100% whole wheat bread & sauerkraut rye loaf
Posted by Celine on November 25, 2007
I’ve been using the bread machine lately since the temperature is a bit low [somehow I'm still reluctant to turn the big oven on, choosing the toaster oven or small appliances instead]. besides, we haven’t been eating a lot of bread. since it’s only the two of us and that a lot of the husband’s meals are taken outside during the week, it’s hard to finish up a loaf of bread in the two days it’s at its best. plus if it’s around, we’ll choose it over stuff like rice/pasta/potatoes and variety’s good. so there you go.
for once, I remembered to remove the little paddle once the kneading was done, so that the slices don’t fall apart when the bread is cut.
as usual, it’s absolutely do-able without a machine and you can see the how-to here.
both 1 1/2lb loaf recipes are adapted from Betty Crocker’s Bread Machine Cookbook…
100% whole wheat bread
1 1/4 cup unsweetened soy milk, reheated a bit if stored in the fridge
2 T vegan margarine
3 cups whole wheat flour
3 T wheat germ
4 t vital wheat gluten
2 T light brown sugar, packed
1 1/2 t sea salt
2 t bread machine yeast
place ingredients in bread pan following manufacturer’s instructions. select WHOLE WHEAT cycle.
let cool on a rack before slicing.
I found the following recipe for sauerkraut bread, and since I just opened a jar of it [love it, it's almost as good as the one I'm used to back where I'm from], I figure I’ll make some soon.
sauerkraut rye bread
1 cup well-drained sauerkraut
3/4 cups pure water
1 T molasses
1 T vegan margarine
1 cup dark rye flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 1/4 cups bread flour
4 t vital wheat gluten
2 T light brown sugar, packed
1 t sea salt
1 1/2 t bread machine yeast
same instructions as previous bread.

Oh wow, new layout?
That sauerkraut rye sounds pretty good, and I kind of have to make it, because I’m living in Germany, right?

Celine, how did you know? Since I saw an add for sauerkraut bread in the bakery next to our house I wanted to make some but was way too lazy to look for a decent recipe that didn’t have too many weird ingredients (like sauerkraut juice…). You totally read my mind. Thank you!
Awesome new layout by the way.

carbs! my favorite. haha. I haven’t made bread in a while, I really should cause storebought bread can get expensive since it’s so hard to find brands without honey. I love the new layout, by the way.

Shhh! I’m at the library. and supposed to be researching, not visiting yummy blogs! But I just had to say those recipes look wonderful. I love the idea of sauerkraut bread, because it’s such a cool way of using up the sauerkraut in the big bag I’m about to open.
/Ok, back to work.
