Marbled toast

Taking it easy and testing some yeasted recipes. This one is from KAF website https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/marble-rye-recipe

Slight modifications:

Less caraway. 1 tablespoon is just to assertive 🙂

Instead of potato flour I used small boiled and mashed potato (68g)

Didn't use milk powder, instead I added 4 heaping tablespoons of plant based kefir (from homemade soy milk) 

I made dark and light doughs separately.

As I didn't adjust hydration after my changes,  the doughs turned out very soft and sticky, but still not too difficult to handle.  

Lovely bread 😋😋😋

That crumb is unbelievable nice, something I need to stride for with my Pullman loafs (I only made two so far). Can you describe your process in detail or did you follow exactly as described from KA? Thanks for sharing it with us.

I measured my dry ingredients (without cocoa and yeast) and then divided them in two bowls, by weight. To each bowl I added 1¼ teaspoon dry yeast. To one bowl I added 2 tablespoons of cocoa and 2 tablespoons instant coffee powder and to the other 4 tablespoons rye flour. I measured liquid, which was the amount of water as per recipe, 68g boiled potato, mashed, and 4 heaping tablespoon of fresh soy kefir. Then I divided it by weight and mixed with dry ingredients. The rest went as per recipe. Really nice and quick bread to make, and quite tasty,  too
