Try This Wheat and Rye Sourdough Bread

Hey there! I know it’s been a while, but I’ve been working on a fun new recipe. It took some time for me to get it just right. I think I’ve finally got it to where I want it. I am proud to present: 50/50 wheat and rye sourdough bread.

Yeah, the name is kind of a mouthful. But then again, so each slice of my loaf. It tastes incredible.

A Fun Balance of Flavors

It’s the perfect blend of whole wheat flour and rye flour, so it has a lot of fiber and flavor. Due to the flours involved, it is a little more dense than the sourdough loaves you might see on Instagram and Pinterest, but that just means it’s perfect for pastrami or Reuben sandwiches.

There’s no all-purpose flour in this loaf, so it is a bit difficult to manage if you have no experience with sourdough. However, I do provide step-by-step pictures, timing recommendations, and troubleshooting tips so even a beginning baker can make one of these loaves.
