I'm in the mood for 100% whole rye sourdough

Borodinsky is an option but open to ideas and recipes. I have currants, pecans, flaxseed, sunflower and sesame seeds, molasses and ground coriander. 

Looking forward to your ideas.

Go with Josy Baker's "Dark Mountain Rye", fabulous bread. When I visited "the Mill" I asked Josey after having this bread if the recipe they use in the bakery is the same as in the book and he said: Yes. I think you can find his book on the internet somewhere.

 

Happy baking!

I was putting together the Borodinsky when you posted. Was running out of time and if I didn't start now it'd be too late for the build and scald etc. But thank you for the recommendation and I'm going to look for the recipe. Perhaps I can work in a midweek bake or if not then it'll be next weekend's venture. Sort of left it last minute for posting on TFL but it's been a while since I've done a rye stint and the next few weeks will be centred around rye sourdough.

The Rye Baker, by Stanley Ginsberg, at the library.  I also picked up about 8 other books as well so I haven't been through it yet, but if you can find a copy I'd  bet there's a formula in there that would suit your fancy.
