Ingredients
- 2 1/4 CUP BREAD FLOUR
- 3/4 CUP RYE FLOUR
- 1 1/4 TSP TABLE SALT
- 1/2 TSP YEAST
- 1 1/3 CUP COOL WATER ( I USE ABOUT 13 OZ )
Directions
-
IN MEDIUM BOWL STIR TOG FLOURS, SALT, AND YEAST. ADD WATER AND WITH WOODEN SPOON MIX UNTIL YOU HAVE A WET, STICKY DOUGH, ABOUT 30 SECONDS.
-
COVER THE BOWL AET SIT AT ROOM TEMP UNTIL THE SURFACE IS DOTTED WITH BUBBLES AN THE DOUGH IS MORE THAN DOUBLED IN SIZE 12 – 18 HOURS.
-
WHEN 1ST RISE IS COMPLETE USSE A BOWL SCRAPER OR SPATULA AND LIFT THE EDGES OF THE DOUGH TO TRY TO GET A ROUND BALL TO TRANSFER TO A FLOURED TEA TOWEL OR SILPAT . DUST WITH FLOUR SO IT’S NOT TOO TACKY. LET RISE FOR 1 – 2 HOURS.
-
PREHEAT OVEN TO 475 DEGREES. PUT A 4 – 5 QUART POT WITH A COVER IN THE OVEN WHEN YOU PREHEAT.
-
CAREFULLY TAKE THE POT OUT AND SORT OF ROLL THE DOUGH INTO THE HOT POT. COVER FOR THE FIRST 30 MINUTES. TAKE THE COVER OFF FOR THE LAST 15 – 30 MINUTES. (I HAVE FOUND THAT IT TAKES ABOUT 15 MINUTES MORE NOT 30 MINUTES WITH THE COVER OFF.
