Dark Silesian Rye
This first bread is the dark Silesian rye from Leader's Local Breads. I like how the loaf looks, and it tastes and smells wonderful like good rye breads do.
This next loaf was a whole wheat and rye sandwich loaf that I brushed with olive oil. It had a nice texture and was great spread with hummus or used for sandwiches.
Finally, I made the whole wheat sandwich bread from Reinhart's Bread Revolution. I made a few substitutions: soy milk instead of cow's, maple syrup instead of granulated sugar, sourdough instead of instant yeast. While I didn't like the dense texture, they tasted nice.

Hi George - I've been wanting to try that Dark Silesian rye. I have Local Breads and have only baked the Polish Cottage Rye so far. Your beautiful example convinces me I have to give it a go. Thank you!
happy baking,
Cherie
Thanks for the kind comments :). Pretty much all the rye breads from Local Breads are great. Though, I haven't had success with the Auvergn rye.
