Instructions

  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.
  6. 6 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  7. 7 Bake loaves in the preheated oven until golden brown on top, 35 to 40 minutes.

  1. 1 Place water, olive oil, bread flour, salt, sugar, and yeast into a bread machine in the order listed, or follow the order recommended by the manufacturer if different. Run the Dough cycle, about 90 minutes.
  2. 2 Remove dough from the machine after the cycle is done. It will be quite sticky and wet; resist the temptation to add more flour. Place dough onto a generously floured board, cover with a large bowl or greased plastic wrap, and let rest for 15 minutes.
  3. 3 Lightly flour two baking sheets or line them with parchment paper. Cut dough with a serrated knife into two equal pieces; form each into piece into a 3x14-inch oval. Tranfer loaves to the prepared baking sheets and dust lightly with flour. Cover and let rise in a draft-free place for approximately 45 minutes.
  4. 4 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  5. 5 Spritz loaves with water, then place onto the middle rack of the preheated oven. Bake until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes.

Instructions

  1. 1 First, make the sourdough starter. Crumble the yeast into a large bowl. Whisk in 1 quart of warm water and 2 tablespoons of sugar until dissolved. The water should be just slightly warmer than body temperature. Gradually whisk in 4 cups of flour, continuing to mix until all lumps are gone. Cover with a dish towel, and let sit for 24 hours at room temperature.
  2. 2 After 24 hours, stir well, cover, and let stand another 24 hours. It will be a thin, light-colored sourdough which is then ready to use.
  3. 3 In a large bowl, stir together the rye flour, remaining 4 cups of all-purpose flour, salt and sugar. Mix in the sourdough starter using a wooden spoon, then stir in 2 cups of warm water. I transfer the dough to a heavy-duty stand mixer to mix the first couple of minutes, then it can't handle the heavy dough and I start using my hands by turning the dough out onto a floured surface. A clean countertop works best. Knead the dough, adding a few tablespoons of water at a time if it is too stiff. Fold the dough over, pull it apart, whatever you can do to get it kneaded up good. Total kneading time should be 15 to 20 minutes to get a smooth dough. Place the dough in a large bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled, 1 to 2 hours.
  4. 4 When the dough has risen, scrape it out of the bowl and back onto a floured surface. Knead for about 5 minutes. This is important to activate the gluten. Shape into 1 or 2 long loaves. Place on baking sheets, and let rise for about 1 hour, or until your finger leaves an impression when you poke the bread gently.
  5. 5 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Bake the bread for about 45 minutes for 2 loaves, 1 1/2 hours if you made one big loaf. Don't worry if the crust is dark. The bread will be delicious and so will the crust. Cool completely before cutting. I always freeze half.

  1. 1 Place flour into a large bowl and make a well in the center. Crumble fresh yeast into the well, then pour in lukewarm milk. Mix yeast and milk together in the well to combine, leaving flour untouched. Cover and let sit in a warm place until foamy, about 15 minutes.
  2. 2 Mix a little flour at a time into yeast mixture until no flour remains. Add butter, sugar, and salt; knead until a soft, pliable dough forms. Cover with a clean dish towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
  3. 3 Grease a baking sheet with butter. Roll dough on a lightly floured surface into a thin rectangle.
  4. 4 Make the filling: Place ground poppy seeds into a bowl. Pour hot milk over top, then add sugar, raisins, honey, vanilla sugar, lemon zest, and rum. Stir until well combined.
  5. 5 Spread filling over dough. Start at a longer edge, and roll dough up and over filling into a log; press the seam together with your fingers to seal. Place the log, seam-side down, onto the prepared baking sheet. Cover and let rise for 20 minutes.
  6. 6 Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  3. 3 Turn out dough onto a floured work surface and sprinkle with flour; roll into an 18x18-inch square. Brush off excess flour. Peel 1 piece waxed paper from one side butter square; diagonally center on dough (butter-side down) so it looks like a diamond sitting on a square. Peel off remaining 1 piece waxed paper. Fold dough corners over butter square like an envelope, fully enclosing it; gently press seams to seal.
  4. 4 Roll out dough, seam-side down, on a floured work surface into a 12x24-inch rectangle. Fold dough in half into a 12x12-inch square; fold in half again, into a 6x12-inch square. Chill about 5 minutes. Roll dough into a 12x24-inch rectangle; repeat folding into a 12x12-inch square then into a 6x12-inch square, as above. Chill about 5 minutes. Repeat rolling and folding, as above, once more. Refrigerate dough 1 hour to overnight.
  5. 5 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  6. 6 Combine almond filling, ½ cup softened butter, and ½ cup sugar in a bowl; set filling aside.
  7. 7 Cut dough in half. Roll out 1 piece dough on a floured work surface into a 30x9-inch rectangle; cut into three 30x3-inch strips. Spread ½ filling down center of dough strips. Fold strips over filling lengthwise; pinch dough to enclose filling.
  8. 8 Braid ropes together; arrange braid in a coil. Pinch end closed. Repeat with remaining 1 piece dough and remaining ½ filling.

Instructions

  1. 1 Place yeast into the bottom of a large mixing bowl. Add water and stir, then mix in salt. Add flour and beat with a wooden spoon until dough is thick and sticky and pulls flour from the side of the bowl, 5 to 10 minutes.
  2. 2 Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let stand in a turned-off oven until doubled in volume, 12 to 14 hours. Dough will be bubbly and very sticky.
  3. 3 Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat and dust generously with cornmeal.
  4. 4 Use a floured spatula to scrape dough out onto a well-floured work surface. Dust dough with flour. With well-floured hands, pat dough into a rectangle. Cut the rectangle into four equal pieces.
  5. 5 Dust one piece of dough with flour and stretch it with floured fingers into a log about 10 inches long and 1 1/2 inches around. Gently transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Wipe off excess cornmeal with a damp paper towel if desired. Repeat with another piece of dough. (Reserve remaining dough to bake later or prepare another baking sheet to bake all four loaves at once).
  6. 6 Dust loaves lightly with flour. Dust a large piece of plastic wrap with flour and drape it lightly over the baking sheet with the floured side down. Let loaves rise, covered, until doubled in volume, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
  7. 7 Set the oven racks to the bottom and middle positions and preheat to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C) or as high as your oven will go. Place an oven-proof baking dish full of water onto the bottom rack of the oven.
  8. 8 Cut four or five angled slashes into the top of each loaf with sharp kitchen shears. Poke down any sharp tips of dough left by the scissors. Spray the loaves with water, using a spray bottle.
  9. 9 Bake in the preheated oven until baguettes are browned, about 15 minutes, spraying loaves with water after 5 minutes and 10 minutes. Turn the pan around on the second spraying.
  10. 10 Transfer baguettes to a cooling rack and let cool to room temperature before slicing with a serrated knife.
