Jewish Sour Rye

Inspired by Moe’s comment about not being able to good rye bread as well as requests from some of my customers for a good seeded rye bread. From their comments it seemed what they were looking for was likely a light caraway rye and not a dark 100% rye. So with that in mind I looked through my archives for something that might suit and came across a formula for Jewish Sour Rye that I hadn’t made since 2014. Notes from that bake said it came from this site possibly by way of the cookbook Secrets of a Jewish Bakery.
