Notes

I think the notes people include in their recipes make them more personal. If I write a note myself about a recipe, it will always be written in purple.

Limpa Rye Bread

Limpa Rye Bread
By Elizabeth Yetter, About.com Guide

Yield: two small, round loaves

* 1 Tbsp active dry yeast
* 1 cup warm water, 95 to 110 degrees F
* 1/4 liquid cup molasses
* 1 large orange, grated zest and juice
* 1/3 cup sugar
* 1 Tbsp salt
* 2 Tbsp butter, soft
* 2-1/2 cups rye flour
* 2-1/2 cups bread flour, about

1. Mix yeast and warm water in large bowl until yeast is dissolved. Mix in molasses and the grated zest and juice from one large orange. Mix in sugar, salt, butter, and rye flour. Mix in enough bread flour to make a stiff dough.

2. Turn dough out onto lightly floured board and knead for about 8 minutes. Put dough in greased bowl and turn dough over so that dough is lightly greased on top. Cover and let rise in warm, draft-free place for 45 minutes or until double in size. Punch down dough and knead on floured board for 5 minutes. Divide dough into 2 equal parts. Form each half into round loaf. Grease large baking sheet and place both round loaves on sheet. Cover and let rise in warm, draft-free place for about 30 minutes or until double in size.

3. Bake at 375 degrees F for 30 minutes or until bread sounds hollow when tapped on. Remove loaves from baking sheet and let cool on wire rack.
