Instructions:

For the rye bread, mix all dry ingredients. Dissolve the yeast in lukewarm water. Mix all ingredients and knead for about 10 minutes. Cover and let rest for about 1/2 hour.

Shape the dough into a roll. Place end down in well-floured proofing basket (or bowl with floured cloth) and sift some rye flour on top.

Let rise for about 3/4 hr (until cracks appear on the surface). Heat the oven to 230 °C using an ovenproof container. After the rising time, transfer the bread to the baking tray. Add water to the hot vessel to create enough steam.

Push the bread in, reduce the heat to 185 °C. Bake for 50-55 minutes. The bread must sound hollow on the underside, otherwise bake a few minutes longer. Let the rye bread cool well on a rack.
