German bread

I moved to the US from Germany and figured out the easiest way to get good bread is doing it on my own.
You also can use just whole wheat flour or put in for example pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds or onions.
This is just a simple and fast ground mix, vary it as you like.
Once it is done let it rest for ten minutes then cut a few slices and add butter and a little bit salt ;-)
You also can toast it the next day and do sandwiches.
Don't put it in a plastic bag, just cover it so it doesn't dry out completely till you ate it all.
My grandma used to do bread soup with the dry leftovers, for this best cut it in slices and let it dry...

Dark Bread Dark Bread
A savory dark bread we used dipping into our chili. If you use vinegar in this recipe remember it's acidic. Acid counters yeast and hinder it's rising, but it also counters gluten and breaks it down and cause it to become very sticky and a bit harder to work with. It's a welcomed flavour to this bread. A couple of tablespoons of vinegar about 3% acidity would be nice. skunkmonkey101 -
