Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour plus additional
1 cup whole-wheat flour
1/3 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1/4 cup toasted wheat germ
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon caraway seeds
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter, cut into bits, plus 1 stick (1/2cup) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons well-shaken buttermilk
1/2 pound thinly sliced smoked salmon
1 bunch fresh chives, trimmed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Whisk together flours, oats, wheat germ, baking soda, salt, and caraway seeds in a large bowl. Blend in 3/4 stick cold butter with your fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add buttermilk and stir until dough is evenly moistened. Knead dough on a lightly floured surface, dusting with flour to prevent sticking, 1 minute (dough should remain soft and slightly sticky). Shape dough into a ball.
  • Pat out dough on a lightly floured baking sheet into a 7-inch round. Dust dough with flour and spread lightly over round with your fingertips. Cut a 4- to 5-inch X (1/2inch deep) in top of dough.
  • Bake in middle of oven until bread sounds hollow when tapped on bottom, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool on a rack 2 hours before slicing.
  • Make canapés with bread, softened butter, salmon, chives, and pepper to taste.

This bread is a bit too heavy for my taste. I prefer a lighter bread.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my bread turned out a little dry. I think I might have overbaked it.

I love the combination of sweet and salty in this dish. The bread is slightly sweet, while the smoked salmon is salty and briny. Together, they create a flavor that is both complex and satisfying.

This bread is a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor is good. I think I would prefer it with a lighter bread.

I'm not a huge fan of smoked salmon, but this bread was still really good. The bread itself is very flavorful and the smoked salmon adds a nice touch of saltiness.
