Ingredients
5 cups whole wheat flour3 cups rye flour1/2 Tsp sea salt2 tbsp oil (optional)Water (about 4 cups)
Directions
Combine flour and salt. Mix well. Add oil, if desired, (I didn't use any) and mix well with hands. Gradually add water to form a ball of dough. Knead about 350 times, adding flour as needed as dough becomes sticky (it becomes QUITE sticky). Oil 2 bread pans with light sesame oil. Divide dough in half and shape into loaves. Place in pans and press down around the edges to round the loaves. Make a shallow slit in the top center of each loaf. Lightly brush loaves with sesame oil and cover with a warm damp cloth or dish towel.
Allow to sit 8-10 hours in a warm place. (I used the top of the fridge). Bake at 300 degrees for about 30 minutes and about 350 for 1 1/4 hours. Allow to cool and slice. You may add a few caraway seeds to this recipe for a different flavor. This bread is really chewy. Very satisfying to eat in that regard;-)
