Pan de centeno con semillas de alcaravea
Por lo general, para Navidad, simplemente compro cosas para el hogar que necesitamos. Este año, visité diferentes tiendas de productos étnicos y compré distintas harinas para preparar panes especiales. Adquirí harinas de Grecia, Ucrania, Macedonia del Norte y Turquía.
Rye bread with Caraway seeds
Usually for Christmas, I just buy things for home that we need. This year, I went to different ethnic stores, and I bought different flours to make special breads. I bought flour from Greece, Ukraine, North Macedonia, Turkey, and Ukraine.
This bread is made with Ukrainian Rye flour. It is a very simple bread, but with caraway seeds, it ended up very delicious!
Rye bread with Caraway seeds
2 cups of Ukrainian Rye flour
1 cup of bread flour
100 grams of sourdough 100% hydration
1/2 teaspoon of dry yeast
1 cup of warm water (more or less depending on the flour)
1 teaspoon of honey
1 teaspoon of salt
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoon of caraway seeds
Mix the water with yeast, sourdough, and honey. Let it foam for 10 minutes. Add the apple cider vinegar, flours, caraway seeds, and salt. Kneading it well for 7 minutes. Let it rise at room temperature for 6 hours, folding it all sides every one hour. Place it ion the fridge overnight.
Take the bread out of the fridge, and shape it in a ball. Let it stay at room temperature for 2 hours. Bake it in a preheated oven at 450F for 40 minutes, or until it reaches 204F in the bread interior. ENJOY!
