Dutch Oven No-Knead Rye Bread

I also make a rye using the same Lahey/no knead method. I make the assumption you are already hip to the no knead method of bread making.

3c. bread flour
1c. rye flour
1/2 tbs salt
1/3 tsp yeast
Some caraway seeds if you like them
Wisk together

2c. warm water
1tbs. molasses
1tbs. sour cream
Wisk together

Proceed as for no knead. See Amazon for a bread wisk if you don't have one. And bake in your Griswold #8 dutch oven, of course.

Oh, I like an egg white wash just before baking for effect.
 
It's what I use but we like our bread a little on the salty side. Perhaps I should have reduced it for a wider audience. Anyway, let your own tastes be your guide. Oh, the sour cream may seem a little unusual but I feel it gives it a bit of a bite and contributes to a more open texture.
