NY Delistyle Rye from Peter Reinharts's ABED
I LOVE this bread!!! I recently made two full batches with onion sliced so fine it disappears in the crumb. This time I followed the recipe to a T, for a change.
One of my best friends had a birthday recently and I thought the best thing I could send him was some New York style deli rye. I sent big Tom a loaf a year ago. Now Tom is well over 300 lbs and said the loaf lasted about two hours. Tom is also the best non commercial chef I have ever known with a gifted natural touch in the kitchen.
This time I sent him a couple of large 825g boules and one 560g boules, frozen and packaged and mailed express post. Mailed at 4:00 pm Monday it's credit Canada Post delivered the package to Tom today at 2:00 pm! His comment was, " I just had my first slice with butter and it is spectacular!"
Hey flattery will get you everywhere friends!!!
Happy baking, Ski

I've looked through this book and the only rye recipe I found was the 'Soft Rye Sandwich Bread' which has things like Molasses and vegetable oil in. I read the recipe and it doesn't sound like it would produce a loaf like this one. Can you share the recipe for this loaf?
Mr. Reinharts Bread Baker's Apprentice. I have both books and forgot which one this formula came from.
