QUICK SWEDISH RYE BREAD



Quick Swedish Rye Bread image

This all-rye bread, called matbrod or "food bread" in Sweden, is incredibly simple to make. The cumin seeds impart a unique but delicious flavour. You could use caraway seeds instead. Recipe found in Canadian House and Home and is from Jeffrey Alford and Naomi Duguid's Home Baking: The Artful Mix of Flour and Tradition Around the World (2003 Random House Canada).

SWEDISH RYE BREAD



Swedish Rye Bread image

Another blue ribbon bread. This bread is hearty, but not heavy, has a nice flavor, and makes great sandwiches. It is not as easy and light to knead as my white bread... maybe it builds muscles! We all love this bread, my mother especially loved it. This freezes well, if you want to save the second loaf for another time.

Time 5h

Yield 2 loaves

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 ounce dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water (110 degrees F)
1/4 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup dark molasses
1 tablespoon salt
2 tablespoons shortening (Crisco)
1 1/2 cups hot water
2 1/2 cups rye flour
3 tablespoons caraway seeds
4 cups unbleached flour, sifted or 4 cups bread flour

Steps:

  • Put warm water into glass measuring (1) cup and check temperature with thermometer.
  • Sprinkle yeast into warm water and let stand.
  • In another glass measuring cup (2 cup) place water and Crisco.
  • Microwave to hot, to melt fat.
  • In a large bowl, combine sugar, molasses, and salt.
  • Pour the Crisco water into bowl. (I usually pour it into, over the bowl, the 1/4 measuring cup I had the sugar, then the molasses inches To get all of the goodies into the bowl!).
  • Stir until sugar dissolves.
  • Cool to lukewarm (85°F It will probably cool to that as you dissolve the sugar, you just don't want to kill the yeast with too high a temp.).
  • Stir in rye flour and beat well. (I use my electric hand mixer).
  • Add yeast and caraway seed, and mix well.
  • Stir in enough regular flour to make a soft dough.
  • Cover with clean towel and let rest for 10 minutes.
  • Generously sprinkle kneading surface with flour.
  • Knead for 10 minutes.
  • Place dough in lightly greased bowl and turn to coat all surfaces.
  • Cover and let rise in warm draft free space, until doubled, about 2 hours.
  • Punch down.
  • Turn out onto lightly floured surface.
  • Divide in two (I use a bread knife to slice the ball in half).
  • Shape each piece into smooth ball, cover, and let rest 10 minutes (this is called proofing).
  • Form each into two round loaves, and place on greased baking sheet.
  • Cover and let rise in warm place (I put them in oven with the light on) until doubled again, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • If you put them in oven to rise, make sure you take them out before lighting oven!
  • Bake at 375°F for about 30 minutes.
  • If loaves are getting too brown, you may cover with foil near the end of baking.
  • Brush tops, when done, with butter for a soft crust.

SWEDISH RYE



Swedish Rye image

Categories     Bread     Sandwich     Bake     Rye     Chill     Boil

Yield makes two 1-pound loaves or 1 large loaf

Number Of Ingredients 17

Sponge
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons (7 ounces) water
2 1/2 tablespoons (1.75 ounces) molasses
1 tablespoon (.33 ounce) dried orange peel or 1 teaspoon (.17 ounce) orange oil
1 teaspoon (.11 ounce) ground aniseeds
1 teaspoon (.11 ounce) ground fennel seeds
1 teaspoon (.11 ounce) ground cardamom
1 cup (7 ounces) barm (page 230)
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons (5 ounces) white rye flour
Dough
2 1/2 cups (11.25 ounces) unbleached high-gluten, clear, or bread flour
2 teaspoons (.22 ounce) instant yeast
1 1/2 teaspoons (.38 ounce) salt
4 1/2 tablespoons (2.25 ounces) firmly packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons (1 ounce) shortening, melted and kept warm, or vegetable oil, warmed
Semolina flour or cornmeal for dusting
1 egg white, whisked until frothy, for egg wash (optional)

Steps:

  • The day before making the bread, make the sponge. Combine the water, molasses, orange peel, aniseeds, fennel seeds, and cardamom in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil and then turn off the heat. Cool to lukewarm. Stir in the barm and rye flour until the flour is fully hydrated and evenly distributed. This should make a thick sponge. Cover with plastic wrap and ferment at room temperature for 4 hours, or until the mixture becomes foamy. Refrigerate overnight.
  • The next day, remove the sponge from the refrigerator 1 hour before making the bread dough to take off the chill.
  • To make the dough, in a 4-quart mixing bowl (or in the bowl of an electric mixer), stir together the flour, yeast, salt, and brown sugar. Add the sponge and the melted shortening. Mix with a large metal spoon (or on low speed for 1 minute with the paddle attachment) until the dough forms a ball. Sprinkle flour on the counter, transfer the dough to the counter, and begin kneading (or mix on medium speed with the dough hook) for approximately 4 minutes. Adjust with additional high-gluten (not rye) flour, if needed. The dough should be slightly tacky but not sticky. Do not overknead, as the rye flour will become gummy. The entire kneading or mixing process should be completed within 6 minutes. The dough should pass the windowpane test (page 58) and register 77° to 81°F. Lightly oil a large bowl and transfer the dough to the bowl, rolling it to coat it with oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap.
  • Ferment at room temperature for about 2 hours, or until the dough doubles in size.
  • Remove the dough from the bowl and knead for 1 minute to degas. Divide the dough in half for 1-pound loaves (or leave intact for a 2-pound loaf). Shape the dough into sandwich loaves (page 81) or bâtards (page 73) for freestanding loaves. Lightly oil two 8 1/2 by 4 1/2-inch pans or one 9 by 5-inch pan; for freestanding loaves, line a large sheet pan with baking parchment and sprinkle with cornmeal or semolina flour. Transfer the loaves to the pan(s) and score the top of the loaves with 3 parallel slashes as shown on page 90. Mist the loaves with spray oil and cover loosely with plastic wrap or a food-grade plastic bag.
  • Proof at room temperature for approximately 90 minutes, or until the dough crests 1 inch above the bread pans at the center, or rises 1 1/2 times its original size for freestanding loaves.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. For freestanding loaves, brush the egg wash over the surface of the dough just prior to baking. This is optional for loaf-pan breads.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, then rotate the pan(s) 180 degrees for even baking. Continue to bake for 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the size of the loaves. They should register 190°F in the center, be a light golden brown, and make a hollow sound when thumped on the bottom. If the sides are still white or soft, return the bread to the oven to finish.
  • When the loaves are finished baking, immediately remove them from the pans and cool on a rack for at least 1 hour before slicing or serving.
  • BREAD PROFILE
  • Enriched, standard dough; indirect method; commercial yeast
  • DAYS TO MAKE: 2
  • Day 1: 4 hours sponge
  • Day 2: 1 hour to de-chill sponge; 6 minutes mixing; 3 1/2 hours fermentation, shaping, and proofing; 35 to 50 minutes baking
  • Commentary
  • By being scored before the final proofing the breads take on a different look than when scored just prior to baking, as is customary for most breads. The cuts fill in during the rising period and spread out. When the bread bakes, it seems as if the cuts have healed, leaving behind a different shade of crust where the cuts were made.

  • Mix sugar, corn syrup, shortening, aniseed, coriander, orange peel and salt into sponge. Gradually mix in enough all purpose flour, 1/2 cup at a time, to form slightly sticky dough. Knead on floured surface until smooth and elastic, adding more flour if sticky, about 10 minutes.
  • Lightly oil large bowl. Add dough, turning to coat entire surface. Cover bowl with kitchen towel. Let dough rise in warm draft-free area until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
  • Grease 2 cookie sheets. Punch dough down. Turn out onto lightly floured surface and knead until smooth. Divide dough into 3 parts. Pat each piece into 5-inch-diameter round. Place on prepared sheets. Cover and let rise in warm draft-free area until almost doubled, about 40 minutes.
