  • Yeah, it’s entirely unnecessary. Next time, no seeds (they also make a hell of a mess) and no pause in baking.

    Inside is pretty good, although affected by the collapse in the top. Such a good a healthy bread packed with seeds!

  • Just came here to ask the same thing. I'm trying to cut down on bread but that looks like a good weekend project.

  • Yes it goes like this

    Day one:
    1 liter of lukewarm water
    200g Sourdough
    500g wheat flour
    500g rye flour
    Mix and leave covered on the table

    Day two: 8-24 hours later - the longer the more sour. I do 8 hours.

    Take out a portion of sourdough for next time
    Mix in:
    15g salt
    330g of mixed seeds (I use 110 grams of each of: pumpkin, flax and hemp plus some chia) if I’m low on one I top up with whatever like sunflower etc.
    330g cut rye
    1 malt beer (330ml)

    Mix and pour into 2 baking trays (I use 2x3L ones). Leave for 30 minutes.

    Baking:
    1 hour @100 degrees then turn up the oven to 180 degrees and bake for another hour and a half.

    Do you have an active sourdough culture?
    On day 0 I activate mine by taking two spoonful of sourdough from last baking session, mix it with 100ml lukewarm water, 50g of rye flour and 50g of wheat and leave on the table.
    After 6-24 hours it ready for use.
