Caraway Beer Bread

This is the third recipe I have been asked to test from the upcoming Rye Bread baking book by Stan Ginsberg.  The beer is not too overpowering and the crumb is fairly moist for this hydration level of bread.  Overall a nice rye bread that makes a nice sandwich with some pastrami or corned beef.

of re that goes great with some kind of smoked meat!  This one looks great inside and out.  Another reason to by Stan's upcoming rye bread book.  Nice baking Ian.  Lucy says Hi to her 7 buddies.

Thanks DA.  Lexie and Max agree....so far we're very happy with all of the recipes.  Hi to Lucy from the Sandman clan.  Sprouted wheat to be baked later today.

That's a nice looking loaf Ian. Perfect crumb for a sandwich loaf and it looks well made too. I'd like to see the recipe / formula...

regards,
Michael

Thanks Michael.  Unfortunately you will have to wait until the book is published or I would have to suffer the "Spanish Inquisition" :)
