New York Rye Bread (with photo)

[Katya]

I make it using Greek yoghurt, and it even works with the 2% fat version

I loved this and now I'm making it gain with caraway. I have no yoghurt though so we shall see how it turns out!

You could substitute sour cream.

I love this bread too.

Thanks for the heads up on this bread CC and Cookie. I didn't end up making the other one. I'm up to about the 4th loaf of this. Everyone loves it except DH I don't like caraway seeds so I used poppy seeds instead.
Lovely recipe thanks Farfallina

I don't use any seeds at all. I like the caraway but DH doesn't.

I am happy you enjoyed it djinni373 
I like using seeds but I agree with cookie, it is not a must.

I made this today using greek yoghurt.  Haven't cut it yet but it looks and smells yummy.

Love this recipe,  thanks again Farfallina.  Have been having it cut thin and toasted for breakfast.

[farfallina]

My pleasure achookwoman :*
I enjoy it toasted too for my brunches.

Additionally, when i wouldn't be able to finish it for some reason  (even if it stores quite long) i cut it into thin slices and place in my freezer.
I toast when needed

[achookwoman]

Thanks Farfallina.  Doesn't last long enough to freeze.

Ooh, as a new Thermy owner, who hasn't yet attempted bread, I can't wait to try this.  I have dry yeast in the cupboard, could this be used instead of fresh?  And would the quantities be the same?

[cookie1]

It's usually half as much. I use 2 teaspoons of dry yeast for this recipe.

[renatatas]

Thanks cookie1 - will give it a whirl over the weekend.

I made this today with dark rye, fresh yeast, molasses and caraway seeds. My loaf doesn't look as pretty, but DH and DD  have helped themselves to seconds and I don't think it will last very long at all. DD toasted a slice and declared that it was nice and crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I'm sure I will be making this again

[Cornish Cream]

Wow ES That looks a perfect crispy crunchy crust.
