Servings: 1
Ingredients:
1 cup water
1 cup sourdough starter
3 cups bread flour
1/2 cup rye flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 package active dry yeast
Directions:
1. Add ingredients to bread machine pan according to manufacturer's directions.
2. Select dough cycle.
3. Scrape dough onto a board coated generously with bread flour. Taking care not to puncture or tear dough surface (interior is sticky), pat dough gently with floured hands to form a round loaf about 8 inches wide; do not knead. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons bread flour over dough.
4. Slide a pastry scraper or wide spatula under loaf to loosen, then lift quickly and carefully onto a buttered 14- by 17-inch baking sheet. Pat to reshape loaf, if necessary.
5. Lightly cover loaf with plastic wrap and let stand until puffy, about 30 minutes. Remove plastic.
6. With a floured razor blade or very sharp knife, cut 2 to 3 slashes about 1/2 inch deep across top of loaf.
7. Bake in a 425ยบ oven until richly browned, 25 to 30 minutes.
8. Transfer loaf to a rack to cool at least 15 minutes before slicing. Serve hot, warm, or cool.
9. To make a 2-pound loaf, use 1 1/3 cups water, 1 1/3 cups sourdough starter, 4 cups bread flour, 2/3 cup rye flour, 4 teaspoons sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 package active dry yeast.
10. Nutritional analysis per ounce.
