I don’t spend a lot of time following recipies.  I find variations of the 1-2-3 work great for me.  This is a bake with onion water, 25% rye flour with add ins 

100 gr rye starter

200 gr onion water - dehydrated onions steeped overnight

40 gr rye flour and 260 gr of bread flour 

2% salt

tablespoon of vwg

tablespoon of onions from the overnight steep

fennel, caraway. Sunflower and black sesame seeds 

bulk, shape and 24 hours in the fridge - coated with a cornstarch glaze 

this is really good, blt for lunch tomorrow

I find the 1/2/3 is so easy and works perfectly for me. I can adjust it any way I want with add ins, size based on my levain and flour combinations

Beautiful crumb and oven spring on that loaf Glenn.  So similar but much taller than my onion deli rye I baked recently.  Super nice with great inclusions.

I really like the onion flavour. I loosely followed your great bake.  I threw in a couple spoonfuls of the soaked onion as well. For anyone that is worried the onion would be overpowering, in my opinion it is perfect..
