REAL NY JEWISH RYE BREAD

Steps:

• Place bread flour, rye flour, potato flakes, caraway seeds, demarara sugar, yeast, and sea salt in the bowl of a large stand mixer. Turn mixer to low and thoroughly mix dry ingredients. Beat warm water, canola oil, and pickle juice into dry ingredients. Fit dough hook onto mixer and beat until dough is rough and shaggy-looking.
• Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let rest for exactly 30 minutes. Remove plastic wrap and knead dough in stand mixer with dough hook until smooth, firm, and only slightly sticky, 6 to 8 minutes. Turn dough onto a floured work surface and knead until smooth, 1 to 2 more minutes.
• Form dough into a ball, place dough into an oiled bowl, and turn dough around several times in bowl to coat with oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, set into a warm place, and let rise until nearly double, about 1 hour.
• Grease a 5x9-inch loaf pan. Turn dough onto a lightly oiled surface, shape into a log, and place into prepared loaf pan. Cover with a cloth kitchen towel and let rise until top of dough has risen slightly over top of pan, 60 to 90 minutes.
• Place rack in middle of oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake loaf until golden brown and cooked through, about 35 minutes. The internal temperature of the bread should be 190 degrees F (90 degrees C). If loaf browns too quickly, cover loosely with a tent of aluminum foil with shiny side out. Remove from pan and cool on wire rack.

BROA (PORTUGUESE CORNBREAD)

Steps:

• Heat milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to bubble. Whisk in butter and 2 teaspoons sugar. Add cornmeal and whisk until mixture reaches a thick, sauce-like consistency. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
• In the meantime, sprinkle yeast and a pinch of sugar over warm water. Stir and let stand until yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 5 minutes.
• Combine flour and salt in the bowl of a stand mixture fitted with the dough hook. Add the yeast mixture and mix on low speed. Slowly pour in the milk mixture. Knead into a slightly dense dough. Remove from the bowl and roll into a ball.
• Grease the sides of a bowl or pot with olive oil and add the dough. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 2 hours.
• Punch dough down and roll into 2 boules, or flat-bottomed balls. Place boules on a baking sheet lined with a silicone mat. Sprinkle tops with flour and cover with plastic wrap again. Let rise until puffy, about 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Fill an oven-proof pot with 4 to 5 cups water and place on the bottom rack of the preheating oven.
• Cut 4 shallow slits into the tops of the puffed bread boules in a cross pattern, 2 parallel lines up and 2 across.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Spritz tops with water from a spray bottle. Reduce oven temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) and continue baking until crusts are a deep brown, about 20 minutes. Remove breads from the pan and let cool for 20 minutes.

GERMAN RYE BREAD

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast in warm water.
• In a large bowl combine milk, sugar, and salt. Use a mixer to beat in molasses, butter, yeast mixture, and 1 cup of rye flour.
• Use a wooden spoon to mix in the remaining rye flour. Add white flour by stirring until the dough is stiff enough to knead.
• Knead 5 to 10 minutes, adding flour as needed. If the dough sticks to your hands or the board add more flour.
• Cover dough and let rise 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until double.
• Punch down dough and divide to form two round loaves. Let loaves rise on a greased baking sheet until double, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Bake for 30 to 35 minutes.

CORN RYE BREAD

Steps:

• The starter must be made 48-72 hours in advance. Combine yeast and 1 c tepid water. Beat in 1 c rye flour. Add onion, cover with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature for 24 hours. Remove onion. Beat in remaining water and rye flour. Cover and let stand at room temperature another 24 hours. It may be used at this point, or refrigerated up to another 24 hours.
• Combine 1/4 c warm water, yeast and sugar. Let stand 10 minutes until foamy.
• In work bowl of a heavy-duty mixer, dissolve salt in remaining warm water. Stir down sourdough starter and remove 1/2 cup (see head note). Mix remaining starter into salt water, then add yeast mixture. Add high-gluten flour and 1 c all-purpose flour; if using, add caraway seeds. Mix to form a soft dough.
• Add remaining flour and knead until dough is soft and slightly sticky (either in the mixer or by hand). Do not overknead; the dough should not be very elastic. Form into a ball and place in an ungreased bowl. Cover and let stand at room temperature until doubled in size, about 90 minutes.
• Punch down, knead briefly and let stand 15 minutes. Form into a 12" oval, turning the edges in toward the center to form a smooth outer surface. Pinch the seam to seal and place seam-side down on a baking sheet coated with cornmeal. Cover with a damp towel and let rise until almost double, about 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place quarry tiles or baking stone in top 1/3 of oven, and an empty roasting pan in the bottom third. Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Beat egg white with water and brush over surface of loaf. Slash loaf with a very sharp knife 2 or 3 times. Sprinkle with additional caraway seeds if desired. Place loaf on tiles and toss 4 cups of ice cubes into the hot roasting pan. Bake 30 minutes. Brush loaf with more egg white glaze and bake another 20-30 minutes.

Bake until lightly brown, about 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on a rack.

RYE BREAD - THE REAL STUFF

Steps:

• This is the way to make a real rye bread (as opposed to a bread containing rye flour).
• I have deliberately not given any measures.
• Firstly, I don't know, secondly, you can't make a proper bread if you simply measure up things and mix them together.
• Instead you need to produce a dough that feels right- don't worry, it's easy.
• First make a sour dough starter.
• Simply mix some flour- one or two cups- with water to make a thick, but rather runny paste.
• Put salt on top to stop it moulding, put a lid on and place it in a nice, warm place, eg on a radiator.
• Note: This procedure won't succeed if there are no natural yeasts and acid bacteria in the flour or the air.
• I have never had a problem, but who knows how things are where you live.
• After a few days it will be foaming and have a sour smell; I personally find the smell rather foul, but that's the way it should be, as long as it is sour and not turning any strange colour or getting mouldy.
• When the starter is ready, mix it with some lukewarm water.
• If you made your starter with one cup of flour, use~1 pint of water now.
• Add some salt.
• At this point you can add some 'roughage' too, like soaked, whole rye kernels or whatever.
• As the last step begin adding rye flour while mixing until the dough is firm enough to hand-knead.
• Tip it out on a floured table and continue adding flour and kneading until you feel the dough is 'right': when it doesn't stick too much to everything.
• Put it in a baking tin and leave it to rise; this can take quite a long time, maybe 8 hours.
• If you let it rise too long, it can turn very sour, but I usually leave for 4- 8 hours.
• Finally bake it at perhaps 125- 150 degrees Centigrade- haven't got a clue what it is in Fahrenheit, but it's not very warm.
• It should bake for at least 2 hours and the door should not be fully closed.
• It is a good idea to spray the bread with water from time to time to ensure that the crust doesn't separate from the rest of the bread.
• This bread will often be very sticky inside when it is fresh.
• The best things to do about it (in my opinion) is to allow the bread to settle- dry out a bit, basically- for a day or two.
• Some people add some wheat flour to the recipe, but that's cheating if you ask me.
• One thing that gives this bread a very nice taste is malt.
• Another thing: horses are crazy about rye bread!

DELI-STYLE RYE - NO KNEADING KNEADED!

Steps:

• MIXING AND STORING THE DOUGH: Mix the yeast, salt and caraway seeds with the water in a 5-quart bowl or lidded (not airtight) food container.
• Mix in the remaining dry ingredients without kneading, using a spoon, or, if you have access, a 14-cup capacity food processor (with dough attachment) or a heavy-duty stand mixer (with dough hook). If you're not using a machine, you may need to use wet hands to incorporate the last bit of flour.
• Cover (not airtight), and allow to rest at room temperature until the dough rises and collapses (or flattens on top) approximately 2 hours.
• The dough can be used immediately after the initial rise, though it is easier to handle with cold. Refrigerate in a lidded (again, not airtight) container and use over the next 14 days.
• ON BAKING DAY, dust the surface of the refrigerated dough with flour and cut off a 1-pound (grapefruit-sized) piece. Dust the piece with more flour and quickly shape it into a ball by stretching the surface of the dough around to the bottom on all four sides, rotating the ball a quarter-turn as you go. This should take no longer than 30 seconds max. You want to handle the dough as little as possible during this step. elongate the ball into an oval-shaped loaf. Allow to rest and rise on a cornmeal-covered pizza peel for 40 minutes.
• TWENTY MINUTES BEFORE BAKING TIME: preheat the oven to 450F, with a baking stone placed on the middle rack. Place an empty broiler tray on any other shelf that won't interfere with the rising bread.
• MAKING THE CORN WASH: Using a fork, blend 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch with a small amount of water to form a paste. Add 1/2 cup water and whisk with the fork. Microwave or boil until mixture appears glassy, about 30 to 60 seconds on high. It will keep in the refrigerator for 2 weeks.
• Using a pastry brush, paint the top crust with cornstarch wash and then sprinkle with additional caraway seeds. Slash with deep parallel cuts across the loaf using a serrated bread knife.
• Slide the loaf directly onto the hot stone. Pour 1 cup of hot tap water (do not boil) into the broiler tray and quickly close the oven door. Bake for about 30 minutes or until deeply browned and firm. Smaller or larger loaves will require adjustments in backing time.
• Allow to cool before slicing or eating, but when you do -- O'M'GAWD!

BROA DE MILHO (PORTUGUESE CORN AND RYE BREAD)

Steps:

• ⁠Hydrate the corn flour with the boiling water, 1 hour, covered.⁠
• Thoroughly mix all of the ingredients together (hydrated corn flour, additional water, rye flour, all purpose flour, sourdough starter and salt).⁠
• Cover and let the dough ferment until it's aerated and domed (~6.5 hours in a 70F room). You won't see the dough double, but it will become domed and aerated. ⁠
• Preheat your oven to 400F with a stone/steel/baking sheet in it.⁠
• Divide the dough in two, and place half in a floured bowl. Flour the top of the dough. ⁠
• Flip and swirl the dough in the bowl until you have a smooth loaf. ⁠
• Slide the dough onto a floured peel or parchment and place it in the oven on the hot stone. ⁠
• Repeat with the second half of the dough.⁠
• Bake the loaves at 400F for 1 hour.⁠
• The crust will be crunchy and the inside temperature should be over 205F.

COUNTRY RAISIN RYE BREAD

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine 1 cup whole wheat flour, 1 cup rye flour, yeast and salt. In a saucepan, heat water, 1/2 cup oil, molasses and honey to 120°-130°. Add to dry ingredients; stir just until moistened. Stir in remaining whole wheat and rye flours and enough all-purpose flour to form a medium stiff dough., Turn onto a floured surface; sprinkle with raisins. Knead until smooth and elastic, about 8-10 minutes. Grease a bowl with the remaining oil. Place dough in a bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1-1/2 hours., Punch dough down; turn onto a lightly floured surface. Divide into four pieces; shape each into a round loaf. Place 4 in. apart on two baking sheets coated with cooking spray. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes. , Bake at 325° for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown.
