4 c Rye flour
3 c All-purpose flour
1 t Granulated sugar
2 ts Salt
2 c 100 percent bran cereal
2 tb Caraway seed, crushed
2 ts Instant coffee granules
2 ts Onion powder
1/2 ts Fennel seed, crushed
2 pk Dry active yeast
2 1/2 c Water
1/4 c Vinegar
1/4 c Dark molasses
1 oz Unsweetened chocolate
1/4 c Butter or margarine (1/2
-stick)
1 t Cornstarch
1/2 c Cold water
Combine rye and all-purpose flour, set aside. In large
bowl thoroughly mix 2 1/3 cups flour mixture, sugar,
salt, cereal, caraway seed, instant coffee granules,
onion powder, fennel seed and yeast.
Combine water, vinegar, molasses, chocolate and butter
in saucepan. Warm over low heat. Gradually add to dry
ingredients. Beat at medium speed with electric mixer
for 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally.
Add 1/2 cup flour mixture. Beat at high speed 2
minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Stir in enough
additional flour mixture to make soft dough.
Turn out on lightly floured board. Cover dough with
bowl. Let rest 15 minutes. Then knead until smooth and
elastic, about 10 to 15 minutes. (Dough will be
sticky.) Place in greased bowl, turning to grease top.
Cover and let rise in warm place, free from drafts,
until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
Divide dough in half, form into 2 loaves and place in
9-by-5- inch loaf pans. Or form into 2 round balls and
place on greased baking sheet.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake 45 to 50 minutes or
until bread sounds hollow when tapped on the top.
Meanwhile, combine cornstarch and 1/2 cup cold water.
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until
mixture boils. Stir constantly for 1 minute. As soon
as bread is baked, brush cornstarch mixture over tops
of loaves. Return bread to oven. Bake 2 to 3 minutes
or until glaze is set. Remove from pans. Cool on wire
racks.
Makes 2 loaves.
From the Oregonian's FOODday, 1/5/93.
