I have my grandmother’s rye bread recipe, but no directions. Her is very very similar to yours. So, following your directions, I did manage after a couple trials to turn out a loaf that is about as close as I think I’m going to get to hers.
Grandma’s bread was a sweet rye like yours, molasses and brown sugar, very similar amounts. But hers was much more dense than what I got following your directions, the dough was way too sticky to knead properly, and the load baked up well but very tender and almost a cake like texture. Very good, but not what I was looking for. Doing a little more research, I decided to try it with literally no kneading. Just mixed it very well in the bowl, turned it into an oiled bowl to rise, then punched it down, panned it till sufficiently risen again, then baked it. Came out about perfect! Now I’m going to try your recipe too. Thanks for the help!
