Instructions

  1. 1 In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 cup rye flour with 1/4 cup water to make a thick paste. Cover with a damp cloth, and set aside at room temperature for 24 hours.
  2. 2 Stir well, and discard 1/2 of the rye flour paste. Stir 1/2 cup rye flour and 1/4 cup water into the remainder. Cover with a damp cloth, and set aside at room temperature for 24 hours. Repeat for day three.
  3. 3 Some activity should now be noticeable: the starter should be bubbly. Stir well. Measure starter, and transfer to a 1 quart glass jar. Stir in amounts of water and bread flour equal to the amount of starter. Add more water until the starter resembles a thick but pourable batter. Set aside for 24 hours.
  4. 4 Starter should be very active with lots of bubbles in the batter. Stir well. Measure, and return 1 cup starter to the jar. Begin feeding regularly, every 4 to 6 hours, doubling the starter each time. For instance, if you have 1 cup starter, add 1 cup bread flour and 1 cup water.

  1. 1 Scald milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to bubble, about 3 minutes. Cool to lukewarm.
  2. 2 While milk is cooling, dissolve yeast in warm water in a bowl. Let stand until yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 5 minutes.
  3. 3 Transfer milk to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough attachment. Add brown sugar, melted shortening, molasses, and salt; mix until well combined. Mix in yeast mixture. Gradually mix in rye flour, then bread flour until combined; you may need to mix by hand if your stand mixer isn't large enough.
  4. 4 Transfer dough to a greased bowl and turn to coat the surface. Cover with a damp towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
  5. 5 Punch down dough and transfer to a lightly floured board. Knead until dough is elastic and does not stick to the board. Let rest for 5 minutes. Divide into thirds and shape into loaves. Place each loaf in a greased 9x5-inch loaf pan. Cover with a damp towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, 30 to 45 minutes.
