Comments
The finished product, Rose, Levy, Beranbaums original formula. Good oven spring, smells divine. Tomorrow we will see if the Tang Zung makes any difference.
Looks good, tastes good, with a decidedly chewy texture. I think, I did very well. Not sure I even need to try and improve on this. Like they say, if its not broke, don't fix it. Smile.
Give yourself a pat on the back, since the rest of us are out of reach.

we are available by mail order, though :)
great looking rye. Congrats
Thanks guys! I even got the shape of the N.Y. rye I am use to. Which brings me to my question, would anyone know if Rose, Levy, Beranbaum, has any relation to the Levys of supermarket Jewish rye fame?
