugar in the water. Let stand 10 min, keeping at a temp of about
80 degrees, then stir briskly with a fork. Add softened yeast to the
lukewarm liquid mixture. Stir in 1 cup white flour and the rye flour. Beat
well, then add the rest of the white flour.

and knead for 5 minutes. Form dough into a ball and place ina greased
bowl, grease the top slightly. Cover and let rise until 1 1/2 times the
original size (about 1 1/4 hour at 80 degrees). Punch down and form into a
smooth ball. Cover it and let it rest 10 min. Shape into a cylinder which
is about 14 inches long, tapering the ends slightly. Place on a greased
baking sheet and slash 4 or 5 times across the top. Grease slightly. Cover
and let rise until almost doubled in bulk (about 45 min at 80 degrees).
Bake in pre-heated 375 degree oven for 30-35 min. Eat and enjoy.
