Is this still a rye bread?
Total rye is close to 30%. the swirl is 66% and the white is about 15%. Has the texture of chewy white bread. Both use a rye sour and was levaned.with yeast. bread and first clear was the balance of flour.
What passes as a rye bread in many places outside of Europe where rye is a staple then i'd certainly say this qualifies more so.
Lovely loaf. Have it with some deli meats - but only on the rye swirl ;)
If you like fluffy bread, there was still some rye flavor with an excellent crunchy crust. My wife said “finally” when I made it. Personally, I like to feel like I’m sinking my teeth into something when I bite into a slice of bread.
