POLISH BEER RYE BREAD
Rye breads are so inherent to the cuisine of Poland that the word chleb, which trans-
lates to “bread,” is what every loaf that has even a small amount of rye flour in it is
called. Since my tester Mary Anne is Polish and rye breads are her favorite, we had to
make a rye that combined the complex rye flavor with a very savory sourdough-like
aroma during baking, just like in a professional bakery. This is a very light rye, so it is
good for sandwiches. This bread garners raves!
