Time 2h30m

Yield 1 large loaf, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 (1/4 ounce) packages quick-rising yeast
1 1/4 cups tepid water (about 105*)
1 cup rye flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 cup dark molasses
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon caraway seed
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 cups plus 2 tblsp. flour
2 tablespoons cornmeal

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the yeast and warm water; let stand until softened, about 5 minutes. Add rye and whole-wheat flours, molasses, cocoa, caraway seeds, and salt. With an electric mixer, or heavy spoon, beat dough until it is mixed very well.
  • If using a dough hook, mix in 1 cup of flour. Knead until the dough is elastic and pulls cleanly from the bowl, about 5 minutes.(If needed,add more flour, ! Tblsp. at a time.).
  • If mixing by hand, stir in 1 cup flour with a heavy spoon. Scape the dough onto a floured board. Knead, adding as little flour as possible, until the dough is smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.Place the dough on a plastic counter and cover with a large stain-less steel bowl. Allow the dough to rise until double in bulk, about 1 hour.
  • Sprinkle the cornmeal in the center of a baking sheet; set aside. Punch down the dough. On a lightly floured board, knead the dough to shape into a ball. Place the dough on the cornmeal and press to form a 6-inch round. Let the dough rise in a warm place until almost double, about 30 minutes.
  • Sprinle a bit of additional flour on top of the loaf. Bake in a 350* oven until the loaf is a rich, dark brown, about 30 minutes, or until the bottom sounds hollow when tapped. Transfer to a cooling rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
  • Hint: For a Crunchy Bread Crust use a water sprayer while baking. Your plant sprayer will do fine, as long as it is clean. Simply spray a bit of water into the oven now and then as the bread bakes. Works great!

This bread is a bit too dense for my taste. I prefer a lighter, more airy bread. However, the flavor is good, and it's perfect for sandwiches.

This bread is delicious! I love the rich, slightly tangy flavor. It's perfect for sandwiches or just eating on its own. I'll definitely be making this again.

This bread was a complete disaster! It was so dense and dry, I couldn't even eat it.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I would have preferred a simpler recipe.

This bread was a bit too sour for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had used less sourdough starter.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my bread didn't turn out as dark as the picture. It was still good, but I was a bit disappointed.

This pumpernickel bread turned out great! The flavor was rich and slightly tangy, and the texture was dense and chewy, just like I like it. I'll definitely be making this again.
