Wholegrain rye sourdough sculpted into a loaf and ready for proofing and baking.
.
This is my hubby’s staple loaf. 2 days a week he takes our son to the school he loves. It’s an hour by train; too far to return home, so he spends the day in cafes and parks, working. He is powered to a great extent by the rye sourdough I make. He’s got two thick slices of it in his lunch box today.

If there’s any of this loaf left, I love to steal a bit and make Russian-style fermented bread kvass. If you like rye and you like fizz, it’s really fun to make and drink. I written up how I do it as this month’s cookup. You can find instructions via the link in my profile.
