Discussion: This bread is a creation of my own inspired by some of the past rye breads with scalds.  It consists of ~58% rye and the remainder bread flour which makes for a lighter crumb than the last few ryes I've baked. The added Brotgewürz spice mix is a nice flavor enhancer to the sour rye taste of the crumb and the crust has a surprising crunch to it  along with a slight roasted flavor. I have to say this is a nice bread to enjoy with almost all kinds of light cheeses and meats.

 

Make again? - Yes definitely.
