Swedish Rye Bread II image

An aromatic rye bread with a hint of orange and honey. A friend gave me a loaf of this bread as a hostess gift and was thoughtful enough to pass along the recipe.

Time 3h40m

Yield 36

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
1 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
4 ½ cups hot water
¾ cup honey
3 tablespoons salt
1 cup white sugar
3 tablespoons orange zest
1 ½ tablespoons caraway seed
6 tablespoons butter, softened
7 ½ cups rye flour
7 ½ cups all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in the warm (110 degree F) water. Let sit until creamy, about 10 minutes.
  • Pour the hot water in a large mixing bowl, add the honey, salt, sugar, orange zest, caraway seeds and butter; briefly stir. Let cool to lukewarm.
  • Combine the yeast mixture with the honey orange mixture. Stir in the rye flour. Mix the bread flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until the dough comes together. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and supple, about 8 minutes. Lightly oil a large mixing bowl. Place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour. Meanwhile, lightly grease three 9x5 inch loaf pans.
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide into three equal pieces. Form each piece into a loaf and place in prepared pans. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the top of the loaves are golden and the bottoms sound hollow when tapped.

I've made this bread several times now and it always turns out perfect. It's a great bread for sandwiches, toast, or just eating plain.

This bread is delicious! I love the crispy crust and the soft, chewy interior. The flavor is perfect, with a slight tang from the rye flour.

This bread is a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor is good. I might try using less rye flour next time.
