   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
      1/2           cup  packed light brown sugar
      1/4           cup  dark molasses
      1/4           cup  butter -- cubed
   2        tablespoons  grated orange zest
   1 1/2      teaspoons  salt
   1           teaspoon  anise seed -- lightly crushed
   1                cup  boiling water
   1                cup  cold water
   2           packages  active dry yeast -- (1/4 oz each)
      1/2           cup  warm water -- (110 to 115F)
   4 1/2           cups  all-purpose flour
   3               cups  rye flour -- to 4C
   2        tablespoons  cornmeal
   2        tablespoons  butter -- melted

Orange and anise give it a subtle, but wonderful flavor.

Prep: 30 min. + rising
Bake: 30 min.
Yield: 2 loaves (12 slices each).

In a large bowl, combine brown sugar, molasses, butter, orange zest, 
salt, aniseed and boiling water; stir until brown sugar is dissolved 
and butter is melted. Stir in cold water; let stand until mixture 
cools to 110 to 115F.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Stir in 
molasses mixture; mix well. Add all-purpose flour and 1 cup rye 
flour. Beat on medium speed 3 minutes. Stir in enough remaining rye 
flour to form a stiff dough.

Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6 
to 8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the 
top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.

Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide in 
half. Shape into two oval loaves. Grease two baking sheets and 
sprinkle lightly with cornmeal. Place loaves on prepared pans. Cover 
and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350F. With a sharp knife, make four shallow slashes 
across top of each loaf. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until golden brown. 
Remove to wire racks; brush with butter.
