Black Bread Method
In a large mixing bowl combine
3 cups all purpose flour and 1 cup of rye flour, bran cereal,
yeast, coffee crystals, caraway seeds, sugar, salt and fennel
seeds. In a saucepan heat water, molasses, margarine, chocolate
and vinegar until warm stirring constantly until chocolate
and margarine are almost melted. Add liquid to dry ingredients
in a mixing bowl and beat for 1/2 minutes at low speed scraping
sides of bowl constantly. Then beat 3 minutes on high. By
hand stir in remaining rye flour and enough of the all purpose
flour to make a moderately stiff dough. Turn out onto a lightly
floured surface and knead 8 minutes or until smooth and elastic.
Dough may be slightly sticky.
Shape into a ball and place in a greased bowl turning once
to grease the surface. Cover and let rise in warm place for
1/2 hour or until almost doubled. Punch dough down and divide
in half. Shape each half into a ball and place on a greased
baking sheet. Flatten slightly with the palm of your hand.
Cover and let rise in warm place 40 minutes or until doubled.
Bake the Russian Black Bread in a 375 degree oven for 50 to
60 minutes or until browned and bread sounds hollow when tapped.
Remove from baking sheet and cool on wire rack. In a small
saucepan combine cornstarch and cold water and cook and stir
until mixture thickens and bubbles. Cook a minute more and
brush over the hot bread.
Enjoy your freshly made Russian
Black Bread!
