Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the rye flour, all-purpose flour, beetroot puree, sourdough starter, water, honey, salt, caraway seeds, and active dry yeast. Mix well until a sticky dough forms.
  2. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes, until the dough becomes smooth and elastic.
  3. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rest in a warm place for 2 hours, or until doubled in size.
  4. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  5. Punch down the dough to release any air bubbles and shape it into a round loaf. Place the loaf on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Cover the loaf with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise for another 30 minutes.
  7. Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  8. Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
