Black Rye Bread Abm Recipes

DARK RYE BREAD

Steps:

• Add the lukewarm water and yeast to the bowl of your mixer, stir and let it dissolve for 5 to 10 minutes.
• To the yeast mixture, add the molasses, cocoa powder, salt, caraway seeds, vegetable oil, rye flour, and about 2 1/2 cups of all purpose flour. Beat on medium speed until smooth. Add in remaining flour and keep mixing until it forms a firm dough (about 5 minutes), the dough should come clean from the side of the bowl.
• Spray a large bowl with cooking spray and place the dough in the bowl, spray the dough as well with cooking spray, cover with a clean damp kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let the dough rest until it doubles in size in a warm, draft free environment.
• Place a piece of parchment paper on your work surface. Sprinkle the cornmeal over the parchment paper. Punch down the dough and stretch it from the center to form a ball. Place the ball onto the prepared parchment paper. Let it rise for another 30 to 40 minutes until doubled in size. Once doubled, sprinkle a bit of flour over the top of the dough and cut a few slashes with a sharp knife.
• Preheat the oven to 425 F°. Place a shallow pan (not glass) on the lower rack in the oven. Transfer the bread with the parchment paper on a baking sheet or into a Dutch oven and place in the oven. Pour 1 cup of water in the shallow pan on the lower rack.
• Bake for 30 minutes until crusty and golden brown

LITHUANIAN BLACK RYE SOURDOUGH BREAD

Steps:

• See the Photo Gallery for images of the different steps.
• Day 1 Morning: Levain and Scald
• Mix the levain ingredients in a container with space for tripling, cover, and let ferment 8-12 hours. Aim for the long end of that range if your kitchen is cold e.g. low 60s.
• Toast your sprouted rye flour in a pan on the stove for a few minutes, stirring regularly, until it reaches about 176°F. Avoid overtoasting the flour as that could introduce bitterness to the flavor. Transfer it to a bowl and add the water that's been heated to 170°F. Cover and let the scald sit 8-12 hours while the levain is maturing. I stored the scald in a Thermos but this isn't necessary.
• Day 1 Evening: Opara
• In a bowl with room for tripling, mix together the levain, scald, and 150g rye flour. Cover and let sit overnight (8-12 hours).
• Day 2 Morning: Final Dough
• Combine the warm water (105°F), honey, sugar, and salt. Stir thoroughly until dissolved. In a bowl, mix together the this liquid, the opara, and flours. A stand mixer, danish dough whisk, or spatula work well.
• Prepare a sheet of parchment paper or a well-floured peel.
• Using damp hands, shape the rye dough into a tube that is about 10" x 4". Lay it on the parchment and further smooth the surface with damp fingers.
• Cover and let the dough proof for 2-3 hours until it has expanded and has a more bumpy looking surface and a few small holes from air popping through. I used an inverted bowl as a cover to avoid plastic wrap or a cloth sticking to the dough.
• Baking (Day 2 Late Morning)
• Preheat your oven and baking stone or steel (inverted baking sheet is okay too) to 350°F for at least 20 minutes.
• Prepare the glaze in a pan on the stove by whisking the corn or potato starch into the water (cold) and setting it to simmer until it has thickened. Set it aside to apply partway through the bake.
• With wet fingertips, smooth the surface of the dough and then load it into the oven.
• Immediately turn up the oven temperature to 445°F.
• Bake at:
• 445°F for 15 minutes
• 390°F for 25 minutes
• Remove the bread from the oven, apply the glaze to the surface of the bread with a pastry brush, then return the bread to the oven and continue baking at:
• 390°F for 5-10 minutes
• When the bread is finished baking, the internal temperature should be about 208°F. This is higher than The Rye Baker's 198°F but I believe it works for the moisture content.
• Let the bread rest for 24 hours before slicing. Store in a bag, bread box, or under an inverted bowl.

LIGHT RYE BREAD ROLLS (ABM)

Steps:

• Put all ingredients in bread maker in that order (unless your bread maker has a special requirement).
• Put on dough cycle.
• After dough cycle is complete, turn out onto a lightly floured surface.
• Roll into a log.
• Cut log into 6 equal sized pieces, make each piece into a roll.
• Place on a parchment sheet. I like to flatten them so they are more like hamburger rolls and better for sandwiches. Brush with oil. Cover with a cloth or piece of plastic wrap and allow to rise in a warmish place for 50-60 minutes or until doubled in size.
• Bake in a 200 degree oven for 12 minutes.
