Rye breads is a traditional Eastern European bread formula. It's still popular across Russia, Germany and the Baltic expresses. This was generally due to the fact that rye grains were easy to grow in bitter climates and not just grew well on farms but in the wild as well.For this menu we're going to look at a rye bakery made out of 100% rye flour. This was the traditional formula used across Eastern Europe due to the fact that rye turf was hardy and easy to grow in bitter weather, and often grew in the wild.You have to know that rye flour does not have quite a lot of gluten which cause yeast to expand and increase a loaf of bakery. The result is that you will end up with an extremely heavy and thick loaf of breads. It will still have an outstanding taste but don't be disappointed if the loaf will not rise and is also very dense. You should also know that rye flour is not gluten free, it simply lacks the same amount of gluten that you find in bread flour, all-purpose flour, and wheat flour.This rye bread recipe can be produced in your breads machine using the complete wheat setting. If you have a 100% whole wheat grains setting that's even better. It has a great flavor and works effectively as a base for an appetizer or canape and really should be sliced thin.One extreme caution is that might be this recipe does not coalesce into a dough ball in your breads machine like other breads made with more traditional flours. You will have to lift the cover during the early kneading process and thrust the rye dough on the kneading paddle from time to time to create the dough ball. Stick with it throughout the kneading process. If you need to, removed the dough ball from the skillet and form it into a dough ball with your hands and drop it back into the bread pan.
