Recipe by Debra47: New York Rye Bread/saved
Great flavor.
Had to make this twice. First time came out a little denser than I like.
Second time assumed a typo in the amount of yeast and used tablespoons instead of teaspoons.
Came out wonderful. Good rise. Nice and fluffy like sandwich bread with a little heavier crust. Good tight grain.
Whizzed it up in the food processor.
Mother doesn't like rye bread so I get this one all to myself.
Hand kneaded. Used 4.5x8.5 1.5L Pyrex bread pan to get taller sides. Baked at 375F for 40 minutes. Preheated oven to 425F then lowered temp when loaf went in. At 30 minutes loaf wasn't quite done (175F) although the crust was browned up nicely.

What a beautiful loaf of rye bread! Good job on converting a bread machine recipe to the good old fashioned way of making bread!

Came back from the store to find mother munching on a piece of the rye. I would have eaten the crust but she discarded them in the oval file. :\

I'm getting close to the end of my rye flour supply. Can't find it in any of the local stores anymore. What's up with that!? :\

That's interesting. I looked online and it seems there was a rye flour shortage in 2008. Wonder if its happening again?

You could always order it online if you get desperate :)

Finally found a 2# bag at Kroger in the next town over for the same price a 5# bag should be priced.

Sounds like there is another shortage. I think a lot of rye is grown in Oklahoma. Maybe its because of the drought?
