PRE- SAINT PATRICK'S DAY...RUEBEN SOUP...SERVED IN A RYE SOURDOUGH BREAD BOWL...USING THE TARTINE METHOD....

hi gang,

a little pre saint patrick's day...my wife is half irish...she came up with this recipe for a RUEBEN SOUP...served in a rye bread bowl...we used the tartine french country bread recipe...but substituted 300g of rye flour for 100g of wheat and 175g of the white flour....and added some king arthur rye chops and deli rye flavor to the dough...chad's recipe is fool proof if you follow the measurements... thank you chad for the continued inspiration...and thank you fresh loaf for giving us a place to share the goodness...if you are interested please check out my wife's food blog..a lot of pictures...

will tell you that Irishmen will be drinking Guinness, Bemish (My favorite being from Cork long ago) and Murphy's among other local dark beers that just can't be made or turned green - St Paddy'd day or no.  So we can excuse green no green beer.  In fact, if it is green, it isn't worth drinking :-)  Still, you got to love good food served in bread bowls.  Never goes out of style.

are from Cork.  I'm from the Ozarks.  When Iwas tin Cork last, I looked up some long lost relatives and drank Beamish with them for a couple of days.  That's about all I remember.  Cork is one fine place to drink Beamish.  I like all Irish Stouts - Guinnes, Beamish and Murphy's depending on where in Ireland you are at the time - and there are many smaller breweries too.

I will be doing a multi-layered, checkerboard, green and brown, complicated looking, stout bread in the shape of an Irish Harp for St Paddy's day  or it could be very interesting looking ash tray - if I get too smashed first! Better do it the day before just to be safe.

da is fine.

done on the 16th but it will probably look more like a large croissant than a harp frame.  Wouldn't know how to do the strings .
