SWEDISH RYE BREAD
Another blue ribbon bread. This bread is hearty, but not heavy, has a nice flavor, and makes great sandwiches. It is not as easy and light to knead as my white bread... maybe it builds muscles! We all love this bread, my mother especially loved it. This freezes well, if you want to save the second loaf for another time.

Steps:
- Put warm water into glass measuring (1) cup and check temperature with thermometer.
- Sprinkle yeast into warm water and let stand.
- In another glass measuring cup (2 cup) place water and Crisco.
- Microwave to hot, to melt fat.
- In a large bowl, combine sugar, molasses, and salt.
- Pour the Crisco water into bowl. (I usually pour it into, over the bowl, the 1/4 measuring cup I had the sugar, then the molasses inches To get all of the goodies into the bowl!).
- Stir until sugar dissolves.
- Cool to lukewarm (85°F It will probably cool to that as you dissolve the sugar, you just don't want to kill the yeast with too high a temp.).
- Stir in rye flour and beat well. (I use my electric hand mixer).
- Add yeast and caraway seed, and mix well.
- Stir in enough regular flour to make a soft dough.
- Cover with clean towel and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Generously sprinkle kneading surface with flour.
- Knead for 10 minutes.
- Place dough in lightly greased bowl and turn to coat all surfaces.
- Cover and let rise in warm draft free space, until doubled, about 2 hours.
- Punch down.
- Turn out onto lightly floured surface.
- Divide in two (I use a bread knife to slice the ball in half).
- Shape each piece into smooth ball, cover, and let rest 10 minutes (this is called proofing).
- Form each into two round loaves, and place on greased baking sheet.
- Cover and let rise in warm place (I put them in oven with the light on) until doubled again, about 1 1/2 hours.
- If you put them in oven to rise, make sure you take them out before lighting oven!
- Bake at 375°F for about 30 minutes.
- If loaves are getting too brown, you may cover with foil near the end of baking.
- Brush tops, when done, with butter for a soft crust.

NORDIC WHOLE-GRAIN RYE BREAD
Scandinavian rye breads look nothing like the slices that clamp together the sandwiches at your neighborhood deli in New York. Made from whole grains and naturally risen, they are chewy, fragrant and deliciously dark. With butter and cheese, or as the base for avocado toast, they are amazingly satisfying. The taste and texture are addictive, and many enthusiasts also appreciate that rye bread contains more fiber and less gluten than wheat. This recipe, with a small amount of yeast, is quicker than the truly ancient version, which takes at least three days. Don't worry if the dough seems runny and sticky: That is typical of rye bread, which needs lots of water to soften the grain.

Steps:
- On Day 1, make the starter: In a medium-size bowl, mix 3/4 cup warm water with the buttermilk or yogurt. Whisk flour and yeast together, add to the buttermilk mixture and use your hands to mix together until sticky and moist; add more warm water as needed. Cover tightly and set aside at cool room temperature overnight, or up to 24 hours.
- Also on Day 1, soak the grains: Mix 4 cups cold water with the rye berries (or meal) and sunflower seeds. Cover and set aside at cool room temperature overnight, or up to 24 hours.
- On Day 2, make the bread: Drain the soaked grains in a colander. Measure 35 ounces/1,000 grams of the grains and place in a deep bowl. Add 14 ounces/400 grams of the starter and mix well. (Any remaining starter can be saved to use with other bread recipes.) Add the flour, salt, malt (or molasses), yeast and 2 cups water. Mix dough firmly by hand to combine. The dough should be grainy, but quite runny and wet, almost like a thick batter. To achieve that texture, add cold water, 1/4 cup at a time, mixing after each addition. To test: When a walnut-size piece of dough smeared on the rim of the bowl slides slowly and smoothly down the inside, like a snail leaving a trail, the dough it is wet enough.
- Thickly butter 3 medium or 2 standard-size loaf pans. Divide the dough evenly among the pans, filling them about half full. Cover and let rise at room temperature until dough almost fills pans, about 2 hours. (Dough will not rise more during baking.)
- Heat oven to 450 degrees. Bake loaves for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 360 and bake until firm and glossy brown, 80 minutes to 2 hours more depending on size and moisture content of loaves. Let cool completely in the pans before turning out. Bread freezes well, and lasts for at least a week at room temperature, wrapped in paper.

Steps:
- Grind the caraway seeds, anise seed, and fennel seeds in a mortar and pestle or a spice or coffee grinder and place in a large bowl with the orange zest and milk.
- In a large warmed bowl, mix the yeast and molasses with 1/4 cup warm (105° to 115°F) water. Let stand about 5 minutes or until the yeast foams. Add the milk mixture, salt, and melted butter. Beat in the rye flour until smooth. Beat in enough bread flour to make a stiff dough. Cover the bowl and let the dough rest for 15 minutes.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured board. Knead, adding flour sparingly, until the dough is smooth and springy, about 10 minutes. If desired, you may mix and knead the dough in a heavy-duty mixer using the dough hook.
- Cover and let rise until doubled, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Punch the dough down. Turn it out onto a lightly oiled board. Knead to squeeze out air bubbles. Divide the dough into two pieces and shape into two oblong loaves. Grease two 9 × 5-inch loaf pans. Place the loaves in the pans smooth side up. Cover and let rise until almost doubled, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- Position the oven racks so that the top rack is in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to convection bake at 325°F. Bake on the center rack for 25 to 30 minutes or until a wooden skewer inserted into the bread comes out clean and dry. Remove the bread from the pans and cool on a wire rack.

Steps:
- Combine caraway seeds, fennel seeds, and anise seeds in a spice grinder; pulse until coarsely ground.
- Heat milk and butter in a deep saucepan, stirring occasionally, until butter melts and milk comes to a bare simmer, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and cool until milk registers 100 degrees F (38 degrees C) on an instant-read thermometer.
- Stir molasses and yeast into the milk mixture. Let stand until yeast is foamy, about 5 minutes. Add 2 cups all-purpose flour, rye flour, sea salt, and orange zest; stir until dough forms a shaggy mass. Knead in the saucepan, adding more flour if needed, until dough is no longer sticky, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Turn dough out on a floured surface. Knead, adding more flour if needed, until smooth and springy, about 7 minutes.
- Place dough in a large greased bowl, turning to coat. Cover with a damp kitchen towel or piece of plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm area until somewhat puffy, about 1 hour.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place dough on the baking sheet. Cover lightly with the towel or plastic wrap. Let rise until puffy, about 1 hour 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Bake in the preheated oven until browned, 35 to 40 minutes. Bread will sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.

- Pour the orange juice over the currants and let them soak while you measure out the remaining ingredients.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the water, beer, molasses, yeast, orange zest, butter, salt, ginger, and seeds. Weigh your flour; or measure it by gently spooning it into a cup, then sweeping off any excess. Add the rye flour and mix thoroughly. Pour the orange juice from the soaked currants into the mixture, keeping the currants aside for the moment. Add the all-purpose flour 1 cup at a time, mixing until the dough absorbs the flour thoroughly. If you’re mixing by hand, set 1/2 cup of flour aside to use to flour your board and your hands as you knead. Mix in the currants.
- Deflate the dough, shape it into a ball, and place it in a greased 8" round cake pan. Tent the loaf with greased plastic or your favorite reusable wrap, leaving plenty of rising room. Let it rise it for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until it's puffy but not quite doubled. Toward the end of the rising time, preheat the oven to 375°F.

- To make the rye sourdough starter, mix the buttermilk and rye flour well in a bowl, cover and leave at room temperature for 3 days. It’s important that it doesn’t develop mold, but starts bubbling, and a temperature of 23–25ºC/73–77ºF is ideal for this.
- If making your first loaf from the starter, dissolve all the starter in the lukewarm water in a large mixing bowl (for the next loaf use just 3 Tbsp of the starter; the whole quantity of starter is just for the first attempt, and the loaf will be a little bigger). Stir in the salt and rye flour, cover the bowl with a tea towel and leave at room temperature for 12–24 hours. After you have taken out the 3 Tbsp for the next rye bread you are going to make, this starter does not need taking care of. Just let it rest in the refrigerator until next time you need it.
- Add the cracked rye and cold water to the dough mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until smooth. It will be too runny to knead. Remove 3 Tbsp of the mixture to an airtight container and refrigerate; this will become your sourdough starter for the next loaf you make (it will need to rest for at least 3 days before you use it, and will last up to 8 weeks).
- Lightly oil a large loaf tin, about 30 x 10cm/12 x 4in and 10cm/4in deep. Pour in the dough, cover with a damp tea towel and leave to rise for 3–6 hours, or until the dough has almost reached the top of the tin.
