While the idea of rye and sauerkraut bread may seem odd, it is a lovely combination. I feel extra accomplished because this bread was made with homemade sauerkraut! The kraut adds moisture to this bread. It's reminiscent of my Onion Bread. This bread is adopted from the New Complete Book of Bread.
It is a quicker bread than most as there is a single rise - directly in the pans the bread will be baked in.

ReplyDeleteRye with sauerkraut sounds like an amaaaaazing bread combination to me! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds awesome.
ReplyDeleteThe combination of rye and sauerkraut makes perfect sense! Like a rueben, but meat free :) I would probably toast this up, slather it with dijon and sliced pickles. What a gorgeous recipe!
ReplyDeleteAre you kidding? This is genius! I only use a bread machine these days (lazy) so I hope I can figure out a way to make this!
ReplyDeleteFantastic taste combination. A must try!
