I started on this recipe tonight from the new complete book of breads. Pg 262-264
I'm grinding the flours in my Mockmill. Got the sponge mixed and timed it to be ready to mix in the dough around 6am. I'll post pics tomorrow.
I hope this one turns out like all of his other recipes so far- fantastic.
Here are those ready to go. Just waiting for the cornmeal mix to cool. Gathering the other ingredients. About to start milling my rye.
Bernie does it again. Just like described in his recipe, this dough shaped right up so to speak. Just covered it for the rise.
After three hours I'll divide and shape up two boules. Rest another hour. Then bake on the stone for an hour @ 375 f.
They shaped up nicely. Second rise going on now. After an hour, I'll stickem in the oven on the stone.
Nice loaves! Can't wait to see the outcome. Which book of his?
The 30th anniversary edition of the new book of breads.
Here's the finished loaf fresh from oven. It smells great. These are lighter colored than your usual pumpernickel. I'll slice it tomorrow and update a crumb shot then.
Here's both. My score opened deep.
I went ahead and sliced one. Tastes great. Has that nutty, rich, tangy flavor.
Here's my sandwich.. with Russian dressing.
