RUSSIAN BLACK BREAD

Steps:

• Combine flours. In a large bowl, thoroughly mix 2 1/3 cups flour mixture, sugar, salt, cereal, caraway seed, coffee powder, onion powder, fennel seed and undissolved yeast.
• In a sauce pan combine 2 1/2 cups water, vinegar, molasses, chocolate and butter.
• Heat liquid mixture over low heat until liquids are very warm (120°-130°F), butter and chocolate do not have to be melted.
• Gradually add heated liquid mixture to dry ingredients and beat (with electric mixer) for 2 minutes at medium speed, scraping bowl occasionally. Add 1/2 cup flour mixture. Beat at high speed for 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Stir in enough additional flour mixture to make a soft dough. Turn dough on to a lightly floured board. Cover dough and let rest for 15 minutes.
• Knead dough until smooth and elastic (about 10-15 minutes), dough may be sticky. Place dough in a greased bowl, turning dough to grease the top. Cover bowl and place in a warm, draft free place to rise until doubled in bulk (about 1 hour).
• Punch dough down; turn out onto a lightly floured board. Divide dough in half. Shape each half into a ball, about 5 inches in diameter. Place each ball into the center of a greased 8-inch round cake pan. Cover; let rise in a warm, draft free place until doubled in bulk (about 1 hour). Bake at 350°F for 40-45 minutes, or until done.
• Meanwhile, combine cornstarch and cold water. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture stats to boil; continue cooking mixture for 1 minute stirring constantly.
• As soon as bread is baked, brush cornstarch mixture over top of loaves. Return bread to oven and bake 2-3 minutes longer, or until glaze is set. Remove loaves from pans and cool on wire racks.
• **I have made this recipe both"as is" and also omitting the fennel seeds and onion powder. Omitting the fennel seed and onion powder changes the flavor a bit, but it is still a very good bread.

• Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven for rolls, or 35 minutes for a loaf, or until the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.

BLACK RUSSIAN BREAD MACHINE LOAF

Steps:

• 1. Put the warm water into the bottom of the bread machine pan. Add molasses, vinegar, oil, and salt.
• 2. Stir together flours, bran, cocoa, seeds, espresso powder, and onion powder. Add flour mixture on top of liquid ingredients in bread machine pan.
• 3. Make a well in the top of the flour mixture and place yeast in the well. Set bread machine for whole grain setting, and operate according to manufacturer's directions. Allow to cool well before slicing.
• 4. If you would like to shape the traditional large round loaf, set the bread machine for dough only. When cycle is complete, turn dough onto a well-greased surface and coat all sides with oil. Knead a couple of times and shape into a ball. Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease the paper. Sprinkle with a mixture of cornmeal and whole wheat flour, or just plain cornmeal. Place ball of dough on the surface and flatten slightly to shape into a round loaf. Cover with plastic wrap or an inverted bowl and let sit in a warm place to rise until doubled, about 45-60 minutes. Twenty minutes prior to baking, preheat oven to 350°F. Using a sharp serrated knife, slash the top of the loaf with an "X" no more than 1/4" deep. Place the baking sheet on the center rack of the oven and bake for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the loaf is crusty and sounds hollow when tapped with your finger. Transfer the loaf to a cooling rack and cool completely before slicing.
