Sourdough rye bread has amazing flavor with deep and complex tones that pair with sourdough so well! This German inspired bread is a perfect beginner sourdough baker recipe.
1. Mix the dry ingredients, which include rye flour and all-purpose flour, and add warm water, salt, and sourdough starter to it. Mix these ingredients together in a large bowl with a wooden spoon or stand mixer with a dough hook.
4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and allow it a bulk fermentation time of 5-8 hours depending on the temperature of your kitchen. Look for the dough to increase in volume by about 30-50%.
