Re the request for Bavarian rye bread - the recipe for those
ubiquitous rolls must be a very common recipe, but where do you find
it? Many thanks to Lars Forss for the petras-brotkasten link, which
led to other highly interesting sites as well. But even there, I
didn't find (though I could have missed it) a likely recipe for what
I suspect is an easier commercial recipe? Seems to me most of the
recipes in the blogs and books are for more serious traditional rye breads.
Today I came across this recipe for a Joe Ortiz bread I haven't tried
-- I have the book, and it is a German recipe -- that looks from the
blog photos as if it has some of the same qualities? Not the same
thing perhaps, but rolled in a seedier crust (sunflower seed kernels,
pumpkin seed kernels are what I remember), perhaps with some malt
additive, possibly in the same ballpark?
I realize it would be more helpful if I baked this before posting,
but it won't happen soon and I'd like to respond -- Jolie's question
interests me too, and perhaps someone else has more feedback -- while
the topic is still
current:
