Tips:

Rye flour is rich in fiber, essential minerals, and antioxidants, making it a healthier choice compared to all-purpose flour.
Use lukewarm water to activate the yeast and ensure proper fermentation. Cold water inhibits the yeast's action, while hot water kills it.
If you don't have caraway seeds, you can substitute them with fennel seeds or anise seeds for a similar flavor profile.
For a crispier crust, brush the top of the loaf with water before baking. This creates steam during the initial baking stage, promoting a golden-brown crust.
Let the bread cool completely before slicing it. Slicing warm bread can result in a gummy texture.

Conclusion:

Crusty rye bread is a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed on its own, toasted, or used in sandwiches. With a slightly sour flavor and a dense, chewy texture, this bread is a great accompaniment to soups, stews, and salads. Whether you're a seasoned baker or just starting out, this recipe will guide you through the process of creating a flavorful and satisfying loaf of rye bread in your bread machine. So, gather your ingredients, preheat your oven, and let's embark on this baking adventure together!
