Rye Report
Rye toast for breakfast – and the report is that it’s quite good. For a first attempt it was excellent, I say albeit a bit biased! I think it needed a little more slashing and steaming in the baking to allow for more oven spring. And it needed an egg wash to keep the caraway seeds attached. This is really just window dressing – the real deal are inside the dough, but still. Crust good, crumb ok, (a hair dense which would fix with more spring-ability).
Worth doing and easy eating.
Snow day here in eastern upstate NY. Mom reminded me that I should “let he who put it there, take it away.” Probably can do that this time of year with an inch or so of snow – who knows what tomorrow will bring.
