German whole Rye

From Maurizio Leo's The Perfect Loaf. Baked this morning - will slice tomorrow to see if I've avoided the dreaded flying crust

Well done, that looks wonderful and I’m sure will taste amazing.

I just searched Maurizio's website for a German rye and found nothing.  What recipe did you use?

Looking forward to seeing photos of the crumb.

Happy baking.

It's from his new book 'The Perfect Loaf'. I borrowed it from the local library but I'll probably buy it. Very detailed recipes for some  fairly complex breads. This is the first 100% rye loaf I have ever baked.

Patsy, thanks for the clarification.  Maurizio does a nice job on his website, and I should probably get a copy of his book.

Post photos of the crumb when you slice it.  Is this a 24-hour wait until slicing type of rye bread?
